Would probably just declare himself his own country. Just needs his own currency (wait, didn't he do that already?), own military (it's handy to own a fleet of ICBMs with better guidance systems than anything the U.S. has), and own energy infrastructure.

He'd still need to buy/steal/conquer some territory. Plenty of terra nullius on Mars though.

Not currency, military and energy country constitute. People do.

Wouldn't be surprised if Musk would be happy ruling over a country with no people. Just robots who idolize him as their creator.
