C.Y. 18 Puan independence referendum

The C.Y. 18 Puan independence referendum was a referendum held on 30 Anary, C.Y. 18 in the (at-the-time) Taatiklarian territory of Pua on whether or not to become an independent country. The island territory of about 100 people was separated from the rest of the country by the Pua Channel, and due to the lack of any major crossing over it in the early days of Cypriot history as well as technological barriers, the area was very isolated from the rest of the country, especially in the areas away from its capital and largest city of Aqaina.

Pua ultimately voted narrowly to gain independence from Taatiklatar with a 42 vote (52%) majority voting to do so, and a 39 vote (48%) minority voting to remain.

Pua would remain an independent country until C.Y. 85, when it voted to rejoin Taatiklatar.
