The Republic of Z1969 is a micronation founded on 4th August 2013.
Etymology
The name comes from the early days of the internet. It is formed with two elements: Philip Zimmermann, who made PGP, and the year of the start of the internet as a military network.
History
Z1969 was started on 5 August 2013, but its history is much older.
A short timeline:
- 100-200 before Christ: the Anthikythera mechanism, the first analog computer
- 1822: Charles Babbages differential engine
- The 20th century: the real start of the computer (nearly all built for war – not good)
- 1969: ARPANET, an American Military network and the beginning of what we call the internet later
- 1972: ARPANET was accessible for everyone
- 1981: the first personal computer, by IBM
- 1999: the first internet micronation called Audentior
- 2009: the start of the smartphone and tablet expansion
- 2013: the founding of Z1969

Foreign relations
Currently Z1969 hasn't any diplomatic relations, but it will start contacting several nations and organisations soon.
