Liberland 
 Liberland, officially called the Free Republic of Liberland, is a micronation that started on an unclaimed piece of land on the western part of the Danube River between Croatia and Serbia.
Liberland 
 The official Liberland website says the nation was created on no-man's land ((terra nullius) that emerged because Croatia and Serbia have not agreed on common borders for over 25 years.
Liberland 
 This border dispute includes some areas to the east of the Danube which are claimed by both Serbia and Croatia.
Liberland 
 Croatia considers some areas on the west side of the river, including Liberland, to be part of Serbia, although Serbia no longer claims that land.
Liberland 
 The land is under de facto administration by Croatia since the Croatian War of Independence but Croatia has blocked people's access to Liberland since shortly after its founding.
Liberland 
 No country that is a member of the United Nations has given full diplomatic recognition to Liberland, although Liberland has opened official relations with Somaliland and Haiti as well as other partially recognized and unrecognized states and micronations.
Liberland 
 The border disagreement along the Danube River valley started in 1947 but was left unresolved during the existence of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
Liberland 
 Serbia claims the thalweg of the Danube valley and the center line of the river is the international border between the two countries.
Liberland 
 The Croatian government disagrees and claims that the international border lies along the old lines of the cadastral municipalities along the river — as the Danube was in the 19th century before meandering and hydraulic engineering works changed its course.
Liberland 
 As a result, Croatia claims a large part of the area controlled by Serbia, while Serbia does not claim the smaller parts on the other side.
Liberland 
 President Jedlička says that the land claimed for Liberland, known as Gornja Siga (meaning upper tufa), remains unclaimed by Croatia or Serbia.
Liberland 
 A journalist from the Czech newspaper Parlamentní listy who visited the area in April 2015 found a house that had been abandoned for about thirty years, according to people living in the vicinity.
Liberland 
 The Danube River, an international waterway with free access to the Black Sea for several landlocked nations, runs along the self-proclaimed territory.
Liberland 
 Liberland visitors and citizens come to the area by boat from Apatin, Serbia and other ports and docks along the Danube River.
Liberland 
 Liberland keeps its ships the Bitcoin Freedom and the SS Liberty at the local marina, has bought land and buildings in the Apatin Free Trade Zone and recently opened "Ark EcoVillage" on a piece of land formerly known as Zelena Glava ("Golden Head").
Liberland 
 The flag ceremony in Gornja Siga was performed by Vít Jedlička and others on the same day the statehood of Liberland was proclaimed.
Liberland 
 The flag is a yellow background (symbolizing libertarianism) with a black horizontal stripe through the centre (symbolizing anarchy or rebellion) and the coat of arms in the centre.
Liberland 
 Jedlička is a member of the Czech Party of Free Citizens, which bases its values on the classical liberal ideology.
Liberland 
 Jedlička stated that neither Serbia, Croatia nor any other nation claims the land (no-man's land or terra nullius).
Liberland 
 The border, he argued, was defined according to both Croatian and Serbian border claims and did not interfere with any other state's sovereignty.
Liberland 
 Jedlička said in April 2015 that an official diplomatic note would be sent to both Croatia and Serbia, and later to all other states, with a formal request for international recognition.
Liberland 
 On 18 December 2015, President Jedlička presented the first provisional government of Liberland and its Ministers of Finance, Foreign Affairs, Interior and Justice as well as two vice presidents.
Liberland 
 In May 2015, Vít Jedlička and his translator Sven Sambunjak were shortly detained by Croatian police after making an attempt to cross the border.
Liberland 
 Jedlička spent one night in jail and then was convicted and ordered to pay a penalty for illegal crossing of the Croatian border but appealed the verdict.
Liberland 
 He claimed that there were at least three Liberland citizens inside the area, who came from Switzerland.
Liberland 
 Initially, reporters were able to enter the area with Jedlička but subsequently they were also denied entry, including journalists from the Serbian public broadcast service Radio Television of Vojvodina, and from the Bosnian newspaper Dnevni Avaz.
Liberland 
 The people arrested were from many countries, including Ireland, Germany, Denmark, and the U.S. Croatian police continued to arrest people, including those who entered the area by boat via the international waterway.
Liberland 
 One of them, a Danish activist Ulrik Grøssel Haagensen, was placed in house arrest for 5 days before being sentenced to 15 days of prison, triggering some protests in Denmark.
Liberland 
 The court upheld the rulings that crossing into Liberland from Croatia is illegal, but found the convictions for entering Liberland from Serbia were not correct.
Liberland 
 The court said that the lower court committed "a fundamental breach of misdemeanor proceedings" and "essential procedural violations".
Liberland 
 It further ruled that "the facts were incorrectly and incompletely established [by the prosecutor] which could lead to misapplication of substantive law."
Liberland 
 The lower court is therefore required to determine the location of the border and the border crossing, but has not done this yet.
Liberland 
 Since that time, visitors have come the area in boats, but have not permanently settled the area, and conflicts with Croatian police have been avoided.
Liberland 
 Croatia and Serbia dismissed Jedlička's claims as not important, although the two countries reacted in different ways.
Liberland 
 On 24 April 2015, the Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that while they consider the affair a trivial matter, the "new state" does not infringe upon the Serbian border, which they say is the Danube River.
Liberland 
 Croatia, which blocks people from accessing Liberland, has stated that after international arbitration, it should be awarded to Croatia or Serbia, not to a third party.
Liberland 
 An article in the Chicago Journal of International Law, the law review of the University of Chicago Law School, examined Liberland's claim to statehood in light of the criteria laid out by the Montevideo Convention.
Liberland 
 According to the author, "Croatia’s insistence that Liberland is part of Serbia could constitute a renunciation of Croatia’s legal rights to Liberland.
Liberland 
 Conversely, if the territory that Liberland claims as its own is Serbian, the Serbian government’s renunciation of its title to that land could also be a quitclaim that would transform the legal status of the land to terra nullius.
Liberland 
 In both instances, the territory would belong to the first entity —in this case Liberland— to claim it.”
Liberland 
 Legal experts in Serbia and Croatia have asked if, under international law, Jedlička has the right to claim the area, which is currently the subject of a dispute between the two nations but claimed by neither one.
Liberland 
 Journalists have been uncertain as to how serious Jedlička is about his claims, with some calling it a publicity stunt.
Liberland 
 On 20 May 2015 Petr Mach, the leader of the Party of Free Citizens, expressed support for the creation of a state based on ideas of freedom, adding that the Party of Free Citizens wants the Czech Republic to become a similarly free country.
Liberland 
 Goran Vojković, professor of law and columnist from the Croatian news portal Index.hr, described Liberland as a "circus which threatens Croatian territory", and argued that there was a risk that Croatia's claim to control land on the other side of the Danube may be weakened by the attention that the Liberland project has drawn to the border dispute.
Liberland 
 In 2016, an article in Stratfor summarized the initiative as follows: "Liberland is a curious case because, in principle, none of the actors that could claim control over it seems interested in doing so.
Liberland 
 For the rest of the world's disputed territories, violence and diplomacy will remain the main tools to claim ownership.
Liberland 
 According to its web page, Liberland is currently looking for those who have respect for other people and respect the opinions of others, regardless of their race, ethnicity, orientation, or religion, have respect for private ownership which is untouchable, and have not been punished for serious criminal offences.
Liberland 
 An event was supposed to take place in the claimed territory, but Croatian border police stopped the group from entering it from the Croatian side.

