Oath of Office for Chancellor & Vice-Chancellor

Ceremonial Object: The Staff of Awenasa

A permanent artifact made of sacred wood, hollowed and filled with oil.

Flame at the top is lit during the swearing-in, symbolizing the new leader as a guide and beacon.

Superstition: If the flame fails to ignite or is extinguished prematurely, it is seen as a sign that the leader is unworthy.

Oath:

"Before the People of Wakaskató, I, [Name], vow to uphold the laws and principles of the United Lands of Wakaskató, to serve with honor, wisdom, compassion, and truth. I pledge to defend our land, protect the freedoms of all who dwell upon it, and walk the path of integrity and courage, never placing self above duty. I shall uphold justice without fear or favor, preserving the harmony of all Peoples. With this flame to light my path, I pledge that in word and deed, I shall honor the past, uphold the present, and safeguard the future of our People, our home, and our sacred trust. I make this vow before a court of law and the People, with full understanding that this oath binds me in law, spirit, and service. Let it be entered into the public record as a solemn contract of governance."

End of Term Ceremony:

The spouse or partner of the outgoing Chancellor/Vice-Chancellor snuffs the flame, signifying the leader’s return to private life.

The outgoing leader receives a personalized smaller electric version of the Staff of Awenasa, serving as a symbolic lamp/trophy.

This ritual symbolizes a promise rooted in history yet open to the future - a reminder that stewardship is an act of both legacy and choice.

Oath:

"With my hand upon the Unwritten Page of the Ledger of Lands, I, [Name], vow to serve the People and Places of [County] with integrity, diligence, and unwavering care. I pledge to honor the memory of those who shaped this land before me, and to guide its future with wisdom and restraint.

Obwaandi'eyaag

5859 AH – 5974 AH - also widely known in earlier records as Pontiac, was an Odawa statesman, military leader, and one of the principal founders of the United Lands of Wakaskató. Remembered as both a war chief and a confederation architect, he played a decisive role in transforming scattered Indigenous resistance into a unified continental political movement that ultimately helped create the Wakaskató state.

Born in the Great Lakes region in 5859 AH, Obwaandi'eyaag first rose to prominence during the conflicts surrounding the French and Indian War. An assassination attempt against him in 5900 AH during a diplomatic mission in the Illiniwek Country became a turning point in his life. Surviving the attack convinced him that isolated tribal resistance could not withstand European imperial powers. In response, he began advocating for intertribal unity and a coordinated diplomatic front, promoting the principle that no nation should negotiate alone with foreign empires. Throughout the following decades he traveled widely among the Odawa, Ojibwe, Potawatomi, Shawnee, Miami, Lenape, and Illinois Confederacy, building a network of alliances that later evolved into the Council of Nations.

During the War of Liberation against Britannia, Obwaandi'eyaag emerged as a key leader of the United Colonial & Indigenous Alliance alongside George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. While Washington directed continental military strategy, Obwaandi'eyaag coordinated Indigenous alliances, frontier warfare, and diplomatic integration between tribal nations and colonial settlements. After independence was secured in the Treaty of Waawiiyaataanong (5922 AH), he became the chief advocate at the Constitutional Convention for protectorate autonomy, tribal sovereignty, and shared federal authority. These principles shaped the governmental structure of Wakaskató and led to the creation of the Vice-Chancellorship to ensure Indigenous representation within the national executive.

On Ayaru 1, 5923 AH, Obwaandi'eyaag was elected the first Vice-Chancellor of the United Lands of Wakaskató alongside Chancellor George Washington. Serving two terms, he helped stabilize the young nation before retiring in 5931 AH. He died Ayaru 20, 5934, near Cahokia in the Illiniwek Country, leaving a legacy as one of the architects of Wakaskató's multinational federation and one of the most influential Indigenous political leaders in Wendake history.

Ocasio-Cortez, Alexandria

AOC - (Born Ulūlu 28, 6134 AH), the 34^th Vice-Chancellor and later 35^th Chancellor of the United Lands of Wakaskató, was a pivotal political leader during and after the Great Reset of 6183.

Originally a Katóni Councillor of the People representing Nouvelle Angoulême Protectorate's 14^th District (6164–6173) under the Democratic Party, Ocasio-Cortez rose from grassroots activism to global statesmanship.

Following the assassination of Chancellor Gavin Christopher Newsom in 6182, she was appointed Vice-Chancellor under Peter Paul Montgomery Buttigieg.

Within a year, after Buttigieg's death from radiation poisoning in the aftermath of the Great Reset, she assumed the Chancellorship amid unprecedented planetary crisis.

As the first woman of Borikén descent to lead the unified protectorates, Ocasio-Cortez directed the reconstruction of the Wakaskató regions, championing renewable energy systems, social equity reforms, and ecological restoration projects that stabilized post-cataclysm civilization.

Re-elected in 6184, her leadership marked a defining era of moral resilience and environmental renaissance, earning her the title "Mother of the Renewal."
