Danellandia 
world land inspired by Peace and Nature

Already as a child, Pedro felt he was not really fitting in well in this world. At an early age, he became aware of what he named “evil eyes”. He was afraid of some people because he felt they were not be trusted.

He was lucky to grow up in a quiet family, where they cared for him and made him feel loved. He grew up in a family with three generations. His great-grandfather was his best friend. They were nearly always together. He was his first teacher in human values like respect for people, respect for Nature, honesty, trust and truthfulness. Till today, he is one of Pedro’s main sources of inspiration.

Pedro loved Nature. He was fascinated by it. He liked people too, but was afraid of some people. Especially when they raised their voices, shouted or quarreled. He wondered why some people were like that and others were not.

Beacon or guideline of Peace

One day, he was only six, he was thinking why he did not like some people. He had a kind of conversation with his heart or what he called “Little One” or “Little Brother”. Suddenly, he felt he had been given the answer. He felt as if he was melting away completely. As if absorbed into a different world. It felt so good. He never forgot about it. It was like a beacon he could set sail to or like a guideline for the rest of his life. In short, faith in goodness and Peace.

Pedro lived quite a normal life, but rich in experiences. He enjoyed being with family and friends and enjoyed Nature. He enjoyed making people laugh and feel happy.

He was quite a good student and learned several foreign languages. It allowed him to travel to a lot of countries and to see first-hand the huge contrasts between rich and poor. He met and talked to people from many different social classes: from successful businessmen, highly ranked officials and royalty to development workers and street children. The contrasts made him see again the “evil eyes” and he started wondering why these contrasts existed and why they were often so profound. He continued to have conversations about it with “Little One”, which he had come to call Peace or Pax as he grew up.

Pedro made some very good friends at home and abroad. He also met soul mates. One of them became his partner. She felt Pedro and herself shared a lot of interests and a strong empathy with people and with Nature. She has been supporting him more than is usual in couples or relationships.

Pedro liked his job and his life. He was good at languages and writing and he helped to defend people and some he helped to study or find a job – some of them started to call him Dad out of gratitude.

He was quite happy, until something went wrong. The company he worked at changed its management and some managers did not seem to get along with him. He felt neglected and harassed. It all led to a “brain clash”. For weeks, he was thinking about why it all ended up that way. And about how and when he could escape from it. And about why “evil eyes” were ruining the lives of so many people around the world.

Dream of Liberation

One day in 2004, early in the morning, he had a dream. A dream in which “Peace and Nature or Natura Mater” presented him first the world as it is today with its many problems, like violence, wars, Nature degradation and abuse of children and of many other innocent people. It was a sad story and Peace and Nature seemed to be very upset and angry. In the second part of the dream, Peace presented him a new world. A world where people had solved those problems by having found the key all humans share. They had (re)discovered it and had found common ground to build peace on. They shared common human values or Peace and Love.

The dream was first like a “brain clash” and then a dream of “liberation”. Not only for Pedro himself, but also for the entire world of today. Pedro decided he was going to quit his job and work freelance, giving him time to write about what he had seen in the “dream of liberation”. But, things went wrong again… In short, because he seemed to be a bit too happy and too enthusiastic about his “new assignment” and because during the dream he had spoken all languages, a neighbour and doctor advised for him to be taken to hospital. There he was given a tranquilizer. He reacted very badly to it. He fell into a deep medicine-induced depression.

It took about two years to get Pedro out of it. He was kind of liberated again. This time by natural medicines and alternative nature-respecting medical treatment. Again, Nature played a prominent role in his recovery. And so did his faith in goodness or Peace.

Land of Peace

After he recovered, Pedro relived the dream in ever more detail. Intensively and for weeks on end. He took many notes inspired by the dream. He started discussing the many issues presented in it with people from many different countries and backgrounds. On the internet and in real life. It all led to the creation of an imaginary land of Peace inspired by Peace and Nature and having as its Constitution common human values. Values shared and strengthened across all borders and walls of countries, nations, races, religions, political and economic systems, genders…

The new land or World land of Peace was called Danellandia. Pedro and friends from around the world started to promote the ideas and projects through articles, poems, short films and other material. All with the aim to promote Peace as the respect for human values. Strong human values to build a good and just world for all.

Terralandia

For years, Pedro and his friends have had the idea of creating a new land of Peace in reality as well. A land that we called Terralandia. A land that could be created in Latin America or in another part of the world where there is still a lot of space, but where infrastructure and the financial means to build it are lacking.

Terralandia or a land where people from around the world living in war and in other violent environments and wanting peace, could live together – also with local people now living in poverty or working in hostile and harsh circumstances. All sharing common human values and enjoying life with family and friends – from across the world.

Now, seeing the horrible circumstances in war-torn countries (but also in many other countries), the realization of the project of Terralandia is more than needed. Seeing so many people suffer needlessly, while having done nothing wrong at all, is making us suffer too. It hurts also seeing some abusing them because they have the power, weapons and means to impose their ideas and philosophies. Ideas and philosophies so often contrary to Peace and true humanity.

Politics at a loss

All countries should become like Terralandia and finally make the world ready to become like Danellandia or World land of Peace. 

In many countries around the world, political parties are often becoming so antagonistic or hostile towards each other – even to the point of not being ready to work together and build a government. This leads to instability and polarization and corrodes the trust of people in government and politicians.

When adding to that the confusing and often fake news spread through social platforms and other media, you create hostility between the various groups of the population. In some countries, weapons are readily available and are a threat to people having a different opinion.

The situation seems to become ever more conflictive in several countries around the world. 

In some countries, religious differences add fuel to the conflict between parties and different groups of the population. Resulting in incredible violence and atrocities. 

Appeal to Humanity’s best of humanity

We call upon all leaders and all countries sharing the desire to build and strengthen Peace and having the empathy to feel the suffering of so many innocent children, men and women in war-torn and other countries to create Terralandia as a new land of Hope for Peace. And likewise, to be inspired by what Terralandia offers as a way out of conflict locally as well – applying or trying to apply the legislation of Danellandia – based on Lex Mater. 

Please, show the best in you and in your country and create the land of Peace and/or rebuild or adapt your country itself in line with Lex Mater. 

Please, donate substantial financial means and gather the best of expertise to build it. Learn from it by sharing this project of pure and supreme humanity. Extra financial means could be found or created if the project of the etico or humanitarian currency could materialize (it may still look impossible, but the impossible can be made possible, if we abandon divisions that stand in the way of cooperating and Peace).

We call upon the leaders of Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and/or of other countries around the world having space to develop a new land, to help make it come true. You may be reticent at first, but your own country will be helped too. The international community will help your own country as well through the investments and the development of Terralandia. It will not be a kind of colonization this time, but a genuine and Peace-inspired project to the benefit of all: locally, regionally, nationally and globally.

Please show the best in you and make it happen.

We hope this project will materialize soonest and reflect the biggest humanitarian effort ever. Showing that people when joining forces around Peace and human values can be greater than anything thought possible.

Please make it happen and make it possible for people to escape violence and death.

On behalf of Peace (yes, indeed), we thank you very much indeed!