Liberland

Liberland 
 Through the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Zagreb, it warned that the "efforts to create some new 'state' have no basis in international law," and that "in the territory of Croatia, citizens of the Czech Republic as well as other foreigners are obliged to adhere to the Croatian legal code, including the current regime on the Croatian-Serbian border.
Liberland

Gairaigo 
 Gairaigo (kanji: 外来語, hiragana: がいらいご) are loanwords in the Japanese language from languages other than Old or Middle Chinese.
Gairaigo 
 Most gairaigo come from European languages, and especially English since the post-WWII era, though Modern Chinese and Modern Korean are also popular sources for loanwords.
Gairaigo 
 Most gairaigo nowadays are written in katakana, with some older ones being written in ateji (kanji used only to show a word's pronunciation and not its meaning) or even in hiragana.
Gairaigo 
 For example, while America, or Amerika in Japanese, can be written as 亜米利加 in ateji, it is rare to do so these days, and instead it is almost always written in katakana as アメリカ.
Gairaigo 
 Gairaigo is one of the three main sources of Japanese words, along with kango (kanji: 漢語, hiragana: かんご), or Chinese loanwords, and yamato kotoba (kanji: 大和言葉, hiragana: やまとことば), or native Japanese words.
Gairaigo 
 Since the Chinese character system gave Japanese a writing system (as Japanese had no known systems of writing beforehand), the Japanese naturally borrowed many Chinese words into their language.
Gairaigo 
 However, the Japanese only borrowed words from other Asian languages until the Portuguese and the Dutch came to Japan during the 16th century.
Gairaigo 
 Since the Portuguese and the Dutch traded many different goods with the Japanese at this time, the Japanese naturally included many Portuguese and Dutch words into their own language, including karuta (ateji: 加留多 or 歌留多, hiragana: かるた, katakana: カルタ) from the Portuguese carta meaning "letter", tempura (ateji: 天麩羅 or 天婦羅, ateji and hiragana [most common form]: 天ぷら, hiragana: てんぷら, katakana: テンプラ), from the Portuguese tempora meaning "temperance", as Catholics would not eat red meat during Lent, and tabako (kanji: 煙草, hiragana: たばこ, katakana: タバコ) from the Portuguese tabaco meaning "tobacco".
Gairaigo 
 While these terms used to be written mostly in ateji (and they still can be), they are now mostly written only in hiragana or katakana.
Gairaigo 
 During the Meiji Period, after Matthew Perry forced Japan to open trade with other countries, Japan sent many scholars to Western countries to study different field of knowledge, such as Western medicine in Germany, an art in France.
Gairaigo 
 However, since the end of the 19th century, and especially after WWII, most gairaigo came from English.
Gairaigo 
 While many gairaigo came from English, Japanese has also invented many new words based off of English, but wouldn't be understood by native English speakers.
Gairaigo 
 Many of them are shortenings of English words such as amefuto (katakana:アメフト) which is a shortening of "American football", pasokon (katakana:パソコン) which is a shortening of "personal computer", konbini (katakana:コンビニ) which is a shortening of "convenience store", and anime (katakana: アニメ) which is a shortening of "animation".
Gairaigo 
 While each of these words have a longer gairaigo word that go along with them which would be amerikanfutobōru (katakana:アメリカンフットボール), pāsonarukonpyūtā (katakana:パーソナルコンピューター), konbiniensusutoa (katakana:コンビニエンスストア), and animēshon (katakana:アニメーション) in that order, they would be too long for a Japanese person to say in conversation.
Gairaigo 
 For example, "consent", or konsento (katakana:コンセント) in Japanese, means "electrical outlet" rather than its original meaning, and "range", or (katakana:レンジ) in Japanese, means "stove" rather than its original meaning.
