2. What is XL Nation?
The Global Nation for World Wide Wealth,
Connecting the World’s Change Makers
3. Why are we here?
• In 2001 inspired individuals, entrepreneurs, and business people had a vision
for the future – referred to as Vision 2020 – where it was understood that the
fulfilment on the UN Millennium Goals may not happen if left to local
governments because of their limited remit; the world’s “movers and shakers”
would have to be the ones to transcend local limitations – and unite globally to
bring about change
• The positive social changes the Founding Members stood for was summarised
in three words: “World Wide Wealth”; this includes such important causes as
the eradication of hunger and poverty, sustainable living, human
empowerment, and the experience of fulfilment available for all people: that
every person can give and receive at their full potential – our definition of
“Wealth”
• In 2008, the Founding Members formed XL Nation, “the Global Nation for
World Wide Wealth, Connecting the World’s Change Makers”
• Today we have citizens around the world making a difference in their local and
global communities, fulfilling and expanding the Founders’ vision

6. How does the nation work?
• XL Nation is a Community of people from
around the world that share a common
purpose and a common language to
accelerate our fulfilment of the purpose
• Our Purpose: We are the Global Nation for
World Wide Wealth, Connecting the World’s
Change Makers
• Our language is given by the principles of
creating wealth – contributing and receiving
fully – through a set of principles known as
Wealth Dynamics
• Wealth Dynamics provides a set of profiling
tools, concepts and principles that enable
individuals and organisations to be in flow to
create wealth naturally and sustainably
• This combination of deep, powerful connections
forged by a common purpose with tools to
accelerate our ability to contribute and receive
fully creates a unique nation – one where
literally anything is possible
7. Where XL Nation is headed...
“Rather than being a country people are born into, XL
Nation is a country people are born for.”
“XL Nation is on its way to be
the first borderless Nation
defined not by history,
geography or lines on a map –
but rather by the difference
people want to make.”
“Facebook is like a country
organised around a platform;
XL Nation is a country
organised around a promise
– the future is here.”
“We find that a focus on fulfilling the Promise (as opposed to
being Popular or other survival-based approach to governance)
has only expanded and accelerated our effectiveness and created
an environment of trust and certainty. We are well on our way to
being the first Nation in the World to be IN FLOW.”
“As a successful person, I
often find myself mentoring
others. With the Green
Room, I finally have a place
where I can establish
meaningful connections with
like-minded peers.”
“We have come a long way
this year and are now in
Surplus”
