The Principality of Bir Tawil Announces its 2025 Sustainable Tourism Campaign
Bir Tawi Principality, a unique and unclaimed territory nestled between Egypt and Sudan, prepares to open its gates to sustainable tourism, unveiling an extraordinary opportunity for adventure seekers, cultural enthusiasts, and eco-conscious travelers. Bir Tawi Principality is member of the Unrepresented United Nations (UUN) and the Antarctic Lands Organization (ALO)
The Principality of Bir Tawil, under the stewardship of His Serene Highness (H.S.H.) Prince Giovanni Caporaso Gottlieb, has unveiled an ambitious tourism campaign for 2025, positioning the remote desert enclave as a beacon of sustainable tourism and cultural preservation. At the heart of this initiative is the Marianne 1 Station, the principality's capital, which combines innovative environmental solutions with respect for the traditions of the local Ababda and Bishari tribes.
A Land of Discovery
Bir Tawil Principality is a territory that defies modern notions of sovereignty. Known as a "terra nullius,", it spans 2,060 square kilometers of the Nubian Desert. While the arid expanse lacks significant natural resources, its isolation has preserved its status as a jurisdictional anomaly, free from state control by Egypt or Sudan.
Under the leadership of H.S.H. Prince Caporaso Gottlieb, the Principality of Bir Tawil has transformed this unique status into an opportunity to explore models of sustainability, sovereignty, and human collaboration. Central to this vision is the Marianne 1 Station—a model of resilience, innovation, and eco-conscious living.
Marianne 1 Station: A Hub of Sustainability
Marianne 1 Station serves as the administrative and cultural center of the Principality. Its infrastructure reflects a harmony between modern innovation and traditional nomadic lifestyles. The Marianne station features:
-
Sustainable Water Systems: Cutting-edge condensation technology extracts moisture from the arid desert air, ensuring a steady supply of potable water for the station’s residents and visitors.
-
Eco-Friendly Design: Structures are inspired by traditional nomadic tents, offering flexibility, mobility, and environmental integration.
-
Cultural Preservation: Marianne Station 1 serves as a meeting point for the Ababda and Bishari tribes, fostering dialogue and cultural exchange with visitors.

Partnership with Egypt: Expanding Opportunities for Bir Tawil Principality
The Principality of Bir Tawil has established a cooperative relationship with Egypt, utilizing Aswan as a gateway for travelers. This partnership not only facilitates access but also supports Egypt’s booming tourism industry, which welcomed nearly 15 million visitors in 2023.
Bir Tawil adds a unique dimension to Egypt’s offerings, appealing to tourists seeking off-the-beaten-path adventures and sustainable experiences.
Sustainability at the Core
The Principality of Bir Tawil is deeply committed to environmental stewardship. Marianne 1 Station is designed to thrive in harmony with its surroundings, using minimal-impact technologies to ensure the preservation of the fragile desert ecosystem.
Through its Antarctic Token (AAL), a cryptocurrency aligned with global conservation goals, the principality funds ecological and cultural initiatives. The token empowers both residents and visitors to contribute directly to projects that sustain the principality’s vision of a self-reliant and eco-conscious society.
Looking Ahead: A Model for the Future
The Principality of Bir Tawil is more than a tourism destination; it is a living experiment in sovereignty, sustainability, and cultural preservation. Prince Caporaso Gottlieb's leadership has created a platform for dialogue about governance, resource management, and the ethical stewardship of unclaimed territories.
With the launch of its 2025 tourism campaign, the Principality invites the world to witness and participate in a groundbreaking venture that redefines the relationship between people and the land they inhabit.
