---

ARTICLE I – FORMAL DECLARATION OF CAPITAL STATUS

In the full exercise of its sovereign, canonical, and Indigenous juridical authority, and in accordance with the right of all original nations to reclaim and designate their sacred territorial centers, the Sovereign Catholic Indigenous Private State of Xaragua, through its Rector-President, does hereby solemnly and eternally proclaim:

> The city of Yaguana — historically identified as present-day Léogâne — is declared the official Ancestral and Ceremonial Capital of the Sovereign Catholic Indigenous Private State of Xaragua.

This declaration is enacted under ancestral mandate, divine law, constitutional authority, and international Indigenous instruments. It is henceforth binding upon all organs of the State and permanently recorded in the constitutional register of Xaragua.

ARTICLE II – HISTORICAL LEGITIMACY AND CIVILIZATIONAL CONTINUITY

Section 2.1 – Sacred Centrality of Yaguana

Yaguana was the principal seat of the ancient Kingdom of Xaragua, one of the five sovereign Taíno nations of the island historically known as Bohio–Quisqueya (Hispaniola). Under the sovereign leadership of Queen Anacaona, sister of Bohechío and consort of Caonabo of Maguana, Yaguana rose as the civilizational epicenter of:

Spiritual governance,

Indigenous jurisprudence,

Ceremonial diplomacy,

Social cohesion,

And institutional memory.

The Xaraguayan kingdom was historically composed of the provinces of Zui (Miragoâne region) and Yaquimo (southwestern plains), united under Yaguana’s ritual and political leadership. It was from Yaguana that the original sovereign order of the South emerged, structured around sacred law, ecological intelligence, and divine-human covenant.

Section 2.2 – Historical Interruption and Sacred Memory

The violent colonial dismantling of Yaguana began with the massacre of Queen Anacaona and 80 Taíno nobles in 1503, orchestrated under false pretense by Nicolás de Ovando. This act initiated the sacrilegious destruction of a sacred capital, erasing temples, laws, and lineages. However, the ancestral spirit of Yaguana was not extinguished — it endured through oral memory, bloodlines, and the spiritual geography of the land itself.

ARTICLE III – MODERN RESTORATION AND JURIDICAL STRUCTURE

Section 3.1 – Permanent Capital Function

Yaguana shall serve henceforth as the Ancestral and Ceremonial Capital of the State, holding full jurisdiction over all matters relating to:

Ritual sovereignty,

Spiritual law and protocol,

Cultural identity,

Civilizational continuity.

While Miragoâne remains the executive, juridical, and administrative capital, Yaguana is declared the civilizational origin and spiritual axis of the Xaraguayan polity. These two capitals operate in dual sovereignty:

One to govern the present,

One to remember and sanctify the eternal.

Section 3.2 – The Ça-Ira Campus

The Ça-Ira Campus of the University of Xaragua, located in Léogâne, is hereby integrated into the constitutional architecture of the State as the official academic, spiritual, and ceremonial headquarters of ancestral governance. Its functions include:

Preservation and transmission of Taíno cosmology;

Codification of ancestral ritual protocols;

Legal and theological education rooted in Xaraguayan tradition;

Intergenerational stewardship of the covenantal doctrine.

---

ARTICLE IV – LEGAL BASIS AND INTERNATIONAL ALIGNMENT

This decree finds its full legal standing in the following instruments and frameworks:

A. International Law

UNDRIP (United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples):

Article 12: Right to manifest, practice, and develop spiritual and religious traditions, including ceremonies and sacred sites.

Article 13: Right to revitalize and protect cultural traditions and to designate ancestral toponyms.

Article 26: Right to lands, territories, and resources traditionally occupied or otherwise held.

Article 34: Right to maintain and institutionalize Indigenous juridical systems.

B. Canon Law

Codex Iuris Canonici:

C. Xaragua Constitutional Charter

The foundational law of the State of Xaragua permits and encourages the multipolar structuring of state capitals, acknowledging distinctions between:

Executive capitals,

Ceremonial centers,

Ancestral seats,

Educational sanctuaries.

---

ARTICLE V – INALIENABLE AND NON-REVERSIBLE NATURE OF THE CAPITAL STATUS

Yaguana’s designation as Ancestral and Ceremonial Capital is declared:

Perpetual and immutable,

Protected by ecclesiastical and Indigenous sovereignty,

Incorporated into the permanent legal identity of the State,

Immune from amendment, repeal, or diplomatic nullification.

Any attempt to diminish this status shall be regarded as a violation of international Indigenous law, an affront to divine mandate, and an act of juridical heresy.

---

ARTICLE VI – CONSECRATION AND MEMORY

Yaguana is not a symbol.

Yaguana is the origin.

It is the matrice of governance, the throne of memory, and the altar of sovereignty.

From this decree forward, no governance, no formation, no law, no ceremony within Xaragua shall be valid unless it acknowledges the primacy of Yaguana as the ancestral axis of the Nation.

> “He who forgets Yaguana forgets himself.

He who governs without her betrays the covenant.

He who walks with her walks in divine order.”

---

FINAL CLAUSE

Let this decree be preserved in all official registers, sacred archives, canonical codices, and international records.

Let it be cited in all legal, academic, diplomatic, and ecclesiastical affairs.

Let it be remembered, invoked, and venerated until the end of time.

Yaguana is the capital of our memory.

Yaguana is the capital of our order.

Yaguana is the capital of Xaragua.
