What this reference is
Semantic Sovereignty documents how meaning, terminology, and canonical definitions are governed, versioned, and constrained in machine-consumable systems.
The focus is on structural control of semantics, not on interpretation or persuasion.
What this reference is not
This reference does not provide political theory, cultural commentary, legal advice, or normative claims about language ownership.
It does not evaluate correctness of meaning, only the governance of definitions.
