Premise false. Parsing of question terminated.

All islands you might buy are parts of existing countries (with existing
country codes)

A better plan might be to incite a country-dividing civil war somewhere, and
fund it sufficiently with your lottery winnings that a new independent
country is formed in the aftermath. You might not want to live there during
the process, though.
