Liberland Partners with Scrypta Foundation LIBERLAND PARTNERS WITH SCRYPTA FOUNDATION 19.05.2020 Today, in call conference Dr Tariq Abbasi KGCIOM MBE DL, Secretary of state, Republic of Liberland, Mr Carmine Spinali, Ambassador at Large, Republic of Liberland, Mr Alessandro Miccini, Board Member di Scrypta Foundation, announce the following: Liberland chooses Scrypta as main partner for the development of blockchain solutions on the entire State system The partnership between Liberland and Scrypta Foundation is a milestone that marks the birth of an unprecedented model of governance. The use and implementation of blockchain technology in the entire state management will drive improvement to security, transparency and integrity of any data, safeguarding the privacy of each actor involved and simultaneously raising the efficiency and sustainability of the system. Liberland aims to deeply innovate the relationship between citizens, businesses, stakeholders and institutions with the clear belief that a new relationship model between citizens, businesses and government is possible in which the decentralized and distributed logic of Scrypta Blockchain can promote transparency, security and data accessibility. The youngest and freest country in the world, as defined by Vít Jedlička, founder and President of Liberland, is a micronation of just 7sq km which stands on a strip of land between Serbia and Croatia, which aspires to economic liberalism and the transparency of socio-governmental processes. Vit Jedlička aims to simplify and speed up, as well as protect the security of the entire state process, through the partnership with Scrypta, from the voting to the judicial system, in all the interactions of daily community living, including in value transactions, securities and real estates, ultra-national business activities, and everything that concern value transfering. Scrypta Foundation | 259 St. Paul Street Valletta, MALTA | Nr. Reg: LPF-310 | VAT: 920032703 These are the words of the Secretary of State Dr Tariq Abbasi KGCIOM MBE DL: [...] is a partnership with extremely topical contents in an epochal situation in which the whole world will have to adopt a serious paradigm shift within civilian living communities, both public and private. The State of Liberty once again makes it a promoter as well as a virtuous example! [...] Ambassador Carmine Spinali, a careful connoisseur of international relations, says: [...] is an event of enormous importance, also for the relations between Liberland and Italy and I will be extremely determined to coordinate this process with the offices of the Government of Liberland as effectively as possible. Surely this phase 2, post pandemic, will meet excellence and avant-garde in innovative thinking: Liberland and Scrypta are in fact already in phase 4 [...] The choice to use the Scrypta infrastructure for their ambitious projects derives from the technological quality of a flexible, secure, decentralized system capable of creating complete architectures for unlimited projects and new use cases. https://scrypta.foundation [email protected] .

    Small States & Territories, Vol. 2, No. 2, 2019, pp. 183-194 Oecusse and the Sultanate of Occussi-Ambeno: Pranksterism, misrepresentation and micronationality Philip Hayward School of Communications University of Technology Sydney Australia [email protected] Abstract: Occussi-Ambeno, a fictional sultanate initially conceived by Aotearoan/New Zealander anarchist artist Bruce Grenville in 1968 and represented and developed by him and others over the last fifty years, is notable as both an early example of a virtual micronation (i.e. a type that does not attempt to enact itself within the physical territory it claims) and as an entity affixed to an entire pre-existent territory (in the case of the Sultanate of Occussi- Ambeno, that of Oecusse on the north-west coast of the island of Timor). The latter aspect is pertinent in that however imaginary the micronation is, its association with a region of a small state raises questions concerning the ethics of (mis)representation. This is particularly pertinent in the case of Oecusse, which was occupied by Indonesian forces in 1975 and had its distinct identity subsumed within the Indonesian state until Timor-Leste (and Oecusse as its exclave) successfully gained independence in 2002. Discussions in the article compare the anarcho- pranksterist impulse behind the creation of the Sultanate of Occussi-Ambeno and its manifestation in visual media – primarily through the design and production of ‘artistamps’ (faux postage stamps) – to related economic and socio-political contexts. Keywords: artistamps, Indonesia, micronation, misrepresentation, Occussi-Ambeno, Oecusse, Portugal, Timor, Timor Leste © 2019 – Islands and Small States Institute, University of Malta, Malta.

A Vít Jedlička úr által létrehozni kívánt állam nem példa nélküli törekvés: a jelenséget, amikor néhány fő – jellemzően egy család vagy baráti kör – egy vitatható jogállású területen saját szuverenitását deklarálja, törekvése szerint új államot hozva ezzel létre, mikronemzetként szokták leírni különböző népszerűsítő fórumokon.

