Active Corporations

Bank of Vlad Dracul

The Bank of Vlad Dracul was established in February of 2018, which was responsible not only for creating and physically producing banknotes, but also managing the amount of money that was printed to avoid inflation. The bank still operates to this day, and typically produces a new series of banknote each year for collectors. Banknotes serve as a novelty item and are typically sold on the Draculian Government website in the gift shop.

KBRN Dracul 1

The company focuses on the current events of the nation, which include elections, new legislation, interviews, conflicts, and weather. KBRN typically broadcasts on YouTube on Sundays and Wednesdays every week, but publishes online articles almost four times a week. Currently, the company is partially government-funded, but holds both government and civilian workers.

Dracul Historical Society

The Dracul Historical Society was founded in 2019, as a non-profit to maintain both Wallachian, Draculian, and current Romanian history. The organization focuses mostly on the history of Vlad Tepes and hosts facts about him on their website. Recently, the group has not seen much activity, however the history that many search for is still available online.

Bran District Mall

In 2021, Stephen Luke, a current employee of a shopping center in a macronational context, came up with the idea of incorporating a shopping center idea for micronationalism. The plan was to create a website, which would be deemed the mall, and provide advertising services for businesses in the micronational community. Stores would pay each month for the advertising, with a link to their online store on the mall website for guests to visit. In a sense, it provided a virtual shopping mall experience, allowing online shoppers, both inside and outside of the micronational community, to do business with those stores.

Saladin Defense Group

Saladin was created by Connor Modena in May of 2020, as a militia group in Dracul. While its full intended purpose is not well known, part of its mission was to aid in overseas military operations that Dracul's Military would not engage in. In other words, a mercenary group. While the group did form for a short period and have flags and emblems created, the organization saw no action and was quickly disbanded just a few short months later.
