Modern Era Declaration
Kwa'mutsun Nation State
FOUNDING STATEMENT - CHARTER - CONSTITUTION
The State
Whereas, since the beginning of time, sovereign
persons with legal capacity and juridical subjectivity of
these lands within the west coast of Turtle
Island North [today known as North America] have gathered as a continued
independent people with juridical personality for mutual intent of
forming an understood nationality; and, therein, have caused a
set of common cultural practises to occur over time, including a structured
language; and have bonded together within a certain perceived social
contract with the intent of establishing the security of the individual
human being or natural person in a society organized in a
centralized form of government; and, further, having developed a state of
leadership within a set of rules, these People have passed forward to each
subsequent generation the accumulated knowledge of individual and common duties
of care therein; and, thereafter, within a tradition of allegiance to the
rights and duties there have arisen for the purposes of leadership the
lineage of the absolute monarch of this independent state;
hereafter to be known as Kwa'mutsun Nation State.
This said territorial sovereign Kwa'mutsun Nation State lies within a
defined territory, recognized and respected by other persons and people beyond
this said territory as being held in absence of debellatio. Her Royal
Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem, suis juris sovereign, being the legibus
solutus monarch, holds suis juris juridical personality.
The independent absolute monarchy of Kwa'mutsun Nation State of Her
Royal Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem holds territorial sovereign pretensions ab
initio never having been relinquished by debellatio.
Suis juris Sovereign prerogatives are held by Her Royal
Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem and must be construed within relevant corpora
juris including jus imperii, jus gladii, jus majestatis and jus
honorum. Her Royal Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem reigns and rules motu
proprio directly or indirectly, at Her pleasure, by duly appointed
agents.
Her Royal Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem, while exercising sui juris
absolute sovereignty over the Kwa'mutsun Nation State (an independent sovereign
state, under international law) acts as the Head of State, Head of Government
and Head of the Church of the Kwa’mutsun Nation State.
The Kwa’mutsun Nation
State’s nature is intrinsically identified as follows:
1.an established nationality
since before 10,000 years ago, Hul'qumi'num' being the foundational language;
2. one government body
presiding, wherein there are the judiciary, executive and legislative branches;
3.one continuous settlement
in its traditional territories since the beginning of time;
4. an historical and modern
era practice of commerce and trade with other independent sovereignties; and,
5. a continued declaration
and exercise of being independent in spirit and practice.
The founding charter and
constitution declarations are rooted within the oral customary laws and
practices of the Kwa'mutsun People. In modern terms, these said customs and
constitutional practices continue to be preserved within the traditional and
confidential longhouse organization. Publication of contemporary tomes are
translated from the traditional Hul'qumi'num' language, which holds absolute
precedence over any other language, into the English language, for educational
purposes only.
Kwa'mutsun Nation State is a
dynastic state of Her Royal Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem, whose dynasty has
been reigning and ruling consecutively since man descended from the Creator.
Citizenship is a qualified, regulated privilege, at times, mediated through
birthright. Any person who is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of Her
Royal Majesty Stitumaatulwut Hwuneem is Her Royal Majesty's subject. As the
Military Head of the Kwa’mutsun Nation State, Her Royal Majesty Stitumaatulwut
Hwuneem assures territorial integrity with vigour, preserving the traditional
roles of Peace, Trust and Friendship / Gus Wen Tah / Two Row Wampum.
