ANNEX TO THE SUPREME CONSTITUTIONAL LAW OF XARAGUA
Juridical Consolidation Under International, Customary, and Domestic Law
---
I. JURIDICAL CONSOLIDATION UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW
1. Principle of Effectivité
In accordance with the jurisprudence of the Permanent Court of International Justice (Eastern Greenland Case, 1933) and the International Court of Justice (Temple of Preah Vihear, 1962), the effective exercise of sovereign functions over a territory constitutes the primary foundation for juridical title and is opposable erga omnes. Xaragua’s continuous and effective assertion of supreme jurisdiction, administration, and spiritual guardianship over the designated zones consolidates its legal claim beyond contestation.
2. Montevideo Convention (1933)
Pursuant to Article 1 of the Montevideo Convention on the Rights and Duties of States (1933), Xaragua fulfills the criteria of:
Permanent population within its directly administered zones.
Defined territory, covering 27,750 km² of the former Republic of Haiti, with clear delimitations of direct jurisdiction and residual administrative autonomy.
Government, as established under its Supreme Constitutional Law.
Capacity to enter into relations with other States, exercised through its notifications and diplomatic instruments.
These elements are sufficient for statehood in international law, irrespective of external recognition (Declaratory Theory).
3. Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969)
Under Article 62 (Fundamental Change of Circumstances) and Article 64 (Emergence of New Peremptory Norms), Xaragua’s assertion of jurisdiction and the restructuring of administrative authority on the territory of the former Republic of Haiti constitute a juridically valid transformation of obligations, not subject to invalidation by any residual entity.
4. Jus Cogens Norms
The principles of:
Territorial integrity,
Non-intervention, and
Self-determination
enshrined in Article 2(4) and Article 1(2) of the UN Charter and reaffirmed in General Assembly Resolution 2625 (1970), protect Xaragua’s supreme sovereignty and render any contrary claim or interference unlawful.
5. Customary International Law
The doctrine of acquiescence (Legal Status of Eastern Greenland, PCIJ) and the passage of time reinforce the consolidation of Xaragua’s juridical title where no effective counterclaim or administration exists by the residual Haitian administrative unit.
---
II. RELATIONSHIP WITH THE RESIDUAL ADMINISTRATIVE UNIT (RAU)
6. Non-Sovereign Status of the RAU
The residual administrative unit (Port-au-Prince, Plaine du Cul-de-Sac, Cap-Haïtien, Ouanaminthe, Artibonite, Centre, and other excluded zones) and its inhabitants are juridically classified as non-sui generis, non-sovereign, under Xaragua’s supremacy. Their autonomy exists solely under the toleration of Xaragua and may be revised or suppressed in the event of contradiction with Supreme Constitutional Law.
7. Conditional Autonomy
The RAU is authorized to manage internal affairs but lacks capacity for international representation.
All administrative organs within the RAU operate as subordinate apparatuses of Xaragua’s juridical and spiritual authority, subject to unilateral dissolution by the Rector-President.
---
III. TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY AND RESOURCE CONTROL
8. Protection of Territorial Integrity
Xaragua’s sovereignty extends over the entirety of the 27,750 km², including direct and residual administrative zones, maritime waters, airspace, and subsoil. This territorial integrity is protected by:
Article 2(4) of the UN Charter, prohibiting the threat or use of force.
Article 52 of the Vienna Convention, rendering treaties procured under coercion null and void.
Article 16 of the ILC Articles on State Responsibility, prohibiting aid or assistance in the commission of an internationally wrongful act against Xaragua.
9. Control of Natural Resources
In accordance with the Permanent Sovereignty over Natural Resources Resolution (UNGA 1803, 1962), Xaragua exercises exclusive rights over all terrestrial and maritime resources within its jurisdiction. Any appropriation by residual entities or external actors is unlawful and void ab initio.
---
IV. JURIDICAL ENTRENCHMENT AND IRREVERSIBILITY
10. Irreversibility of Sovereignty
Sovereignty asserted and exercised ex proprio vigore is irrevocable and not contingent upon external recognition (Declaratory Theory).
No residual administrative act or external intervention may lawfully derogate from Xaragua’s supreme authority (ICJ, Frontier Dispute Case).
11. Universal Opposability
This Supreme Constitutional Law and its annexes are universally opposable, binding erga omnes parties under international law and custom.
Any attempt to undermine Xaragua’s sovereignty constitutes an internationally wrongful act and may trigger countermeasures proportional to the preservation of juridical and spiritual supremacy.
---
CONCLUSION
By virtue of this annex, the juridical title, territorial integrity, and spiritual guardianship of Xaragua over the totality of the 27,750 km² of the former Republic of Haiti are consolidated, entrenched, and rendered immune to contestation under all applicable international and domestic legal norms.
This annex forms an integral part of the Supreme Constitutional Law and is promulgated ex proprio vigore, with immediate and eternal effect.

