The Birth of A Decentralized Nation

Conquest, probably man’s greatest addiction. Since the beginning of time, mankind has seemed to posses this indestructible, immutable desire for conquest. The metric to determine the morality of it appears illusive and ambiguous to this day. When thinking of it, the negative stigmas and results thereof are ubiquitous. While conquest seems go along with all the negative stigma, we, as people on this planet; owe a significant amount to it. Conquest seemed the be the source of change. Be it conquest on the micro or macro level, change seem to be interchangeable with it. Whether it’s a person’s conquest for better health, marriage, business, or the desire for new land. Conquest and Change appears bound at the hip. Like a twins, like Yin and Yang, it appears to be one in the same but somehow innately different. Is conquest change? Some may argue that conquest results in change and is thereby not the same. Others may argue that you cannot embark on conquest without change at a fundamental level. Appending that if one cannot embark on conquest without change, and change is the end result of conquest, is conquest not fundamentally change?

While both parties may not agree on the semantics, both parties may be able to handshake the fact that irregardless of it’s origin, conquest has left rippling effects throughout human history. This calls to memory Hitler’s conquest for the supreme race. One man’s desire for change in demographics and for world domination had left millions of human souls paying the price. Also called to remembrance of the great voyages, allowing for the discovery/rediscovery of many communities that stand as independent Nations today. Establishing the development of trading routes, and the exchange of natural resources promoting exponential growth in various industries across the globe. We see a pattern that has been, and continues to be repeated throughout our history and our future.

What is the next step? When contemplating the possibilities, one unwavering commonality is technology. Specifically, the computer. Much like conquest and change, humans and computer technology are becoming continuously intertwined. As fast as this merging of the human and computer technology is taking place, some experts predict a new exponentially greater tide on the horizon. We now use computers to bring new life into the world, sustain life, and even pushing the boundaries of human existence by preventing death with computer technology. It seems to be an unstoppable force of nature. Or, simply man’s nature to be unstoppable has began to consume itself. The new exponential tide has began to rear it’s head. Satoshi Nakamoto, the unidentified creator of the digital currency and immutable ledger known as Bitcoin has began his conquest. The distributed ledger, unchangeable by any one man/woman/entity has ignited the flames of change yet again. Taking currency, typically a physical manifestation of value, and turning it into into something intangible and non-fungible. A virtual currency, a virtual form of value; Bitcoin. Then comes Ethereum, riding the wave of innovation and implementing the philosophy of smart contracts. Smart contacts allowed mankind to take trust out of the physically manifestation of our existence and creating a virtual form of trust. Opening doors for new possibilities that the human mind has yet to fully comprehend.

Then comes Elastos. Applying all the above philosophies and taking these concepts multiple leaps and bounds into the future. An exponential growth if you will. Elastos appears to be laying the foundations for the next great conquest of mankind. Taking power away from large conglomerates and distributing that power back to the average man. Dubbed as the “Apple of China”. This group of people isn’t as “Chinese” as some may think. Elastos, a group of like minded believers in this technology, hosted their one year anniversary on the 25th of August 2018. In attendance were believers, supports, and community contributors from over 22 different countries. Alarmingly, this audience was accomplished within a minuscule 6 months of their exposure to the western world. It appears the new conquest may be taking place faster than the experts even predicted. Allowing for their Cyber Republic Citizens to own their own data, and become just as large and competitive as major co-operations such as Facebook and Google. Here, at this very event, something unexpected and possibly largely misunderstood had been announced.

Cyber Republic was born. Cyber republic marks the official start of man’s next conquest on this planet. This may be our biggest one yet. Cyber republic turns our physical manifestation of what a nation like: Usa, China, Russia, Korea, France, Japan…; into a digital one. Cyber republic self contains it’s own government, councils, social services, economies, citizens, mayors, governors, builders. Cyber Republic is transforming the way in which humans view nationality into a more condensed and more fair reality. Empower 35 supplies the Cyber Republic will all it’s utilities. Their own virtual fire fighters, lawyers, police officers, artisans, ambassadors, investors, mayors, and even evangelists. Cyber Republic 100 is the economy for this nation. Here, citizens of the Cyber republic can select tasks and earn income for their labor to the nation of Cyber Republic. Elastos is not bound to simply being a trust & currency converter. Elastos is the gateway to convert all existing physical manifestations of every philosophy to a new reality. Elastos is not a company or business, but a living breathing organism and Cyber Republic it’s newly born nation.
