Liberland

Supposedly, there are several small disputed areas between Serbia and Croatia, but a small area of roughly 7 sq km has been left unclaimed by both nations. A Czech citizen, Vít Jedlička, proclaimed a new state called Lieberland there two days ago, claiming it was allowed by international law as it was Terra Nullius.

This is great. I totally support the guy and I'm gonna apply for citizenship.

Although, the funniest variant is that Serbia recognize the country and declare war immediatelly after. We haven't won a war since WW2, so it would be good for morale.

EDIT: It's Liberland, not Lieberland. Curse me for getting the name of my new homeland wrong!

Funny.

This is one of those grand libertarian experiments, right? Like the abandoned oil-rig "states" in the ocean, and suchlike?

He envisages a libertarian country like Monaco, Lichtenstein and such...

Apply for citizenship early. They take anyone who doesn't have a criminal record. Get in while the going's good. We might be talking about a new Hong Kong here.

I just ask, that, since I broke the news to you guys, you vote for me in the next election.

I also promise state sponsored hosting for the .Org.

1. This is awesome. 2. Will they be ready for Euro 2020 qualification?

I kind of like the name considering Micronesia is taken...

All hail the newest multinational tax haven.

We also used to have our micronation, back in the 90s, until the police raided and executed all its population, giving us our first victory since WWI (or WWII, if Italians can be considered as being able to fight).
