Have you ever heard of LIBERLAND? The self-declared micro-nation that sits on a mysterious 7km plot of land on the border of Serbia and Croatia? If not, then you will be absolutely shocked by what I'm about to share with you in this 33-minute video - one of my favorite stories of the year!
The 'country' of Liberland was founded in 2015 by a Czech libertarian named Vít Jedlička, and it was built on one simple principle: FREEDOM. More than 900 citizens already have their Liberland passports (yes, they are real!!), and this legal document allows them to enter several U.N. countries such as Haiti, Malawi and Colombia. Word on the street is spreading, and now more than 700,000 people are on the list to get their e-residency cards.
I recently went to Liberland's annual festival called 'Floating Man,' and I was really inspired by the conversations that I had. There were so many creative and forward-thinking minds in one place, with a lot of optimism for the future of Liberland to gain full independence. But one thing didn't feel right to me... It is extremely difficult to enter the physical land.
Both the Serbian and Croatian border police are guarding Liberland 24-7, along the banks of the Danube River, and they will arrest anyone who tries to step foot on the land itself.
In this video, I uncover the full Liberland story and go on a wild mission to land on its soil.
What are your thoughts on Liberland? Would love to hear in the comments below. My team and I have never worked harder on editing a video, and we'd love your feedback.

The guy talking in Serbian to you even tho he knew you didn't understand him is the MOST serbian thing ever
Fr

actually even if you understand 10%, it is helpful. especially hand movements
@@SelmanYasirSezgin Im serbian i know ots helpful but in Serbia we have a ting called "inat" witch is basically doing something just for the sake of it no meter the situation and talking to foreigners in serbian is one of those.
@@vida3225 yeah and we have it worse. we yell (raise our voice) to foreigners to make them understand (as if it is gonna work lol)
This little video shows a lot about the concept of nations and the human psychology. There is basically just a beach. It could be Serbia, it could be Croatia. The beach doesn't care. But yet Drew was so jacked up just to touch the sand of this beach and he almost didn't care if he goes to jail for it. Only because someone gave this beach the name "Liberland".
Um, it's a whole lot more complicated and involved than that.
@@jamesengland7461 Not really. It's just a river border that will continue to change over the course of its entire existence. One big flood and Liberland will be washed away and the natural border will once again change while the political border remains...
It's much more complicated. I served as the President of the Liberland Aid Foundation where we would offer aid to other struggling nations to build bonds since many nations including our Liberland are either not or rarely heard by the UN. Liberland just wants to exist and it's not about Vit. It's about a movement.
True
@@thegoldenyogi But you have to admit that Liberland is just an empty shell and so everybody can project their own dreams in it. That's the fascination. Once it gets going reality will kick in as it did in similar projects like Cristiana in Denmark.
Am born and raised in Norway, but my parents live in Apatin (Serbia). I didnt know Liberland was so close to my families home, hopefully i can visit it one day! Amazing video :)

As a Czech this warms my heart and also Vít's Czech accent is so perfect 🤣🤣🤣 Czenglish 🤎
Stealing our country will cost you ! 🇭🇷
ja třeba umim akcent perfektně, ale postupem času jsem na tom polevil protože jsem pochopil že mi lidi rozumí i tak a nepotřebuju za každou cenu dělat doje, chci se hlavně domluvit.
@@MrMajsterixx hele já pracuju s cizinci a všichni máme svůj accent, já nejsem člověk který to řeší, jen prostě mě zahřálo u srdíčka to slyšet u Drewa na videu, prostě čecha poznáš 🤣
Jo přesně tak! Mně se asi nejvíc líbila Drewova výslovnost jména Vít Jedlička. 😆
Vít is a legend! He has a personality that I have only encountered in Czech Republic when I lived there. Serious and determined about one thing, but at the same time just joking around and not worrying.
He’s the best!!
They might worry about having a bunker bc of recent events - just in case..
@@drewbinsky and I guess he pays well?
He’s an absolute chad.

