immemorial. Antonio
Pigafetta saw this. History can attest to this. In fact, there are more than two thousand royals and nobles in the country, as compared to the few "huge" names in British or Spanish monarchy. In the country, these ancient titles were re-recognized and affirmed again with the passing of the Indigenous Peoples Rights Acts or simply known as IPRA law. This law was passed by the Republic of the Philippines to make amends to the injustice done by Spain to the native royalties and the native societies of the Philippines. The title of the prince was granted under a provision in this law. The National Commission on Indigenous Peoples of the Republic of the Philippines issued Administrative Order No.1 – Series of 1998, Rule IV-Part I, Section A to C. Here is the link:
321:.Dear David. The problem with finding only internet sources makes Knowledge very limited in scope. First, it is true that the Norman Academy and the Ruggero II University were incorporated in the United States. But both got their license to operate from the Republic of the Gambia as per the Ministry of Justice registration there (with special assistance of the President of the Republic of Gambia!) himself. How can you call this a hoax! Now, How can I send you the documents when they are not online? Tell me and I will gladly comply to the satisfaction of your curiosity and doubt. In relation to the University of Bouake, you might be reading from an outdated source. Please refer to this link:

International
Stateless Persons Organisation (ISPO). This NGO assists and provides representation to stateless persons throughout the world. Stateless persons are those not considered citizen by any country under the operation of its law. These are the people where no country protects nor care for. If the question of his being a tribal noble becomes a blockade in this direction, then I may gladly assist in re-editing the article to this effect. Thank you.
280:. Strong claims (such as in this case being royalty) need strong sources, and I can't find them in this case. I note that the supposed "Studiorum Universitas Ruggero II in Italy" that (our article says) gave him an honorary degree appears from some evidence on the web to actually be an association in Boca Raton, Florida, closely connected with another Boca Raton organization, the "

Philippines, please know that this has a very complex story. But allow me to discuss it to you in a nutshell. Tribal titles of nobility in the Philippines were there since time

Here you will read the law that became the basis of the prince title. Again, how can I send you a scanned copy of the certificate of grant and the tribal council of elders' proclamation affirming this title? It is easy to discredit but very hard to repair comments once they have already been done,

may also be relevant for untangling this; that article has somewhat reliable looking sources for
Aguilar's title and says incidentally that he made up and conferred a title "Grandmaster of the Royal Order of the Calamian Sun" on his son; that title is claimed in Cruz's article, so perhaps there is

Dear David and
Heather, thank you for both for the enlightenment. If ever the question of notability will suffice as the main issue here, I think the one great deed that this person did and is still working on which is worthy of acclaim was his move to found an international NGO called the

It was not me that called it a hoax. And I'm very easy to find offline but doing so will do little good: what we need here is not something that will persuade one editor at a time that the claims in this article is true, but rather something with which all editors can

I would hope that something so dramatic and national would have reliable secondary coverage. The other problem with a certificate of grant from you is that it is original research which we can't use to verify the main information in a
