Recent history
Bokak (as the "Taongi Islands") has been claimed as extraterritorial by the "Government of the Dominion of Melchizedek", a controversial entity, aspiring to ecclesiastical statehood, that has a history of licensing banks that defraud investors. The only basis for this disputed claim seems to be related to a "sovereign master lease" granted by the Iroijlaplap of Taongi Atoll.