Bro, you a real champ, you went through all of this just to produce this video for us! 😀
and ofcourse for the youtube pay cheque

It is Del Arno Band, if you are interested to check them out. Greetings for Jamaica, thanks for good vibes! :)
Drew, are you considering visiting every territory and micronation? I feel like it would be really cool to get a spotlight of those people who live in these really small places and those still attempting to secure their freedom in some breakaway states, and also trying to maintain a nirmal life. love from north carolina :)
Yes I am!!!!
@A Random Channel molossia?
Where is that?
Is it a country?
@@norpriest521 it's a micronation in usa
@@drewbinsky Can you visit Somaliland?
@@drewbinsky if you do, you will have to go to antartica🥶🥶
My editing team has never spent longer editing a video, and I really enjoyed telling this story. It would mean a lot if you commented and shared your thoughts! Very interesting topic! Also - it has come to my attention that we used the old version of the Croatia flag, and my team and I apologize. It was not intentional!
Drew should visit the Principality of Sealand and get knighted.
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Drew for visiting us, it was a pleasure getting to know you. Cheers man!
Love from London 👋
Fabulous coverage ---
Your cinematography and interviewing skills have developed so much over the years. Well done Drew.
Niko put the flag on it and left without being charged
Yeah going through Hungry seems to be the best option. As it’s a schengen country
Drew never disappoints. Thanks for the awesome content
I've been wanting you to visit Liberland for a long time now, It's nice you've finally came.
Yep! and it was awesome!
Love to see you constantly exploring and finding new places. Amazing work Drew!
Iove this video! My great grandfather came from Yugoslavia. My grandmother's granddad immigrated to USA, and landed in NY city in April 1904. I love learning about where my ancestors came from. ❤️
You are such a good content creator. This videos for me is better than the tv shows.
Thanks!!!
I love what you did to your vlog. From $100 dollar spending down to this amazing documentary. You are such a great storyteller. Hoping for more stories from you.
Drew, i am following you from last few years. I love your videos. You are a nonjudgmental person. You focus on everyone story equally.
NDL HAS CONQUERED! 🔥
Really Great Video. Absolutely Loved it. Hats off to Drew and his team
The experiences and places you've been are unique and wonderful. It seems like I've been all over the world. Thanks!

Tell Max I referred you to him for a business investment that will change your financial life...
Drew, you're so close to Croatia. Come on over and make videos here. There's not a single video from our country on the channel
Wonderful video Drew, watching from Nigeria. Awesome to see these great innovations and inventions. Would visit some day
With you Drew l learn about this country, l would love to visit Serbia and Liberland too Love from Greece🇬🇷🤍
Ελα ρε πατρίδα! 🇬🇷🇬🇷
i miss greece!!!

@@drewbinsky go back and video the non tourist trap parts of Greece with the locals please
I want visit there
U are such a awesome person drew! Keep up the awesome work!
Wow, this is amazing! Great concept and great video!
I was really waiting for someone to make a video about Liberland ... And here we go, my favorite youtuber made one 😀
This was epic! Nice work, Drew
☝️☝️
Tell Max I referred you to him for a business investment that will change your financial life....
Ni hao laowhy!
I'm a friend of the Liberland project, been several times on the boat near Liberland (even slept on it once, across LL). Also attended their conferences and anniversaries couple of times. Amazing people, amazing idea. Long live Liberland!
p.s. there are some videos in my channel from the liberland trips
No bro
@@JmKrokY yes sis
As a Serbian i agree, im also for Liberland to become a country
@@serbianwarrior385 And I, as another Serbian, who actually leaves nearby so called "Liberland", don't agree, and think it is a scam. The land that was "claimed" by these people is disputed territory between Croatia and Serbia, and will be solved in future. Just because some wacko decided it's his, it doesn't make it so. They already know that, but since some people are stupid enough to believe that "project" will work, they are making good money out of it. Also provide a good subject for making CZcams content, obviously. Just gtfo.
How much of that fake currency did you buy? lol.
This was truly amazing. Because of your great videos we got to learn more. You are truly amazing brother. Stay safe always wherever you are going next.❤😊
I have been waiting so long to get some good insights and information about this country, i've kind of known it for a lot of years
This is without a doubt one of the best you have. I was laughing almost the whole time, but in the best way. It's all so odd and amazing. And the editing team made a slam dunk. Absolutely top content, just love it. I would definitely move to Liberland... waiting on the Liberland flag emoji....
Drew i wanna tell you thank you so much for doing my biggest childhood dream , i used to watch mouk (a french cartoon about 2 friend travelling the world) the soundtrack where amazing and i wanted To travel the world since then
Awesome video and super good production quality.
Definitely wanr see Drew there next year! Well done for putting this place on the map!
Being born in belgrade, I can confirm that belgrade is an amazing place to live
Your passion, drive and respect for everyone is inspiring. Your videos are something I feel like should be taught in school over many subjects which bring little to no value. Through your POV and lenses I learned so much about the world that I would have probably never had the opportunity to.
Thank you so much!
So cool, thank you for sharing! Such an inspiration!
Just when you think Paraguay is the new frontier, I need to start telling our clients about Liberland, amazing great video.
The landscape and forests are really beautiful and amazing. Besides these people are very hospitable. ❤️ From Uzbekistan
Fantastic video!
Greetings from Liberlands neighbouring country of Serbia ❤️
Good video! As a world traveler and vlogger, I might visit Liberland soon!
Thanks for this amazing video!

