Wiradjuri Central West Republic
Declared sovereign Aboriginal nation / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wiradjuri Central West Republic is an unrecognized Aboriginal nation of Wiradjuri people, one of several such micronations that have asserted their autonomy within Australia as part of a separatist movement named the Sovereign Union.[1] Declaring independence on 22 January 2014, at Wellington council chambers,[1] the declaration served to assert the Wiradjuri people's inherent sovereignty, challenging the Australian government's authority and advocating for self-determination.[1] It is the latest of a string of aboriginal declarations of independence on the continent, the others being: the Murrawarri Republic on March 30, 2013, the Euahlayi Peoples Republic on August 3, 2013, and the Republic of Mbarbaram.[2]
