The Sovereign State of Good Hope, also known as the United Stated of the Cape of Good Hope, is an unrecognised nation declared on 17 July 2018 by Khoebaha Calvin Cornelius III, the recognised head of the Royal House of the Khoisan Nation.[1][2][3][4]
According to the Sovereign State of Good Hope's official website, the goal of their newly founded nation was "to restore a state of dignity to those who are impoverished and suffering; to overhaul the education system in a way that teaches compassion and practical skills, whilst eradicating the lies, fabrications and misrepresentations from history. The Sovereign State of Good Hope intends to assist all people realise their fullest potential, and to live in a fair, just, peaceful, sustainable nation." The article also states that the Khoisan people, native to the Cape region, were marginalized and alienated by the current South African regime. "Despite extensive efforts to engage with the new Regime over restitution of historic wrongs arising from colonial and foreign invasions, the Khoisan have remained marginalised and alienated from the new Regimes’ circles of favour, consideration and benefit."[5] The Sovereign State of Good Hope is roughly the same size as the Cape Republic, one of the biggest secessionist movements in South Africa.