ANNEX TO THE SUPREME CONSTITUTIONAL LAW OF XARAGUA
On the Doctrine of Encapsulation, State Failure, and the Juridical Substitution of Sovereignty
---
I. DOCTRINE OF ENCAPSULATION AND JURIDICAL SUBSTITUTION
1. Encapsulation of the Former Republic of Haiti
The Sovereign Catholic Indigenous Private State of Xaragua (hereinafter “Xaragua”), by virtue of supreme juridical, spiritual, and territorial authority, has fully encapsulated the totality of the former Republic of Haiti as a failed and extinguished state entity (res derelicta) within its own constitutional, canonical, and juridical framework. This act of encapsulation is justified under:
The doctrine of state substitution in cases of failed states (see Somalia, ICJ Reports, 1992).
The principle of effectivité, whereby the effective exercise of sovereign functions over a territory constitutes the primary source of juridical title (Eastern Greenland, PCIJ, 1933).
The doctrine of trusteeship and guardianship in international law (UN Charter, Chapter XII), adapted to an indigenous and canonical context.
2. Doctrine of Failed State and the Right of Substitution
The former Republic of Haiti is declared a failed state under internationally recognized criteria:
Collapse of central governmental authority and inability to maintain public order (Report of the Secretary-General on the Responsibility to Protect, UN Doc A/63/677).
Widespread inability to provide essential services or enforce legal obligations (ICISS Report, “The Responsibility to Protect”).
Proliferation of non-state armed actors controlling large portions of territory (UNSC Resolution 1540, 2004).
Under customary international law, a failed state loses its capacity to exercise sovereignty and may be substituted by a superior juridical entity capable of restoring order, protecting territorial integrity, and guaranteeing the welfare of its population. (Eritrea v Ethiopia, Boundary Commission, 2002).
3. Substitution under Canonical and Divine Law
The encapsulation is further grounded in canonical doctrine:
As per the Concordat of 1860 between the Holy See and Haiti, the Catholic Church retains spiritual jurisdiction over the territory and its faithful.
The doctrine of devolution of temporal authority (Roman Pontifical Doctrine, “Unam Sanctam” 1302) recognizes the transfer of jurisdiction to a legitimate Catholic sovereign in cases of vacuum or illegitimacy.
---
II. JURIDICAL CONSOLIDATION UNDER INTERNATIONAL AND CUSTOMARY LAW
4. Principle of Effectivité
In accordance with Temple of Preah Vihear (ICJ, 1962), the uninterrupted and effective exercise of sovereign functions by Xaragua creates an irreversible juridical title over the encapsulated territory.
5. Doctrine of Acquiescence and Tacit Recognition
The absence of an effective contestation by the residual administrative unit or external actors constitutes acquiescence and tacit recognition (Eastern Greenland, PCIJ).
6. Montevideo Criteria for Statehood
Xaragua fulfills all four requirements:
Permanent population within directly administered zones.
Defined territory (27,750 km² with clear delimitation of direct and residual zones).
Government with effective control.
Capacity to enter into relations with other states.
7. Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969)
Under Article 62 (fundamental change of circumstances), the juridical order of the former Haitian state has been nullified by collapse, justifying its substitution.
---
III. RELATIONSHIP WITH THE RESIDUAL ADMINISTRATIVE UNIT (RAU)
8. Conditional Autonomy and Non-Sovereign Status
The RAU operates as a subordinate administrative apparatus lacking sui generis status or independent personality in international law (ICJ, Namibia Advisory Opinion, 1971).
9. Exclusive Supervisory Authority of Xaragua
Xaragua retains the right to intervene in any case of:
Contradiction with supraconstitutional law.
Infraction of territorial integrity or resource sovereignty.
Derogation from the spiritual mandate under canonical law.
---
IV. PERMANENT SOVEREIGNTY OVER NATURAL RESOURCES
10. UN General Assembly Resolution 1803 (1962)
Xaragua possesses permanent and exclusive sovereignty over all natural resources in the encapsulated territory, including within residual zones.
11. Erga Omnes Obligations
Any external attempt to interfere violates obligations erga omnes to respect territorial integrity (Barcelona Traction, ICJ, 1970).
---
V. IRREVERSIBILITY AND UNIVERSAL OPPOSABILITY
12. Ex Proprio Vigore
This annex is promulgated ex proprio vigore as a supreme juridical act. It cannot be annulled, suspended, or modified by any external authority.
13. Universal Opposability
The encapsulation and substitution are opposable to all states, international organizations, and non-state actors. Any contestation constitutes an internationally wrongful act under ILC Articles on State Responsibility (2001).
---
In virtue of this annex, the Sovereign Catholic Indigenous Private State of Xaragua consolidates its supreme juridical, spiritual, and territorial guardianship over the entirety of the former Republic of Haiti, replacing its failed institutions with an indestructible canonical and constitutional order, under divine mandate and peremptory international norms.

