Liberland Overview:
Liberland, officially the Free Republic of Liberland, is a micronation claiming a parcel of disputed land on the western bank of the Danube river, between Croatia and Serbia.
It was first proclaimed on 13 April 2015 by Czech right-libertarian politician and activist Vít Jedlička.
It is a very Crypto Currency friendly nation!!!
Below are pieces from my post from April 2017 - when I blogged on Liberland's 2nd Anniversary Party / Celebration:
This is the 2nd Anniversary celebration week for Liberland! ( April, 2017) Events are already underway and the bulk of the official celebration events start this coming Friday (about 4 days from now) with lots of speakers, food and vacation packages available, and a lot more.
The first/main image from this post is something I made up today, from an actual screen capture for the event, from the official event website page. (The one with the boat)
Please browse the resources named in this post, to learn more about the event and Liberland itself. Many people still have not heard of Liberland even in the Freedom/Liberty community.
I have done my best to give a brief overview of everything here for the event/celebration week, and for Liberland itself.
Here is my overview I did this past winter on Liberland since many have not heard of it, and I wanted to keep it simple for people to learn/understand - and get a base of info quickly on this.
Brief Overview of Liberland: (WikiPedia and from what I know myself also)
Liberland, officially the Free Republic of Liberland, is a micronation claiming a parcel of disputed land on the western bank of the Danube river, between Croatia and Serbia. It was first proclaimed on 13 April 2015 by Czech right-libertarian politician and activist Vít Jedlička.
The official website of Liberland states that the nation was created due to the ongoing Croatia–Serbia border dispute. There has been no diplomatic recognition of Liberland by any country from the United Nations.
Vit is actually a friend of mine on Social Media, which is pretty neat since I value what he stands for a lot. I decided to give a more personal photo of him today rather than the usual screen grabs you find when you search for public figures for images and info.
Formation of Liberland (From the Liberland official website named here)
Free Republic of Liberland (hereinafter “Liberland”) is a sovereign state located between Croatia and Serbia on the west bank of the Danube river. The nearest towns are Zmajevac (Croatia) and Bački Monoštor (Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, Serbia). On some maps, this area is referred to as “Gornja Siga”.
Liberland came into existence due to a border dispute between Croatia and Serbia.
This area along the west bank of the Danube river is not claimed by Croatia, Serbia or any other country. It was therefore terra nullius, a no man’s land, until Vít Jedlička seized the opportunity and on 13 April 2015 formed a new state in this territory – Liberland.
The boundary was defined so as not to interfere with the territory of Croatia or Serbia. Its total area of approximately 7 km² is now the third smallest sovereign state, after the Vatican and Monaco. For more information regarding the border dispute between Croatia and Serbia see an article on Wikipedia.
The motto of Liberland is “To live and let live” because Liberland prides itself on personal and economic freedom of its people, which is guaranteed by the Constitution, which significantly limits the power of politicians so they could not interfere too much in the freedoms of the Liberland nation.

Presidential Message / Update: (Unedited)
Dear Barry Dutton,
Summer in Liberland is close to an end and I am excited to share with you our progress on multiple fronts. Liberland has become easier to access, and we had important international media such as ZDF (Germany) Al Jazeera and several documentary teams visiting Liberland. Now it is possible to stay in Liberland (or next to it depending on the security situation) comfortably on board our ship Liberty. We have the first opening of the ship to the public on September 9. We are also looking forward to select the first permanent crew to stay there.
I had an enormously successful visit to the USA and delivered a keynote speech at the ALEC conference. The American Legislative Exchange Council is America’s largest nonpartisan, voluntary membership organization of state legislators. Our project received standing ovations! I am coming back to the USA in late September to build more support in the US Congress and also to meet with delegations coming for the UN General Assembly.
We had the honor to be invited to the UNPO general assembly in the Scottish Parliament. We gathered a lot of support in the organisation and we plan to become a member of our first international organisation soon.
Our Economic Council and ICO advisory team was joined by new key experts such as the famous Michael Arrington, founder of CrouchFund and Propy CEO Natalia Karayaneva. Important Blockchain startup Univesa headed by Alexander Borodich, dedicated five percent of their funding to the Liberland Future Fund.

Liberland Chess Team won over Ivory Coast 7:1
Liberbeer placed 2nd in Serbian beer competition and will be produced in Serbia soon