Drew, I’ve been in Croatia it’s absolutely stunning. I haven’t been in Liberland though. I’ve been there in July.
Man wow you just go all in to make a video⭐⭐⭐.Hats off to you my friend 🔥🔥🔥
This is my favorite video of yours so far!! So interesting.
Ive never seen a person live as much as this guy does, its refreshing to see.
Drew thanks for good words about Serbia 😊
I am from former Yugoslavia, Serbia and Croatia were part of it - thank you so much for the video! Greetings from Canada
Very inspiring video. Greetings from Brazil.
I love ur videos u inspire me to travel around the world
Thank you so much!
@@drewbinsky Did you apply for the Liberland passport?
@@ListenToElectronic yes
You and your team are incredibly amazing for sharing these stories of micronations and lending your voice to those people who need to be heard so they can share their peaceful philosophies and help heal the world.
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
such an underrated video deserves way more views than less than a 100k
1:26 it is NOT true that they can go to Colombia with the Liberland Passport.
The dedication you have of discovering new places that are very insignificant to be known by the whole world, keep up that spirit glowing inside your heart Drew
⤵️⤵️Text Max tell him I refferred you to Something New•and huge
Gorgeous video!
Gives a good insight into the work of Liberland.
Hey remember Redshanks?
What a daring person! I love you drew 😂❤️
I participated in a Geography Olympiad almost a year ago and the topic of my thesis was "Micronations". My goal was to get Mr Jedlička to answer my questions in my interview and it worked! I'm so glad he helped me make my paper special!
33 minutes fully edited! What a megaproject! 👍 i know how difficult it is
Wack cutting for exemple at 3:56 and let the shots breathe pls This aint tiktok great Workshop anyways congrats!
Woo this is great..years to come things will get better 🙏 ❤️ ✨️
I LOVE every one of your videos! You are so inspiring and I truly enjoy your videos! You are my favorite CZcamsr and we are both part of the same tribe. :)
As a person from Apatin,i acctually entered liberland 2 times,once going fishing we went past it and 2nd time our boat broke down and police allowed us to go to the shore and they called the mechanics,thanks for rating our beer.
Also you can see my kayak coach on timestamps: 23:20 (he is the left person in the closer boat) and on 32:31 (he is the right one with his hand in the air)
Love your chanel you are insane keep on the work and thanks for inspiring me to travel.Greetings from Bosnia ❤❤❤
Thank you Jadro!
A bit off topic and not related to this video: I would love you visiting Tristan da Cunha and see the most isolated island through your eyes. It’s not a new country though as it’s a British territory. As always, an excellent video that will encourage all of us to explore the world further.
Like Drew is just one risk taker. Love your videos.
I really like the idea of Liberland. How passionate you were just to touch the land, shows how dedicated you're towards what you do. Keep it up, man! Absolutely love your content.
yeah, but not on other peoples' territory
Places like this and Bir Tawil are always interesting.
Yes Bir Tavil salute.
I love your videos a lot 🙂 Support from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you so much!
This reminded me of Limberwisk's episode on Geography Now's channel 😁. Great video!
Nice, this is my city Apatin ❤ Thanks for visiting !
Interesting fact, my friend actually knew the president of Liberland. We were living in Croatia and he took me over there several times. Once I had dinner with the president.
that's cool! Vit is a GREAT guy!
@@drewbinsky How can one apply for their passport? I'm British.
Im glad that you visited my home country,Serbia
This is really so awesome!!!
I am from Czech republic and I love how you said the name Vít Jedlička. I like
that accent or how to say it, it's cute. Thank you for this video.
