The Republic of Libertalia, or Libertalia for short, was founded in November of 2017 by our founder and current President, Connor McLean. The nation was originally called the Floridian Federation, and has gone by many names over the years before settling on the one which we use today. Libertalia was originally founded as a benevolent dictatorship, with complete power vested in the President, but quickly after its formation shifted towards the democratic model it uses today.
