🔒 Paid Article (Sept. 23, 2025): Chief of War: Sovereignty at the Edge of Empire

Drawing inspiration from the drama and history surrounding island kingdoms and foreign encroachment, this essay examines what sovereignty looks like at the very edge of empire. It considers how chiefs balanced honor and survival, how betrayal hollowed alliances, and why the price of freedom is almost always paid by those who refuse to be assimilated. Finally, it connects these lessons to modern forms of sovereignty—especially monetary and identity sovereignty—in a world of soft coercion.
