Fredonia

Fredonia is the name of some places in the United States of America: Fredonia may also be a typo for the Marx Brothers' imaginary country of Freedonia.

Fredonia is also the name of a proposed republic in Texas, founded by Cherokee chief Richard Fields and John Dunn Hunter, a white who'd been captured by the Osage as a child and who was devoted to the cause of establishing an Indian nation. A Committee of Independence was formed on December 21, 1826, complete with a signed declaration. A flag of red and white, representing the row races, was created. Inscribed on the banner was the motto, 'Independence, Freedom, and Justice.'
