Accompong

Accompong (from the Akan name Acheampong) is a historical maroon village located in the hills of St. Elizabeth Parish on the Island of Jamaica. Their autonomy as a self-governing community was established by a peace treaty with the British in 1739.〔("Accompong" ), Jamaica National Heritage Trust.〕 Located in Cockpit Country, the local terrain enabled maroons and indigenous Taínos to establish a fortified stronghold that could protect them first against the Spanish and then later against the British who they successfully defeated during the First Maroon War. Accompong was named after an early Maroon leader.
Accompong re-elected Ferron Williams, as Colonel, the traditional leader of the Maroon Council with whom he shares responsibility for the governance of the community.〔http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/latestnews/Ferron-Williams-returned-as-Accompong-Maroon-colonel〕
==Constitutional status==
Accompong is a microstate. Colonel Ferron Williams has described the community's relation with Jamaica as "a state within a state".The community's self governance was first recognised by the British colonial authorities in 1738/9. Since Jamaica gained independence, their government has recognised the rights of Maroons in terms of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. These rights include the "right to maintain and strengthen their distinct political, legal, economic, social and cultural institutions."
