Around the World in 18 days.
Impossible.
No!
Huge tracts of land are set aside to be developed in the image of destinations wishful, yet beyond reach.
The subdivisions of the Park are to be actual sovereign territories of the Nations purchasing them. (the nether Netherlands?)
You Will need a passport to move between one "country" and another, but for your amusement, The Tourist's experience of France is but a quarter miles walk from The Tourist's experience of Spain.
Crossing from "France" to "Spain" you will have to go thru customs, but you won't have to deal with some of the things you would have if you were a traveler from halfway across the globe.
18 days to experience the languages, food, government border crossing, art, money, dress, & all the rest of more than you could ever see in less.
Each "border crossing" will let you change currency.
Around the World in 18 days.

       How do they get the heroin, hookers, and free speech into Little Amsterdam when those things are illegal outside?
—Galbinus_Caeli, Apr 05 2007
   

       If there's an airport there, you can fly from Amsterdam to Little Amsterdam without going through customs.

       I think the surrounding country would be concerned about these overflying supply flights.
—Galbinus_Caeli, Apr 05 2007
   

       I don't think heroin is legal in Amsterdam either.

       "Germany doesn't smell like that!"
- my mom, visting "Germany" in Disneyworld, Orlando, FL.		   

       I'd be more interested on the adjacent area of fictitious nations - utopias of various stripes, the lost kingdom of Atlantis, whatever the people living inside the hollow earth are called, Klingons, the perfect Islamic state, and the Marxist-Leninist worker's paradise.

       For Small World, I only waited in line 18 hours.
