An Interview With The President of the Freest Country On Earth - Vit Jedlicka of Liberland
One of my most popular posts here on Steemit was nearly a year ago and called, Why I Left Canada and Became A Citizen of the Dominican Republic.
In it I detailed how I had become a citizen of the Dominican Republic after ten years of residency (despite being told it would be 2 years when I began... which is very normal) and how I was glad to have an option beside the citizenship forced upon me at birth by Canada along with millions of dollars in extortion.
The Dominican Republic (DR) was a step-up from Canada as they extort their own tax slaves a lot less if they happen to make most of their money outside of the country... but I was still a tax slave.
That's why I was thrilled when this year I was not only bestowed with citizenship but even given the title of a diplomatic ambassador for the freest country on Earth, Liberland!
Liberland's President is an anarcho-capitalist and he intends for the country to be as ancap as possible while still meeting sufficient criteria to be recognized as a country by currently existing countries. And, one of the very ancap policies is that taxation in Liberland is completely voluntary.
It's actually an incredibly exciting and ingenius way of forming a country and will serve as a beacon of freedom to the rest of the world much the same way America did hundreds of years ago but not any longer.
I had the opportunity last week at Freedomfest to sit down with the President of my country, Vit Jedlicka, where we discussed how phenomenally well Liberland has been progressing and the exciting prospects for its future.
You can see it here:
Liberland is located between Croatia and Serbia and I am hoping to visit my motherland in person later this year!
I found some interesting information about Liberland on wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberland
Very interesting, thanks for more great content Jeff!
Also, here is the website to register your business in Liberland!

Liberland's President is an anarcho-capitalist
I am a voluntaryist and even though that country looks free-er than the rest of the world (for now) , the title of president doesnt sound right. I'd believe that such a country would have a council of supervisors, with nobody in command. That is how I see it for the movement I kickstarted a few months ago
I am unsure and there is a fair chance that I am incorrect but perhaps he is president only as a ceremonial position so the country would be recognized as such. I am sure neighboring countries would have no problem with the legitimacy of them but large organizations/countries probably dispute the claim.
And it's 1st time I hear of such a country...
Citizenship costs $5000 in donations hmm...
That is a lot cheaper than the U.S.A. citizen registry process when you total all expenses.
What happened to the days when freedom cost a buck o'five?
You can also contribute the same value in work for Liberland.
I dont know enough about liberland - yet - to sustain a conversation but yeah, its plausible
but here is a starter: https://www.theverge.com/2015/4/21/8457239/liberland-the-worlds-newest-country-vit-jedlicka
The President is the head of the provisional government of Liberland, until the first democratic elections.
Dear Jeff, you've got too many great stories/posts. Please slow down a bit so I can catch up! :) All the best!
Liberland here I come ;)
I MUST GO TO LIBERLAND
I'm so glad you reminded me of this place.
Here comes @jeffberwick again with his unusual announcements. I just took a short break from sleep to check what's cooking with hard fork and surprise surprise, Jeff's video with the president of Liberland (never heard of this country before). Going back to sleep now. I'm still on 9 to 5 slavery. will watch the video later. Good morning.
He was on Reason TV or Dr Paulºs Liberty Report a long while back, when it was still forming and both armies of Croatia and Serbia were preventing people from accessing Liberland.
Looks more interesting
Very inspiring, my lady and I are looking to apply for citizenship in a Central American country as well within the next year or two. Thank you for all of the fantastic advice with the Eth, you the man Jeff.
Great video,Jeff!
Liberland is one of the most controversial things in Croatia and Serbia, in both countries some people claim Jedlicka just wants attention while others praise the guy,claiming his actions to be that of a real freedom fighter.
@jeffberwick im interested in the HK bank account with Liberland Residence, can you give out further details ablut that?
