The building is still in the same spot, just not a part of the country anymore.

All the people in it are no longer citizens, and your ex-country’s government seems to not want that specific building in their borders again for some reason.

    Become a Sovereign Citizen, literally.

    Then proceeds to get invaded by America 1 nanosecond after this happens (cuz I’d be surrounded and landlocked by the USA).

    And if I shoot at the invaders, I’d could technically I trigger NATO Article 5.

    So I’d be dead, very very dead

    There is a movie that kind of approaches this concept-- the Terminal. The main guy, while in the airport, sees his country erupt in a war on TV and his nation is dissolved. He can’t go back since all flights to and fro have been canceled. He hasn’t passed customs, so he isn’t legally in the country. So he kind of has to live off the facilities in the airport.

    I work from home, so I guess I can stop paying taxes? It’s not like I was thinking I’d get a real retirement anyway.

      You can’t even work anymore, pretty sure any work permission you had is no longer valid since your legal status is gone.

        You need passport to go through checkpoint if your country didn’t have free movement between country, which mean if no one set up an immigration checkpoint at my home for me to get through then i would’ve been an illegal immigrant.

    I would still have my other citizenship, so I would plant a flag and claim it for my homeland, ignoring any other residents who may be present, as is tradition. Bonus: free healthcare.
