 Encyclopedia: List of countries
I think we could create a third list (apart from countries of the world and extint countries, of nationalities whose terriotories lay in one or several countries, but for which there is at least a fraction of that population wanting to be a country of its own.
First of all, let me point out that I don't necessarily see a need to include Sealand on the list; however, noone has given a good reason yet why it shouldn't be listed (in particular, you didn't when I asked about this on your talk page a couple of days ago).
Anyway I don't believe sealand should be on that list, not because of its size, but because it appears to still be unclear if it can legally be considered a country or not.

As amended in 1893, this list refers to the three islands and surrounding islets in similar terms while taking into account the division of Sebatik on the basis of the 1891 Convention.
Under the Charter, the Company was authorized to “conclude conventions with Princes and Powers” of the region in the name of the States-General of the Netherlands.
The Court further recalls that it stated above that the words “the islets belonging thereto” can only be interpreted as referring to the small islands lying in the immediate vicinity of the three islands which are mentioned by name, and not to islands which are located at a distance of more than 40 nautical miles.
