Sovereignty Group Project

 * Research**: select a sovereign tribe, either within Kentucky or tribe mentioned in //Indian Country Diaries.// Find out all you can about this particular tribe's sovereignty. How do they govern? How do they determine membership? How do they support themselves financially? Are there any struggles within their community or with the US government?
 * Declare**: as a group, declare yourselves to be a sovereign tribal nation. Determine what kind of government system you will adopt: 1) a three-branch democracy, 2) a direct consensus model of democracy where participants debate issues until they reach consensus, 3) an authoritarian system where they select one or more leaders to make all the decisions. Declare what rights and responsibilities your nation should have and what symbols you might adopt. Some examples might be: flags, logos, basic needs sucha as food, health care, education, laws, and how those laws will be enforced and a constitution. Also, show how your nation will be supported financially.
 * Create:** a poster board showing exactly how your form of government will look and operate. Use images and textual information to represent all that you declared as a tribe.
