ABOUT US
What is the Aboriginal Republic of North America?
The Aboriginal Republic of North America (ARNA) is the world’s first Indigenous government, rooted in the ancestral lands of North America, spanning what are now the United States of America, Mexico, and the American Islands. ARNA conducts a national plebiscite to establish an autonomous Indigenous government for Aboriginal Americans and individuals of Moorish descent who were unlawfully denationalized and forced into a status of prisoners of war, often misrepresented as slavery. This denationalization disregarded international treaties and violated fundamental rights. Claiming a proper political status is essential for addressing these historical injustices, as terms such as “African American” or “Negro” are misnomers that prevent lawful remedies under Indigenous sovereignty.
Headquartered in the Atlan Nohol Region 3, present-day Atlanta, Georgia, ARNA is led by National Chief Amaru Namaa Taga Xi-Ali. The organization’s initiatives are designed to foster economic, cultural, and political self-determination, contributing to the growth and prosperity of an autonomous Indigenous nation. These efforts include Aboriginal University courses to revitalize education and culture, sustainable agricultural projects through the Aboriginal Farming Project, and the development of international legal services for global advocacy. Additional programs include the Aboriginal Medical Association, which provides health products and services, financial recovery initiatives to empower economic independence, and Aboriginal Global Media Services to amplify Indigenous narratives. ARNA also supports Indigenous Military Training and Intelligence services to enhance security and offers entrepreneurship programs to encourage business development. Together, these programs aim to restore sovereignty and secure a thriving future for Indigenous peoples.
Who are the Xi-Amaru?
The Xi-Amaru, historically known as the Olmec, are recognized as the oldest Indigenous civilization in the Americas, famed as the pyramid and mound builders of North America. The term "Xi" means "The People of the Tree," with the tree symbolizing the Earth’s energetic life system and the sacred covenant between the Creator, Halah, and the People, Xi. "Amaru" translates to serpent, chief, or warrior, and within Indigenous culture, the serpent holds a distinct meaning compared to its interpretation in Christian or Judaic traditions. It represents the creative power of the universe, often depicted as Kukulkan or Ququmatz, the winged serpent associated with sacred knowledge, cosmology, and astronomy. These names were later misinterpreted as Quetzalcoatl by invading Aztecs.
Other historical names for the Xi-Amaru include Allegewi, derived from "Ajaw," meaning king in the Xi language, and Pawahtun, a term misrendered by the British as Powahtan. Pawahtuun refers to the "four parts of the year," reflecting our ancient calendars and celebrations. The British further renamed us after Baron DeLaWar following the Anglo-Powahtan wars, leading to terms like Delaware. Our ancestral tribes, including the Delaware, Powahtan, and others along the Atlantic and Southern regions, were historically referred to as “black tribes” of Aboriginal Americans before the 1800s.

What is the International Indigenous Society now called the IPA (Indigenous Political Authority)?
The Indigenous Political Authority, as an instrumentality of the Aboriginal Republic of North America (ARNA), is dedicated to advocating for the human rights of Indigenous Peoples globally. Its mission includes facilitating a plebiscite to address the legal identity of Black/African Americans, ensuring recognition of their rightful status. ARNA actively supports organizations, NGOs, and institutions that promote self-determination, human rights, and autonomy for Aboriginal and Indigenous communities.
​
To achieve these goals, the Indigenous Political Authority collaborates with Indigenous institutions, sharing expertise in institutional building, Indigenous political science, and strategic planning. These partnerships also focus on developing economic and legal strategies to protect and empower Indigenous Peoples. Through these efforts, ARNA continues to champion the rights and sovereignty of Indigenous communities worldwide.
