"Cyberia" has been used since at least 1995 to refer in a generic sense to a group, community, or society united not by geography or culture, but by advanced froms of electronic communication. Sometime a synonym for the future. The most prominent micronations to use the name "Cyberia" are the Federal Republic of Cyberia, the Virtual Commonwealth of Cyberia, and the United Provinces of East Cyberia (U.P.E.C.). Those Cyberias claim descent at least in part from the micronation first brought to the internet by Ken Kerns in 1997.
UPEC has since dissolved, while the Federal Republic and Virtual Commonwealth still exist.
Many of the Cyberias are or have been in a state of conflict with one another since 1998. These conflicts have lead to external action, such as the Micronations.Net Forums imposing a rule
"Any discussion concerning either of the two Cyberias is also prohibited, although simple, factual and non-argumentative announcements about them are permitted."
Neither the VCC or the FRC function as independant micronations any longer.
Other Cyberias have come and gone over time. This is a partial list.
Restored (Imperial) Commonwealth of Cyberia
The Restored Commonwealth of Cyberia, or RCC, was a result of the Third War for Cyberian Liberation, and was an attempt by the Mala'anje, DSSI, the Skunk Apes, Capt. Geoffrey T. Spaulding's Menet Government, reminants of the Cyberian Renaissance Action Party and various Jacobists elements to from a "Restored Commonwealth, based on the fun and freedom of Old Cyberia."
As is the nature of many such coalitions, most either lost interest or became tired of attacks from revanchists interests. The RCC changed its name to the RICC (Restored Imperial Commonwealth of Cyberia) as a Jacobist entity, and is seen by them as a succesor to Free Cyberia.
Democratic Republic of Cyberia
A cryptic reference has been found mentioning the Democratic Republic of Cyberia, dated January 14 1997. This is three years before Jacobian involvement in Cyberia, and nine months before the founding of the Kerns version of Cyberia, to wit:
