The Frisian Free State is a young state in the former Dutch province of Friesland. It largely bases itself on Frisian nationalism and pursues a command economy policy, though it doesn't actively style itself as Marxist. Beside the former province of Friesland, the State also makes claim to the islands of Texel, Den Helder and Wieringen. Its authority on the Frisian Islands is however not well established and most of them are completely depopulated.
