An
innovative project aims to purchase a sparsely inhabited
territory and establish a modern, technological country
there, envisioned as a tourist destination comparable to
Dubai or Singapore. The major highlight of this new
nation will be its system of government:
Corporarchy.
The creator of the
Taured
World project, Brazilian J. Helios, argues:
“If families can
govern countries, as currently happens with Saudi Arabia,
Qatar, or Brunei, why couldn’t a corporation govern a
country?”
The proposed system breaks away from traditional models
of government. In the Corporarchy, the State is the
Corporation and the Corporation is the State. The Head
of State also serves as the nation’s president and the
corporation’s chairman, while the Head of Government is
the prime minister and CEO, responsible for the
executive administration of the country.
“This is a
technocratic model that combines business efficiency
with political independence. It will be the first
private State in the world. However, we do not intend to
change the government of any country, but rather to
develop a prototype, a model of governance for the
society of the future that will be structured around
humanity’s most advanced technologies, such as
artificial intelligence, robotics, biotechnology,
quantum computing, etc.,” explains J. Helios.
The initial phase of the Taured World project
materializes in the creation of a
micronation and the NFT collection
“The
Lords of Taured”, launched on the OpenSea
platform. There are 10,000 generative digital avatars in
PFP (Profile for Picture) style, designed with a
steampunk aesthetic in aristocratic attire. Each NFT
represents a Founding Lord, and whoever holds this token
in their wallet can consider themselves one of the first
citizens of the future Nation of Taured.
The collection was created on the Ethereum blockchain,
and
2,500 NFTs are being distributed for free. Once
these are sold out, additional NFT packages will be
progressively offered, following a pricing schedule set
by the organizers.
According to J. Helios:
“Owning a Lord NFT
means not only having an exclusive digital artwork, but
also becoming an active part of the foundation of a
model of national governance that will go down in
history.”
The next phase will take place after the financial
resources from the NFT sales are raised, when a complete
business plan will be prepared to present to future
investors. The plan will cover aspects such as
economically viable regions to be purchased, acquisition
prices, national constitution, infrastructure and urban
planning for the capital, resort projects, creation of a
blockchain, cryptocurrency, and the citizen token for
the first residents of the new country.
“Our project is
consistent, enduring, and long-term. We want to found a
prosperous country whose capital will be futuristic,
served by many robots, with all public services
automated, entirely managed and operated by artificial
intelligence, oriented toward tourism and leisure, but
also established as a scientific and technological
reference center,” envisions J. Helios. |
