LITTLE FREE STATE
KLEIN VRIJSTAAT
In 1877 some Boers from Transvaal acquiered lands in the South Western parts
of the Swazikingdom.
In 1886 they set up their own provisional administration. As the Swazi didn't
react, the region so became a de facto independent "state" called Klein
Vrijstaat. (1)

(1) The name was very well chosen as the population of the state
    never exceeded 100!
