UKA’s Mission
The United Kingdom of Atlantis was founded on a clear mission: to create a stable, progressive country built on principles of unity, innovation, and shared prosperity. Its name, drawn from the legendary Atlantis, is not a claim to the lost city but a symbol of renewal, strength, and a nation rising from a new beginning.
HRH Dr. Solomon U. Winning, a leader with both royal heritage and a background in diplomacy, envisioned UKA as a place where governance is transparent, citizens are empowered, and the economy thrives on modern ideas. The country’s constitution is designed to balance tradition with the demands of the modern world.

UKA Leadership
At the top of UKA’s political structure is the Royal Throne, occupied by HRH Dr. Solomon U. Winning. Alongside him, a council of ministers oversees day-to-day affairs, focusing on education, infrastructure, health, and international relations. He is also an African of Nigerian descent.
The government operates under a constitutional monarchy, meaning that while the king is the symbolic and unifying head, democratic institutions play a key role in policymaking. The emphasis is on collaboration between the throne, elected representatives, and local communities.
UKA Vision for the Future
UKA’s founding principles are clear:
- Economic Growth through Innovation – Encouraging entrepreneurship and foreign investment.
- Education for All – Building a system that equips citizens for both local and global opportunities.
- International Partnerships – Forging ties with other nations for trade, cultural exchange, and development.
- Cultural Preservation – Celebrating national identity while welcoming diversity.

Life in the UKA
The United Kingdom of Atlantis prides itself on being a nation of opportunity. Early reports from the capital city highlight growing infrastructure projects, modern housing developments, and plans for sustainable agriculture and energy.
Its population, though still small, is made up of citizens who share a sense of pride in building something from the ground up. Festivals and national events have already started to shape the country’s cultural calendar, blending traditional heritage with the energy of a new nation.
Citizenship
UKA is currently actively registering citizens, aiming for up to 5 million permanent citizens.
They plan to establish embassies post “physical conquering” of their territory, though they already have national-level ambassadors, including in Nigeria
The Global Stage
Since declaring its status, UKA has begun establishing diplomatic relations with other countries and international organizations. HRH Dr. Solomon U. Winning has been vocal about the nation’s openness to partnerships and its readiness to contribute positively to global discussions on development, climate change, and peace.
UKA Currency
The Atlantean Crown (ATC) is UKA’s official digital currency, established legally in early 2021. It functions through a dedicated digital wallet and is actively being promoted by government authorities and supported by the Royal Bank of UKA.

Why UKA Matters
In a world where borders are often inherited rather than created, the emergence of the United Kingdom of Atlantis is a reminder that nations can still be born with fresh ideas at their core. UKA is more than just a new name on the map; it’s a statement of purpose, a project in progress, and a vision of what a determined people can achieve under inspired leadership.
As its flag continues to fly higher, all eyes will be watching to see how UKA transforms its bold promises into lasting progress.
UKA Media Presence
The United Kwacha Alliance (UKA) maintains a media presence through various channels, including press briefings and social media engagement. They actively utilize Facebook to announce events, share updates, and disseminate their messages to the public. The party also emphasizes direct engagement with communities, as seen in their campaign activities in Dilika Ward.
