The Socialist Republic of Texas (SRT for short) is a micronation in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. It was founded on October Tenth 2024, after breaking away from the United States. The Socialist Republic of Texas is currently made up of one district, The Flower District, and only one Commune, Redwood Commune.

While the Socialist Republic of Texas is ideologically a Socialist Republic, due to its low population it currently lacks a democratic and economic system.

So far, the Socialist Republic of Texas has had friendly relations with the Shanton Republic, the Federal Regency of Moffat, and the Frederick Union.

History

The micronation's first constitution was ratified on 25 October 2024. On 6 October 2024, the Socialist Republic of Texas announced its land claims, claiming 7 potential districts.
