Nine questions about Liberland, the world's newest (possibly fake) country
Last week, the world got a new country: The Free Republic of Liberland, officially founded on April 13th, 2015. There’s a new flag, a national anthem, and a provisional government, although it’s still not clear whether it’s a real country, or how it might become one. It’s all pretty confusing, so we’ve put together a quick guide to the story so far.
What is Liberland?
It’s a new country, occupying 7 square kilometers of no man’s land in southeastern Europe. There are no taxes and no governmental services. The country’s president described Liberland as a country as a way to “find out the minimum amount of taxes and regulation needed to live.”
So this is a weird libertarian thing?
Yes! The country has minimal-to-nonexistent government…
