Hajdučka Republika Mijata Tomića (The Hajduk Republic of Mijat Tomić) is the self-proclaimed micronation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, spread over several hectares between the mountains of Vran and Čvrsnica, in the middle of the Blidinje Nature Park in western Herzegovina.
Overview
The founder and first ruler was motel owner Vinko Vukoja–Lastvić. The republic was founded on the day of Diva Grabovčeva (29 June) in 2002, named after famous hajduk Mijat Tomić, who had its hiding place in the nearby caves. The seat of this republic is in the motel Hajdučke vrleti, whose owner is the sole ruler of this micronation[citation needed] which encompasses the area inside the highest peak of Vran mountain, the chapel of sv. Ante and the Risovac-Kedžara highway. It has 73 ministries.[2]
This republic has its consul and portparolle.[citation needed] Its day of statehood is on June 5.[2] This republic has also its Constitution, flag, passeport, territory and borders. One important thing – formation of political parties is strictly forbidden, as well as any dealing with politics, since it is not good for human health.[3]
Its state flag has a white background; in the upper left corner is the red the state coat-of-arms - chessboard, and in the middle is with blue color marked the picture of Mijat Tomić.[2]
History
Problems began when started when Vinko Vukoja wanted to solve a problem in connection with the main power supply net. As this area was on unclaimed land - three municipalities (Posušje, Tomislavgrad and Jablanica,[4] couldn't agree for years under whose responsibility the area fell, and whenever the motel owner asked any of the municipalities to solve its problem, they rejected him, saying it is not their problem, and referred him to one of other two municipalities. Finally, he solved that with his money.[citation needed]
So in that alleged "no one's land" in 2002 Hajdučka Republika was proclaimed. On the day of the proclamation, SFOR was alarmed by some persons. As SFOR saw the true nature of this project, they left very same day. The republic has no separatist or hegemonic ambitions.[citation needed]
Thanks to this fun protest project, its motel became one of most popular places in western Herzegovina.[5] Every year, there is a manifestation Triba slagat i ostat živ (To lie and stay alive). This project attracted the attention of Bosnian, Croat and Serb media, as well as some media outside the Balkans.[citation needed]
On 16 October 2009 President Vinko Vukoja died in a car accident.[1] His daughter Marija inherited his position and the title "harambaša" (chieftain).[6]
