Justin Sun, Founder of TRON, Elected Prime Minister of Liberland
----------------------------------
Justin Sun, founder of the TRON blockchain, said he was "very happy to have been elected as Prime Minister of Liberland." The appointment follows the congressional elections held in the micronation on October 5.
Liberland was created a little over 9 years ago, on April 13, 2015, by Czech politician Vít Jedlička. This self-proclaimed sovereign European micronation, recognized by no member country of the United Nations (UN), operates an area of approximately 7 km² located between the borders of Croatia and Serbia, on the west bank of the Danube.
This territory, which emerged after the dissolution of Yugoslavia, is not claimed by either Croatia or Serbia.
"The electoral process, governed by a set of simple rules, was entirely algorithmic, which allowed for complete transparency. This system has the unique ability to eliminate any doubt about the results of elections, a challenge faced by many countries that still rely on traditional methods."
As Prime Minister, Justin Sun Promises to Instill ‘Libertarian Principles’Liberland’s 7-member Congress, representing approximately 1,000 citizens, took the time to cast their ballots using a blockchain-based system.Newly elected as the President of the Liberland Congress and appointed as Liberland’s Prime Minister, Justin Sun did not fail to react to his appointment and stated that he has great ambitions for the micronation:
“My vision is to build on the existing foundations of libertarian principles that will be the essence of our nation. I want to actively promote the idea of small government, not only in Liberland, but as a model for the world. [...] There are no forced obligations, no taxes, no mandates imposed on its citizens. "
