Free Republic of Liberland (hereinafter “Liberland”) is a sovereign state located between Croatia and Serbia on the west bank of the Danube river. The nearest towns are Zmajevac (Croatia) and Bački Monoštor (Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, Serbia). On some maps, this area is referred to as “Gornja Siga”.

Liberland came into existence due to a border dispute between Croatia and Serbia. This area along the west bank of the Danube river is not claimed by Croatia, Serbia or any other country. It was therefore terra nullius, a no man’s land, until Vít Jedlička seized the opportunity and on 13 April 2015 formed a new state in this territory – Liberland. The boundary was defined so as not to interfere with the territory of Croatia or Serbia. Its total area of approximately 7 km² is now the third smallest sovereign state, after the Vatican and Monaco.

From Liberland's official website's About Liberland page, which also tells you how you can become a citizen of Liberland.

According to this article, no country has yet officially recognized Liberland, but more than 300,000 people have applied for citizenship already.

Is this a Monaco in the making, or just another Principality of Sealand situation?

To most of you this is not a interesting topic but for me it is. Why? Cause Liberlanc is on Croatian my countries soil they are not on serbians side of Dandube. So why should they even get it? Why really? You can't just come to no mans land and say this is new country. It will probably be new Monaco.
