The Bangsamoro Republik, officially the United Federated States of Bangsamoro Republik (UFSBR)[4] was a short-lived unrecognized breakaway state in the Philippines. Nur Misuari, chairman of the Moro National Liberation Front issued the Proclamation of Bangsamoro Independence on July 27, 2013 in Talipao, Sulu and declared the capital of Bangsamoro to be Davao City.[5]

History
According to Misuari, the republic's territory encompasses the islands of Basilan, Mindanao, Palawan, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi[4] where the Bangsamoro traditionally lived. However, according to Misuari's legal counsel, Emmanuel Fontanilla, the state also encompasses the Malaysian state of Sabah and Sarawak.[6][7]
This declaration of independence, which was made under the authority of the United Nations General Assembly 1514 resolution of 1960 granting independence to all colonized countries,[better source needed] [3] escalated into the Zamboanga City crisis.[8] The MNLF, the group which proclaimed Bangsamoro is an observer of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation.
As of September 28, 2013 with the defeat in Zamboanga City by the Philippines government, the MNLF no longer controls any territory openly anywhere and the Bangsamoro Republic has been debilitated. However, the MNLF has not renounced its bid for the independence of the Bangsamoro Republik.
Etymology
The term Bangsamoro comes from combining the Malayo-Polynesian word bansa (Manobo and Lumad languages: bangsa), meaning nation or people, and the Spanish word moro, which was originally applied to the Moors that ruled Spain prior to the Reconquista, and was subsequently applied to predominantly Muslim Malay tribes. In Maranao, moro also denotes a captor (other nuances: myakauro, miyaoro, miadakep).
Background
Earlier declarations
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
An independent state of Bangsamoro Republik was first declared on April 28, 1974,[9][10] two months after the siege of Jolo, Sulu after the MNLF first attempted to raise their flag.[11]
Zamboanga City crisis
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
MNLF commander Asamin Hussinhe stated in September 2013 that his group would only release some 200 civilian hostages held in Barangay Kasanyangan once they are allowed to proceed to Zamboanga city hall and hoist their flag in front of it.[8] During the crisis, the MNLF managed to gain de facto control[according to whom?] of three districts of Zamboanga City.[better source needed] [12][13]
Present
Nur Mirusari is the UFSBR's Interim President according to the MNLF.[14] A government in exile for the Bangsamoro is also considered by Misuari[6]