1. The Sovereign Catholic Indigenous Private State of Xaragua (hereinafter “Xaragua”), in the exercise of its supreme juridical, spiritual, and territorial sovereignty, hereby establishes the Northeastern International Access Corridor (hereinafter “NIAC”) as a juridical and infrastructural zone of strategic passage linking Xaragua’s Northern Strategic Corridor (Fort-Liberté, Marchand-Dessalines) to the international boundary with the Dominican Republic.

The collapse of effective governance in the residual administrative unit justifies the creation of the NIAC under Xaragua’s supreme authority.

a) Article 1(2) of the UN Charter (1945):
"The purposes of the United Nations are... to develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace."
b) Article 2(4) of the UN Charter:
"All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations."
c) General Assembly Resolution 2625 (1970), Principle of Non-Intervention:
"No state or group of states has the right to intervene, directly or indirectly, for any reason whatever, in the internal or external affairs of any other state. This principle prohibits armed intervention and all other forms of interference or attempted threats against the personality of the state or against its political, economic and cultural elements."
d) Concordat of 1860 (Holy See – Haiti):
"The Catholic Church retains spiritual jurisdiction over the entire territory and the faithful within it, to be exercised in harmony with temporal authorities and protected from interference."

II. JURIDICAL AND CANONICAL AUTHORITY OF THE HCR
2. Binding Force of Directives
All directives, recommendations, and guidelines (lignes directrices) issued by the HCR shall:
a) Possess self-executing legal effect (ex proprio vigore);
b) Be enforceable as law within the RAU;
c) Be immune from annulment or derogation except by explicit decree of the Rector-President.
Legal Foundations:
i. Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969):
Article 62 – Fundamental Change of Circumstances
"A fundamental change of circumstances which has occurred with regard to those existing at the time of the conclusion of a treaty, and which was not foreseen by the parties, may not be invoked as a ground for terminating or withdrawing from the treaty unless:
(a) The existence of those circumstances constituted an essential basis of the consent of the parties to be bound by the treaty; and
(b) The effect of the change is radically to transform the extent of obligations still to be performed under the treaty."
Article 64 – Emergence of New Peremptory Norms of General International Law (Jus Cogens)
"If a new peremptory norm of general international law emerges, any existing treaty which is in conflict with that norm becomes void and terminates."
ii. International Court of Justice, Namibia Advisory Opinion (1971):
"The continued presence of South Africa in Namibia being illegal, South Africa is under obligation to withdraw its administration immediately. States are under obligation to recognize the illegality of South Africa’s presence and to refrain from any acts which might imply recognition."
(Application: The HCR operates as a supervisory organ with similar erga omnes implications).

