He was the founder of the self-proclaimed Principality of Trinidad, claiming title over the uninhabited island of Trindade in the South Atlantic Ocean.

James 1
The Epistle of James is a general epistle and one of the 21 epistles (didactic letters) in the New Testament. It was written originally in Koine Greek. The epistle aims to reach a wide Jewish audience. It survives in manuscripts from the 3rd century onward and is dated between the mid-1st to mid-2nd century AD. James 1:1 identifies the author as "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ" who is writing to "the twelve tribes scattered abroad.” Traditionally, the epistle is attributed to James the brother of Jesus (James the Just). This has been widely debated, with some early church figures affirming the connection and modern scholars often viewing the letter as pseudonymous due to its sophisticated Greek, possible dependence on later texts, and the lack of evidence for James’ Greek education. During the last decades, the epistle of James has attracted increasing scholarly interest due to a surge in the quest for the historical James, his role in early Chri ...
