thumb|upright|Vít Jedlička, founder and president of Liberland Liberland's official website states that the nation was founded in the wake of the ongoing Croatia–Serbia border dispute. According to Jedlička, this dispute resulted in a plot of land west of the Danube being unclaimed by either country. The parcel of land in question is in area, roughly the same size as Gibraltar. It has been administered by Croatia since the Croatian War of Independence. Liberland has no recognition from any recognized nation. The land lacks infrastructure and lies on the floodplain of the Danube. Croatia has frequently blocked off access to Gornja Siga since 2015. As a result, a number of people, including Jedlička, have been arrested for trying to enter the claimed land.