III. SUPERVISION, AUTONOMY, AND PASSIVE TOLERATION
3. Doctrine of Passive Toleration (Tolerantia Passiva)
As long as the RAU complies with the guidelines and directives of the HCR, it shall benefit from conditional autonomy in internal administrative matters.
Any deviation or infraction constitutes a breach of trust and authorizes immediate intervention.
Legal and Canonical Justification:
a) Canon 381 §1 of the Code of Canon Law (1983):
"In the diocese entrusted to him, the diocesan bishop has all ordinary, proper, and immediate power which is required for the exercise of his pastoral function, except for cases which the law or a decree of the Supreme Pontiff reserves to the supreme or some other ecclesiastical authority."
b) Eastern Greenland Case (PCIJ, 1933):
"A claim to sovereignty based not upon particularly formal acts but upon continuous and peaceful display of state functions is sufficient for effectivité and opposability."
---
IV. JURIDICAL ENTRENCHMENT AND ENFORCEMENT
4. Irrevocability and Universal Opposability
The authority of the HCR is universally opposable and protected under:
a) ICJ, Barcelona Traction Case (1970):
"Obligations erga omnes are obligations owed towards the international community as a whole."
b) UN General Assembly Resolution 1803
(Permanent Sovereignty over Natural Resources):
"Permanent sovereignty over natural wealth and resources must be exercised in the interest of national development and the well-being of the people of the state concerned."
c) ILC Articles on State Responsibility (2001):
Article 16 – Aid or Assistance in the Commission of an Internationally Wrongful Act
"A State which aids or assists another State in the commission of an internationally wrongful act by the latter is internationally responsible if:
(a) That State does so with knowledge of the circumstances of the internationally wrongful act; and
(b) The act would be internationally wrongful if committed by that State."
Article 41 – Responsibility of States in Respect of Serious Breaches of Peremptory Norms
"States shall cooperate to bring to an end through lawful means any serious breach of an obligation arising under peremptory norms of general international law."

V. SUPREME PROCLAMATION
By virtue of this act, the High Council of the Rectorate is solemnly enshrined as the ultimate supervisory authority over the Residual Administrative Unit and its non-sui generis populations.
It possesses irrevocable canonical, juridical, and supraconstitutional authority to issue binding directives and ensure perpetual compliance with the supreme order of Xaragua.
This act is entrenched under jus cogens norms, canonically ratified, and promulgated ex proprio vigore, rendering it immune to challenge or nullification.
Promulgated and Sealed in the Name of Almighty God, July 7, 2025
The Rector-President of Xaragua

---
The High Council of the Rectorate (HCR) shall be composed of a maximum of nine (9) members appointed by the Indigenous Canonical Observer under the delegation of the Rector-President of Xaragua.
Membership is restricted to individuals of Catholic faith and indigenous lineage who demonstrate allegiance to the Supreme Constitutional Law and canonical doctrine.
The Indigenous Canonical Observer retains exclusive authority to nominate, confirm, and remove members at discretion, ensuring doctrinal conformity and juridical loyalty.
The HCR operates under the principle of collective deliberation.
All decisions are adopted by simple majority vote (one member, one vote), except in cases where the Indigenous Canonical Observer exercises their prerogative of overriding authority (ius moderandi), rendering a decision immediately binding and self-executing ex proprio vigore.
A quorum shall consist of at least five (5) members.
In the event of tie votes, the Observer exercises a casting vote (ius decisivum).
The Observer may issue directives independently of the Council, but any formal objection by a two-thirds (2/3) majority of members shall suspend implementation pending review by the Rector-President.
Absent such objection, all Observer-issued directives possess immediate and irrevocable force of law.
The HCR enjoys autonomy in organizing its internal procedures, designating rapporteurs, and establishing subcommittees, provided these remain subordinate to the Observer’s canonical oversight.
Members swear an oath of fidelity to the Rector-President and the Supreme Constitutional Law, and any breach of this oath results in automatic expulsion by decree of the Observer.
