unreferenced date March 2011 Ocean colonization is the theory and practice of permanent human settlement of oceans. Such settlements may float on the surface of the water, or be secured to the ocean floor, or exist in an intermediate position. One primary advantage of ocean colonization is the expansion of livable area. Additionally, it might offer various other possible benefits such as expanded resource access, novel forms of governance for instance micronations , and new recreational activities. Many lessons learned from ocean colonization will likely prove applicable to space colonization. The ocean may prove simpler to colonize than space and thus occur first, providing a proving ground for the latter. In particular, the issue of sovereignty may bear many similarities between ocean and space colonization adjustments to social life under harsher circumstances would apply similarly to the ocean and to space and many technologies may have uses in both environments.
