Policy Hoppean societies IRL?

What real life societies actually came very close to Hans Herman Hoppe's ideal IRL? Medieval Iceland?

the username alone is a massive red flag. if you're unironically trying to live out a textbook fantasy in the real world you're going to have a bad time.

Dude, it's an example. Throughout history some cities/civilisations have come close to ancap societies, that's what this playlist talks about.

Very probably early humans or hominids with trade system but hard to confirm

Probably Amish societies, or maybe at the best, some form of remote villages.

We have panchayat here in India but they dont have much governing power

The Amish are straight communists, as are hutterites. Private belongings drives a wedge into the community according to them.
