This nation is a sub-totem of the Rocky Boy Tribe of Ojibway's

Pagan Totem (Nation) is located within Blackfeet Reservation which is located at northwest Montana. The Rocky Boy Tribe of Ojibway's of Montana was set aside a Reservation at Blackfeet Reservation in November 1909 or in 1896.

Though not a first Reservation chief Rocky Boy was given, it is possibly his best known. We can try and gain tribal recognition from Blackfeet Reservation yet we will be told to get lost. Whites can start colonies within Blackfeet Reservation yet the Rocky Boy Tribe is not allowed. And we know we were given a Reservation there.

According to a June 23, 1910 news article, chief Rocky Boy and his Ojibway Subjects, were given land 20 miles north of Blackfoot Agency or Browning.

However, we'll accept an agreement from 1895 that was ratified in 1896, that supposedly sold the west portion on Blackfeet Reservation for $1.5 million.

Reading the agreement causes suspicion. Blackfeet Reservation leaders didn't ask "why do you want to buy our land?" when negotiating commenced.

They first asked about money! That should tell you they had already told the American's they'd sell the land.

Boundaries then became an issue. American's wanted Great Northern Railroad as a boundary. Blackfeet leaders wanted Cut Bank Creek as a boundary.

We know American leaders didn't want mountainous land! White settlers were demanding Reservation land that was good for farming.

Land north of either Cut Bank Creek or Great Northern Railroad, was ceded. Since American leaders wanted Great Northern Railroad as a boundary, land north of GNR was ceded in 1895.

In 1896, American Soldiers were sent to the Great Falls, Montana region to round up 1,000's of Ojibway's to relocate them elsewhere. One location was Blackfeet Reservation. Thus, the 1895 land cession agreement. We can't exclude that!

History

On January 14, 1902, chief Rocky Boy sent a letter to President Roosevelt asking for Ojibway Reservations and claiming that chief Rocky Boy was leader of landless Ojibway's in various locations in the United States.

Chief Rocky Boy was possibly elected highest ranking Ojibway leader in 1902. Though he was denied new Ojibway Reservations, chief Rocky Boy then asked for his Ojibway Subjects to settle on land not surveyed which was accepted.

He actually agreed to accept land allotments in Compact Form. Reservations that had Surplus Lands were subject to their Surplus Lands being ceded. The land allotments in Compact Form become the reduced Reservations.

Fort Hall Reservation in southeast Idaho, was possibly the first Ojibway Reservation given to chief Rocky Boy. That was in 1901. Chief Rocky Boy not only led many Ojibway's to Blackfeet Reservation, he also was in charge of sending his Ojibway Subjects to other Reservations in United States, Canada and elsewhere.

In some cases, land was added to existing Reservations for chief Rocky Boy's Ojibway Subjects. Chippewa National Forest is an example. In November 1909, chief Rocky Boy was forced to relocate to a new Ojibway Reservation at Blackfeet Reservation.

They reached Browning, Montana on Sunday November 14, 1909. Chief Rocky Boy was living at his large Reservation adjacent to Great Falls, Montana before November 1909.

In 1907, there were indications that the United States was not going to honor treaty that created chief Rocky Boy's Reservation adjacent to Great Falls. Chief Rocky Boy negotiated with Senator Dixon about the predicament. Senator Dixon tried helping chief Rocky Boy yet fear gripped American leaders.

In January 1908, St. Peters Mission which is located about 25 miles southwest of Great Falls, was targeted. A school possibly named after chief Rocky Boy, was destroyed by fire. Stone Boy's School, the Wooden Priests Residence and school for Native American girls were all destroyed at St. Peters Mission.

Chief Rocky Boy obviously knew about the incident yet went on. Then on October 18, 1908 it turned deadly. A Game Warden and a Deputized citizen, attacked a small camp of Ojibway's near Holland Lake in Swan Valley. Five were killed including the Game Warden.

Shortly after, chief Rocky Boy became very concerned for his subjects. He needed to keep them out of trouble. He commenced negotiations to avoid war. Ojibway People were defenseless. Within a year, 1,000's of Ojibway's from chief Rocky Boy's Reservation located adjacent to Great Falls and extended to Swan Valley and Helena, had prepared for forced relocations.

Of course, as you already know, one location was Blackfeet Reservation. There were others as well.

Though they wrote each Ojibway Subject was given 80 acres, that is misleading. It was land set aside in Compact Form. Ojibway leaders always demanded land in Compact Form.

If American leaders negotiated an agreement in which part of a particular Reservation was ceded (considered Surplus Land after allotments) and agreed to leave what remained of that particular Reservation in Compact Form, Ojibway leaders accepted that agreement.

If American leaders did not follow agreements and used fraud to allot land to individual Ojibway's who could sell that land to whites, Ojibway leaders became enraged and on occasions had those that sold Reservation land illegally, executed.

