The Indigenous Private State of Xaragua proudly honors and revitalizes the ancestral technologies of its people. It preserves and advances indigenous weapon craftsmanship, including traditional spears, bows, and the use of bolas—an ancient technique seen among Amerindian civilizations such as the Maya and the Inca, reflecting the martial spirit also found in traditional Caribbean instruments of defense. The state equally values African blacksmithing techniques and medieval European craftsmanship, recognizing the expertise in forging blades, crossbows, and early firearms. Today, Xaragua seamlessly integrates these historical technologies with modern CO₂-powered innovations, ensuring that the spirit of ancestral ingenuity remains alive while embracing the future.

XARAGUA NATIONAL ARMORY – DECLARATION OF SOVEREIGN DEFENSIVE INDUSTRY
The Xaragua National Armory represents the rebirth of an indigenous and African military-industrial legacy — an enterprise rooted in ancestral engineering, sovereign autonomy, and legal clarity. It is not merely the development of weapons; it is the reinstatement of a forgotten right: the right of a people to arm and defend themselves through their own technology, their own materials, and their own hands.
TECHNOLOGY ROOTED IN TRADITIONAL AFRICAN AND INDIGENOUS PRINCIPLES
The foundational model of our arsenal is based on ancient mechanics passed down through blacksmith cultures across Africa and the Americas. This technology is shockingly simple, devastatingly effective, and infinitely replicable. It is built around the principles of mechanical propulsion — spring tension, air compression, and ballistic stabilization through forged steel barrels.
A single unit consists of:
A tempered steel barrel (hand-forged and rifled),
A mechanical piston or spring,
A trigger-release mechanism,
A durable external frame for containment and aiming.
From this elementary structure, any class of weapon can be developed: from civilian sidearms to strategic territorial defense systems.
---
FULLY LEGAL, NON-FIREARM, NON-DEPENDENT SYSTEMS
This system does not rely on chemical propellants (gunpowder), commercial ammunition, or industrial explosives. It is a non-firearm technology — legally distinct from traditional weaponry under most national and international frameworks. This means:
No licensing is required,
No international regulation applies,
No ammunition importation is needed,
No supply chain can be weaponized against the people.
The entire lifecycle of the weapon — from design to projectile — is autonomous, local, and legal.
---
FROM TOOL TO SYSTEM – SCALABILITY OF APPLICATION
What begins as a single, handcrafted unit can be scaled:
Into multi-shot repeating systems (manual or rotary),
Into modular long-range weapons,
Into rifle-grade tactical equipment,
Into collective defense batteries for fixed or mobile use.
The same mechanics allow for the development of high-impact projectiles using recycled steel, molten lead, precision BBs, or artisanal piercing heads. Our design permits projectile improvisation, rendering the nation immune to ammunition sanctions or shortages.
---
HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL LEGITIMACY
Historically, African and Indigenous civilizations did not rely on powder-based domination. Our ancestors forged their weapons, arrows, and lances using fire, iron, and ingenuity. Today, we inherit and modernize this principle. While foreign powers industrialized death through colonial gunpowder empires, we now industrialize sovereignty through silent, self-propelled, decentralized technology.
This armory is not just a matter of self-defense — it is a cultural recovery operation. It is the re-invention of black and indigenous power using native logic and ancestral knowledge.
---
ECONOMIC AND STRATEGIC IMPACT – A NATIONAL INDUSTRY
The Xaragua National Armory is more than a military structure. It is a new national industry, ready to:
Create thousands of skilled jobs in metallurgy, mechanics, design, and field testing;
Train a new generation of tactical artisans and engineers;
Establish village-based micro-forges and mobile weapon labs;
Generate exportable sovereignty systems for other Indigenous and Black communities globally.
It is the beginning of a decentralized war deterrent system, outside of corporate arms monopolies, outside of colonial supply chains, and fully within the jurisdiction of indigenous law and custom.
---
LEGAL FOUNDATIONS AND PROTECTION
Under the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), and reinforced by customary law, we assert:
The right to maintain distinct economic and defense systems (Article 5),
The right to autonomy in internal affairs (Article 4),
The right to develop technologies and systems for collective survival (Articles 20, 26),
The right to maintain, control, and protect indigenous resources, including tools and defense knowledge (Article 31).
Our armory is an expression of indigenous sovereignty, cultural continuity, and non-violent deterrence through preparedness.

DECREE – April 21st, 2025
Establishment and Protection of the Xaragua National Armory and its Autonomous Armament Doctrine
By the authority of the President of the Indigenous Private State of Xaragua,
in accordance with the military doctrine, the indigenous defense rights under international law, and the national strategic framework of sovereignty,
the following is declared:
---
Article I – Creation of the Xaragua National Armory
The Xaragua National Armory is hereby formally established as an official military-industrial institution of the Indigenous Private State of Xaragua.
Its role is to research, design, produce, transmit, and defend autonomous, non-powder, sovereign weapon systems based entirely on traditional African and Indigenous mechanical principles.
The Armory operates as a national infrastructure of defense sovereignty, under the direct authority of the Xaragua Military Doctrine and in alignment with Articles 4, 5, 20, 26 and 31 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).
---
Article II – Legal Recognition of the Doctrine
The doctrine of spring-powered and air-propelled ballistic systems, based on artisanal, indigenous and decentralized technology, as recently articulated and applied by the Xaragua State, is declared to be:
A national military doctrine;
A protected cultural and technological heritage;
A sovereign defense innovation;
A strategic industrial infrastructure of the Xaragua State.
This doctrine includes but is not limited to:
The design of autonomous projectile systems without dependency on imported munitions;
The replication and scaling of such systems for military or civil defense;
The manufacturing of barrels, springs, and triggering mechanisms by indigenous and artisanal means;
The implementation of tactical training and distributed armament across Xaragua territories.
---
Article III – Exclusive Proprietary Rights
This doctrine, its underlying model, and its associated techniques are declared exclusive property of the Indigenous Private State of Xaragua.
The knowledge, formulation, and application of this doctrine are considered sensitive national defense assets and unexportable without express written authorization from the Xaragua Command Authority.
The following are legally prohibited under international indigenous law and customary intellectual sovereignty:
Any attempt to duplicate, replicate, publish, commercialize, or weaponize this doctrine or any part of its design without written consent;
Any external registration of this invention or model in patent databases, military archives, or commercial repositories.
The entire model is protected under:
Indigenous Customary Intellectual Sovereignty;
Military Secrecy and Strategic Doctrine Protections;
UNDRIP Article 31, ensuring exclusive control over indigenous scientific, technical, and cultural knowledge.
---