Here are the most strange and evocative cases of a much wider practice than one can imagine: to declare the indepen- dence of a microscopic part of a territory and to proclaim oneself a king or a president, even if only in your own home. Few people know, for example, that in addition to San Marino and the Vatican, there are in Italy a country and an island that have absolute sovereignty over their territories, based on rights acquired before the unification of Italy; or that a nation has been founded in Australia to protect the rights of homosexuals, while in Africa and South America some “non-existent states” have declared independence for the sole purpose of issuing counterfeit treasury bonds. This series of documentaries wants to be an atlas of stories and characters, a geography of places halfway between reality and imagination. Places that often dissolve themselves with the disappearance of their founder. Small epics that, for better or for worse, lead to paroxysm the irreducible desire for independence and autonomy of human beings. ATLAS OF MICRONATION is articulated as a series of 8 self-conclusive episodes, each dedicated to the story of a single micronation.

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (But Still So Far): Assessing Liberland’s Claim of Statehood Gabriel Rossman Abstract This Comment analyzes the statehood aspirations of Liberland, a self-proclaimed microstate nestled on a tract of disputed territory between Serbia and Croatia. Customary international law, the Montevideo Criteria, and alternative modalities of recognition are discussed as potential avenues for Liberland to gain recognition. The theoretical and practical merits of these theories are explored. Ultimately, Liberland has two potential avenues for obtaining recognition. First, Liberland could convince the international community that the land it claims is terra nullius and satisfies the Montevideo Criteria. Second, Liberland could obtain constitutive recognition by the international community. It is unlikely that Liberland will be able to obtain recognition through either of these avenues.

For more than half a century, Sealand – a wind-lashed (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1538866/For-65m-your-very-own-nation.html), Second World War naval fort whose main platform, some 60ft above the North Sea, can only be reached by being winched up by crane – has seen off not only German advances but also those from the British government. Now, with increasing uncertainty about Brexit on the UK mainland, the sovereign state is receiving hundreds of applications for citizenship each week. According to Michael Bates, the principality’s 67-year-old prince, would-be Sealanders are inspired by the ruling family’s “desire for freedom from authority” – as well as its black passport, embossed with two crowned sea creatures.

Ár Päts means “Our Country.” And I founded our country – the Kingdom of Talossa – on December 26, 1979, when I was fourteen years old, in a public ceremony in my father’s living room in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The micronation of Talossa has been an amazing ride for 28 years. It all started when I was a high school sophomore learning German and dreaming of worlds beyond my boring home. The day after Christmas in 1979, I declared my bedroom to be its own “independent, sovereign country,” the Kingdom of Talossa, with me as its monarch, as well as its only citizen. This gave me the opportunity to draw maps and flags, and even to design my own Talossan language. Instead of dying out right away like it should have, the political adventure called Talossa has grown into a worldwide community of members from the US, Canada, Italy, France, Brazil, Argentina, and elsewhere.

Köztudott, ezért bizonyítani nem kell: a Teremtő női princípiuma, az anyagi világ megteremtője – szülője, kinek földi megtestesítője a SZENTKORONA. Az égi és földi létezők között született egyezségben minden létező a teremtőjének a tulajdona. Az ember és közösségei a Föld területéből tulajdont nem, kizárólag birtokot szerezhet, a természetes vizek területére birtokjog nem igényelhető. A földek és vizek tulajdonosát a SZENTKORONA képviseli, a Magyar Királyi Koronatanács által. Minden érték, ami a földben, a föld alatt és a föld felett van, a birtokost szolgálja. A birtokosok által vitatott területek visszatérnek a SZENTKORONA tulajdonába. A Szentkorona Országai által birtokolt terület a SZENTKORONA Föld és Birtokjog Regiszterébe bejegyzésre került. A SZENTKORONA tulajdonában levő területen a közösségek és magánszemélyek a jog szerint földhasználati és birtokjogot igényelhetnek. Ezt a szerződést felbontani, megmásítani, érvényét és hatályát elvitatni sem egyénnek, sem csoportnak, sem semmilyen emberi közösségnek és evilági létezőnek nincs hatalmában. Fentieket a kozmikus – természeti törvények garantálják, melyeket ha figyelmen kívül hagyunk megsemmisítenek. Oldal 1 / 16 Magyar Királyi Koronatanács 1384 Budapest Pf. 736.
