WELCOME
to the future of nationhood. A virtual island haven in the middle
of cyberspace. Bermuda without the beach.
The
Commonwealth of Jeffersonia is an independent, sovereign state that exists
solely on the Internet. More precisely, it is a supranational
non-territorial confederation of independent sovereign individuals structured and organized as a
nation-state.
Jeffersonia is a model for
the way that people may organize themselves once the Information Age
eclipses the last vestiges of the Industrial Age. The modern nation
state is a holdover from that dying Age, and will inevitably be replaced
if not merely discarded and forgotten in the early part of the
twenty-first century. For anyone concerned with the peaceful and healthy
transition of civil society, consideration of what should or will take
the place of state power is an honorable and worthwhile effort.
Jeffersonia is also intended
as a serious effort to create the twenty-first century state, or what
might pass as such. It is impossible to be certain what form such
institutions might take. Jeffersonia is our best guess based on our
interpretation of what is needed to fuel and protect the fledgling
sovereign individuality movement.
The goal of the Commonwealth
is to provide
sovereign individuals a home that is free of the coercive power of
traditional governments and organized criminals.
In the absence of outside
intimidation and shakedown, individuals will realize true freedom to
conduct economic and social intercourse as promised by Adam Smith and
Thomas Jefferson, while possessing complete ownership of their own means
of production as envisioned by Karl Marx. Our citizens are free to join
together to achieve their full potential through synergy.
Our Commonwealth is part of an overwhelming
force for change in human society that is bringing real competition to
the world of nations. We are focused on satisfying our Citizens as
customers, not abusing them like slaves.
In the new world of 24/7 commerce where
time zones are the new continents...
"...Merit, wherever it arises,
will be rewarded as never before. In an environment where the greatest
source of wealth will be the ideas you have... rather than physical
capital alone, anyone who thinks clearly will potentially be rich...
the age of upward mobility. It will afford far more equal opportunity
for the billions of humans in parts of the world that never shared
fully in the prosperity of industrial society." - The
Sovereign Individual
The Commonwealth of
Jeffersonia is an integral part of this new civilization paradigm. The
cornerstone of our role will be in providing an encrypted workspace for the
conduct of commerce and other private human activities outside of the
inspection or control of others. We plan to provide privacy enabled secure
communications technology and other useful
Internet-based products and services intended to empower and protect our sovereign
individual members. As free sovereign allies, there is no limit to what
we can achieve.
In the new millenium,
"...Much of the world's commerce
will migrate into the new realm of cyberspace, a region where
governments will have no more dominion than they exercise over the
bottom of the sea or the outer planets." -
The Sovereign Individual.
In Jeffersonia wealth is protected
by a sea of zeros and ones.
