Liberalia was born from the glorious Christmas Revolution on December 20th, a sun-soaked democratic paradise, blessed with tropical weather and long sandy beaches. Liberalia is a Sovereign Democratic Region, not fond of spammers or spies. It is one of the top 20 largest regions in NationStates.[1]

History

The Sovereign and Independent region of Liberalia was born on 20th December 2005, by exiled democratic nations from the region of WWSETI. The first three of these nations, Carops, Ardalia and Loslakia, proclaimed a government-in-exile in Liberalia, following the instalment of a dictatorship in their home region.

Liberalia grew rapidly and talks with WWSETI, which was losing members and failing to find recruits, collapsed. It wasn't long before it became clear that Liberalia would thrive independantly and it was decided that reunification with WWSETI was not an option that would do well for the region.

The first Liberalians retained Carops as their Prime Minister from the 28th December 2005, when they elected their first democratically-elected leader. Carops served as provisional Prime Minister up to this point to enable the region to grow large and stable enough to be in a position to elect a leader. Carops served as Prime Minister until early March 2006, even though his term was slated to end in late February. Farlane was elected Prime Minister under the Moderate Party.

As of 2 April 2006, Liberalia is also the first region with a recreational television station, Liberalian Television Network (abbreviated LTN). LTN is a project headed by former admin Northern Sushi to bring a nice place for forum members to sit back and relax as they watch a wide variety of television programming relating to everything from entertainment to sports.

Liberalian News Service (LNS)

Started by Farlane and maintained by Curiaistan, it aims to offer a neutral point of view on the latest stories affecting Liberalia. There is also the Moderate Champion but it is widely seen to be heavily biased.