There are reports of where the land is. One report states that the headwaters of Marias River or Two Medicine River which is located at Lower Two Medicine Lake, is included. The land extends north to Babb or just north of Babb. The "Forks of St. Mary and Milk Rivers" was written as where allotments in Compact Form were issued.

Determining where their located is difficult. Twenty miles north of Browning, is where Milk River branches to Middle Fork Milk River and South Fork Milk River. Forks of St. Mary River is much more difficult to locate.

They specifically wrote "Forks" of each waterway which indicates two locations for each waterway. Between Lower St. Mary Lake and Saint Mary Lake, is a location where Divide Creek branches from St. Mary River. It's 20 miles southwest of where Milk River branches. Kennedy Creek branches from St. Mary River, 16 miles northwest of where Milk River branches. Otatso Creek and Kennedy Creeks confluence is 20 miles northwest of where Milk River branches.

Supposedly chief Rocky Boy was set aside over 8,000 acres. However, we know that is incorrect. If it's 20 miles from where Milk River branches out to Middle Fork and South Fork of Milk River to St. Mary, and 20 miles from Otatso Creek and Kennedy Creeks confluence (it's slightly north of Babb, Montana) to where Milk River branches, it means chief Rocky Boys Pagan Republic is significantly larger.

We have to include Middle Fork of Milk River near where it enters Milk River, as it's furthest northeast boundary and Otatso Creek adjacent to Chief Mountain or Chief Mountain, as a northwest boundary. We know both Milk River and St. Mary River are boundaries, as well as Lower Two Medicine Lake.

Two Medicine River (it's really Marias River) is a boundary. Birch Creek should be considered the southern boundary. Where Two Medicine River merges with the boundary of Glacier County is another boundary. It follows the counties boundary south to Birch Creek then follows Birch Creek to Swift Reservoir.

The boundary should then extend from where Two Medicine River merges with Glacier County, to Mission Lake than straight northwest to Sharp Lake. From there, the boundary should extend west until it's directly north of Browning. The boundary continues north for 20 miles from Browning.

Then there's the 1895 land cession at Blackfeet Reservation we must place first. It's the 1896 forced relocations at the Great Falls, Montana region that indicates chief Rocky Boy was given a large Reservation in 1896!

Our relationship with other Micronations is origins of their micronation. We take this seriously because we have proof that we have a presence at those micronations (Reservations and Reserves) that chief Rocky Boy prepared long ago for his descendants.

Chief Rocky Boy was their leader. Canada agreed to accept chief Rocky Boy's Ojibway Subjects. England also accepted some of chief Rocky Boy's Ojibway Subjects.

In regards to other nations and our views on them, that is difficult because they can't do much to help our cause. It's more important to align with micronations that take their micronations seriously which means they have historical proof of their nations existence.

Those micronations that have intentions of becoming independent, are nothing new. They've been around for 1,000's of years. They are located in every nation. They became or become discontent from some discrimination, law or religion. They tend to react by declaring they no longer recognize a nation they are citizens of. That's civil unrest which often turns deadly. We don't want to get involved with such groups. We don't want civil unrest!

It's about reviving our land! Blackfeet People are Ojibway. They can deny it all they want to. All Algonquian People are Ojibway. Leaders of Blackfeet Reservation have been problematic for a long time. They know about our prophesy and take it seriously yet are too scared to follow directions.

Politics and Government

Resumption of Ojibway Peoples Totemic System. Ojibway People lived by a Totemic System which is also known as Totemism. There were six major Ojibway Totems. They include: Agriculture; Education & Health (Midewiwin Society); Fisher; Hunter; Military & Police and Trade. Within the six major Ojibway Totems were smaller totems that had the responsibility of work affiliated with the major totem they were in. They took their surnames from their totems.

Geography and climate

Chief Rocky Boy's Pagan Domain, is rugged or nearly all sloping prairie land that becomes more hilly as it extends west. Slightly southwest of Browning, foothills that lead to Glacier National Parks Mountains, commence about a mile.

Heart Butte is adjacent to the Rocky Mountains. Climate conditions vary. Winters are cold yet not as cold as winters are in North Dakota and Minnesota. Chinook Winds warm up this location. Chinook Winds are strong during winter months. Winds can gust up to 80 mph to 90 mph or higher, during high wind storms that happen several times each winter. Summers are mild.

Communities

There are few communities located within Pagan Totem (Nation).

Heart Butte is a distinct community located near 20 miles south of Browning. It has a population of 698.

East Glacier Park Village is located near 10 miles northwest of Heart Butte. We'll exclude that portion of EGPV north of Great Northern Railroad.

Little Browning (aka Seville) is located about a mile west of Cut Bank, Montana. Cut Bank Creek separates the two communities.
