The Principality of Freedonia was a micronation based on libertarian principles. It was created as a "hypothetical project" by a group of teenagers in the United States in 1992. The project was formalized as a new country project in 1997, which included attempts in 2001 to lease territory in Somaliland. The attempt to lease land was rejected.

It was headed by a Texas university student named John Kyle, who used the title Prince John. The Principality of Freedonia itself was based in Boston, Massachusetts.
