What thoughts??

Verdis or Liberland is not even an actual country. It is a micronation(do you know what a micronation is?).

And what's more?

It has Zero citizens and nobody lives there. The area which the country claims as its own is an uninhabited and largely uninhabitable tract of land which in itself is a source of dispute between Croatia and Serbia.

In fact, due to international law constraints, the country can neither come into existence as a sovereign entity nor can it have any form of recognition from other sovereign entities.

I study micronations as a hobby. So when I see one, I instantly recognise it. So, don't get carried away by what you see on that website.

In case you wish to know a little more about micronations, read this:

Here is another example of a micronation for you. Conch Republic, Florida:
