Liberland, was a short lived nation in the Balkans situated as a buffer state between Croatia and Serbia. It was created after a insurgency which caused Croat troops to pull back from the region and recognise independence of Liberland on the 13th of January.
The insurgency
Main Page: Liberland Border Insurgency The Liberland Border Insurgency was a small war between the Croatian Armed Forces and Liberlanders. Around 70 people died in the insurgency and it resulted in independence in Liberland which only lasted for two days. During the insurgency Croatian forces suffered multiple defeats at the hands of guerrilla warfare tactics, the Croats in turn changed their approach and attacked in flanking manoeuvres overwhelming the insurgents.
Re-annexing
On the 15th of January Liberland was fully re-incorporated into Croatia.
Government
Liberland was led by a military dictatorship with Aminut as its sole leader. There were no elections.
Diplomacy
Liberland acted as a buffer point between Croatia and Serbia and thus was not condemned when it revolted. War was already ramping up in the tense region and it served to be a wall against it. The only nation that send aid to Croatia during the insurgency was The Kingdom of Cork. Serbia did announce their disproval of Liberland but did not act upon any of it. Liberland's independence was massively recognised after the insurgency, countries like Croatia, Cork, Celtic Union, Pomerania and Serbia all recognising Liberland's independence.
Military
Liberland never formed an official standing army but instead had militias. The main issued gun was the AK47 however captured Croatian m16's were extensively used.
Legacy
Liberland was annexed into Croatia on the 15th of January however still has some form of legacy behind, being its own military unit. The Liberland Socialist Defence Division was officially formed on the annexation of Liberland. It stands as a strong unit in the Croatian army and sees active deployment.
