Moresnet, an short lived, Esperanto speaking community
from /r/vexillology Top comment: You can read all about them [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral\_Moresnet) but in short, this was a small town with its own government that adopted Esperanto as its official language. Sadly it was annexed by Belgium in the Treaty of Versailles

Neutraal Moresnet tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog. Het ministaatje werd in 1815 gevormd om een oplossing te bieden voor het conflict om de zinkmijnen. Zowel Nederland, Duitsland en België claimden het bezit van deze kostbare mijnen. Om verdere escalatie te voorkomen werd het mijngebied tot neutraal gebied verklaard. Het telde toen 200 woningen en 500 inwoners.
Bij de vrede van Versailles werd het landje opgeheven en definitief aan België toegewezen.

Neutral Moresnet during the First World War. The mini-state was formed in 1815 to provide a solution to the conflict over the zinc mines. Both the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium claimed ownership of these precious mines. To prevent further escalation, the mine area was declared neutral. It then counted 200 homes and 500 inhabitants.
At the peace of Versailles the country was finally assigned to Belgium.

Moresnet @ AMRA by Peter Van Gestel on Flickr.
Via Flickr: Het viaduct van Moresnet nabouwen met haar lengte van ongeveer 1100m lijkt in HO gekkenwerk. De clubleden van AMRA hebben bewezen dat het kan. De modelspoorbrug was alvast de trekpleister van hun jaarlijkse opendeurdag. Ditmaal werd de 50ste verjaardag van de club gevierd. De Antwerpse zusterverenigingen waren eveneens van de partij in de feestzaal van het fort. “To exactly recreate the viaduct of Moresnet (with hair length of about 1100 m) in HO seems crazy. The club members of AMRA have proven that it can. The model bridge was the attraction of their annual open house. This time was celebrated the 50th anniversary of the club. The Antwerp sister associations were also in the Banquet Hall of the fort.”

Ook Neutraal Moresnet viert de wapenstilstand op 11 november 1918. In inwoners van deze dwergstaat waren zich op dat moment nog niet van bewust dat hun land in 1919, als onderdeel van de vredesbepalingen, zou worden geannexeerd door België.
Neutral Moresnet also celebrated the ceasefire on 11 November 1918. At that time, residents of this dwarf state were not yet aware that their country would be annexed by Belgium in 1919, as part of the peace provisions.
