Etymology
"Alonia" name derives from Arabic word "الوان (colours, singular :لون)" or English word "all in one", refers to Alonia founded as an unity in diversity based country. "Berdikari", a name affixed later, is an acronym of "Berdiri di atas kaki sendiri" (Standing on own feet), which refers to spirit of independence, self-sufficience, and freedom, historically used by Indonesian founder Sukarno on many of his speeches and rhetorics in 1950s until 1960s.
History
Alonia was founded as an independent Republic of Alonia in 6 August 2014 by Muhammad AS as leader. Early days of Alonia was hindered due to Muhammad AS lack of experience on micronational government. Arkaporean leader Tian Abdurrahman later initiate a dialogue with Alonia to provide assistance to the new country, which was immediately accepted by Muhammad AS, which allowed Alonia to be administer by Arkapore as a dependent territory temporarily. Tian later promised Amir to allow an independence referendum to took place 3 months after Alonian dependent territory status expired.
A referendum on Alonian independence was took place in 3 October 2014, with the results overwhelmingly supported independence from Arkapore. Despite initial resistance from Tian to recognise the results, he later relented and allow Alonia to be independent in 25 October 2014, the initial promised date of the referendum.
After the death of Tian Abdurrahman and subsequent collapse of Arkapore in September 2019, Alonia reformed itself to the current form in early 2020.
