Liberland, Micronations, Claiming Free Land, Croatia, Serbia, The Singularity, Consciousness, Community, Free Republics. Timothy Allen talks with Vít Jedlička. Vit is the founder and president of the Free Republic of Liberland, a new micronation formed in 2015 which claimed an uninhabited parcel of disputed land on the western bank of the Danube, between Croatia and Serbia. This was my first time discussing the project on this podcast and, as a result my questions are quite rudimentary. Liberland’s story is absolutely fascinating and if this is your first exposure to it, you should definitely use this interview as a springboard to investigating the whole thing much, much further. Enjoy the conversation.
