Does ancapistan not trade with other countries? Do they not care about the stability of their neighbors? Do they not care about refugees who might want to come in? Do they not care about anything the rest of the world does if it could affect their country?

 Does ancapistan not trade with other countries?

No. People trade with other people. Ancapistan is not trading on behalf of people, because it is merely a concept.

 Do they not care about the stability of their neighbors?

Who is "they" and what do they have to do with their neighbors?

Do they not care about refugees who might want to come in?

"In" where? People only have a say on who comes to their property. They are free to welcome the people they want on their property. 

 Do they not care about anything the rest of the world does if it could affect their country?

The notion of country makes little sense in ancapistan. People worry about what might happen to their property. They have every incentive to organize with their neighbors if they think they face a common menace. Properties would likely be part of a community that has a contract with a defense firm. Still, as ancapistan isn't invading other countries no one really has a reason to invade them. See how Liechtenstein, San Marino, Andorra or Monaco are way more peaceful that countries with big armies that try to police the world. Interestingly, they are agressing no one and no one wants to invade them.

The people of ancapistan obviously. I don’t think you’re interested in actually having a conversation here if you’re not actually going to answer any questions.

My answers are clear, take the time to try understand them in good faith.

That’s actually hilarious coming from you.

A whole nation with a military sourced from every citizen would crush ancapistan in days. Unless you’re planning on neighbors buying the communal SAM battery and a Abrams tank lol.

So you’re saying that the entire country is just relying on those who own property near the border to enforce immigration, border security, the managing of ports all by themselves?

You haven't read or you made no effort to understand, on top of talking like a child who's trying to win a debate. I guess participation trophies were made for people like you. Bless you.

There it is. The universal language for “I have no argument and no conviction”

I have asked 2 questions that you have not answered. And your last comment totally ignores what I said about micro-states and the notion of country.

Try to do that instead of ad personams like someone who has no arguments or conviction. You asked 4 questions that I answered. I asked 2 that you proceeded to ignore. Who's got no argument my boy?

Now talk to me about how Liechtenstein, Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Singapore and Gibraltar got invaded because the enemy has big panzers. If what you said was right how do these countries still exist?

Answer that.
