Can someone explain the definition of Micronation? Molossia is not a real country?

All the facts are true expect for the title. Micronations are not countries. A quick google for smallest country turns up plenty of lists for smallest countries. The State of the Vatican City is, as far as I've seen, unanimously agreed upon to be the smallest country.
