TWIL #84 - Verdis
Every week, I share something I learned in the previous seven days. I usually find these while I'm putting my weekly newsletter together but somehow, they don't quite fit!
This week I learned how a 14 year old boy founded his own 'micronation', somewhere on the border between Serbia and Croatia.
‘We would love to enter Eurovision!’ The boy who saw some unclaimed land – and founded his own country
Daniel Jackson was just 14 when he and his friends saw a strip of forest between Serbia and Croatia, and decided to claim it. Now 20, he is the president of Verdis, but has been forced to live in exile