Amazing video! It maybe s*cks that you couldn't touch the land, but still; I learned a lot and am so curious about everything what Liberland will bring in our world.
Did you censor sucks?
NDL HAS CONQUERED!
This is so neat! My neighbour is the daughter of both a Croatian and a Serbian parent, I just don't remember who's from which, I think her mum was Croatian. They fled persecution to Canada, but had to leave their adult son behind. Can't understand a word her mum says, but you understand the love in the food she makes!
Hey drew what's up you found new country today thanks for that
I'm finally all set to be a full time traveller by mid 2023. Watching your uploads 1st time 4 years ago sparked something in me. Back then I didn't have any money, courage or the confidence. Thank you for helping me find what I really want in life. This might sound like a stretch but you are literally the first person who created such a huge impact on my life and made me realize what I really wanna do.
Oh this was so sweet you get out there and you see the world!!! You only live once! I'm 42 years old I live in Tennessee I've seen maybe 15 states. Oh how I wish I had the $$$ to travel the 🌎
@@thatgardeninggirl2864 yes its soo hard to get money, but I have a remote job now that doesn't really require me to be at any particular place at a time, I'm so glad I have this job. But 15 states is also quite a lot, most people don't even explore more than their own cities!
@@ankita1102 that's awesome that you don't you can "travel" for work not have to be at the same place all the time I usually travel through all those states trying to get to another went to New Jersey to help a friend pack got to see Alot between Tennessee and There! Flying to L.A. in June it'll be my first time seeing California I'm SO excited (I've only been to Utah)
You got this!
@@thatgardeninggirl2864 good luck on ur journey! im sure you’ll have a good time.
It's crazy how I as Serbian am hearing about this from an American youtuber for the first time ever
Very interesting topic
oh dude ur animations are so good
👆🏻Let's discuss, I have a beneficial idea to share with you
NDL has conquered!
First micronation, these types of countries are common but isolated. I recommend you visit Sealand and Molossia if you want to continue.
I think the title is misleading, because how could it not exist if you you were there! Great video, and I will return to Floating Man next year
Drew with the borders open now you have got to return to it. I've been following along and I'm excited to see where this goes
The fact that the founder is a Czech is so funny when you think of Kaliningrad
Could you explain Kaliningrad and the Czech for the ignorant among us like myself?
@@bayersbluebayoubioweapon8477 well, Kaliningrad was originally foundex by Czech king Přemysl Otakar II. in 12th century, so when russians made that weird referendums in Ukraine, our polish friends started to joke, that them and us should split the kaliningrad area - because Czechs dont have access to the sea. It appeared a lot on the social media and that idea became more bigger - that we should annect the whole area, because it belongs to us. It came viral, even in big medias, thats exacty the kind of humor, what people love here
his plans and already having ministers but nothing else is even funnier :D 17000 people? LOL... he's already planing airport and port and can't even get water or electricity...
Kralovec lol
@@bayersbluebayoubioweapon8477 search up Kralovec
Hey Drew, just a note. On 0:35 when talking about Liberland Location, the wrong flag has been used for Croatia (used flag -> Banovina of Croatia 1939-1941 & Independent Croatia 1990)
The flag has been changed since 1991 and updated with a new coat of Arms.

When I got to the beach, I would have "accidentally" slipped and fell off the edge of the boat and hoped they wouldn't penalize me because it was an accident. It's so strange that humans are like this in the world.
