Barayin DAO’s initiative is to use modern technologies to build a more prosperous and free world for future generations. The DAO acts as the foundation for other DAOs in a large ecosystem. It is the centerpiece, which connects all the other DAO projects together. This document, and this project, are still in the early stages and subject to considerable changes.
Commonwealths of Nation
The next component of this ecosystem is the system of commonwealths of nations. These DAOs are responsible for managing broad geographic multinational communities within given regions. The job of the commonwealths is to maintain cooperation and build prosperity for multiple connected nations, by strengthening bonds, educating, and providing general support. Below are a couple of the prototype commonwealths being built.
Anidé DAO
America is a rich and diverse region of the world, and one with plenty of scars from its past. There are many Americans, from all walks of life. There are those who are of the first nations to arise in region. Others are new arrivals. And there’s a great divide between the two. The goal of the Anidé DAO is the heal the scars of the past and build a more cooperative future, while preserving heritage from the past.
Canaan DAO
There’s perhaps no part of the world more fragmented and chaotic than Canaan. Sitting at the crossroads of Africa, Asia, and Europe, it has been home to many. Out of all the places in the world, there are few that have been fought over as much as Canaan. The goal of the Canaan DAO is to reduce the amount of conflict in the region and rekindle a connection between modern nations in the region and their Canaanite roots.

Domain Specific DAOs
Unlike league of nation DAOs, the goal of the domain specific DAOs is to improve sociocultural and economic conditions within a given issue or domain. In the future there will be many domain specific DAOs, spanning numerous issues including public health and security.
Arcadium DAO
The first domain specific DAO to be built, Arcadium’s function is to support entertainment, both in the web3 space and beyond. Arcadium recognizes that entertainment is far from a luxury, but rather is a basic need that is important to a healthy life, in moderation.
Structure
The DAO ecosystem being built under Barayin DAO is complex. It’s based on the idea that every operation (an ongoing set of tasks to service a purpose) though not every project, should have its own separate DAO, even if a parent DAO holds all the governance tokens. Thus, we believe in distributed autonomous operations. This setup has a number of benefits, including the ability to easily spin off any operation at any given time, giving it independence.
The idea behind the Barayin DAO structure is that every operation and initiative within the ecosystem requires its own DAO that can function semi-independently, or even fully independently if those managing the operation choose to disconnect it from the original DAO. The following is a basic outline of the connections between DAOs. The Barayin DAO itself manages multinational, or commonwealth of nations, DAOs. The national DAOs are hidden from view due to number. Each commonwealth of nations jointly manage sector DAOs. These DAOs manage large sweeping areas of life. These DAOs in turn manage initiative (or domain) DAOs.
While complex, even in the incomplete form here, we ague that any map of the connections between human organizations would be as equally complex. And the project isn’t starting off with the expectation that all of these DAOs will be built at once, or that they will have many members in the beginning. It’s part of the idea of keeping a highly structured system which is possible through DAOs and other similar technology,
Distribution
Tokens for the Barayin DAO and its associated DAOs will be distributed by non-traditional means. There is no traditional initial token sale. There are no core VCs. Multiple distribution contracts have been set up to distribute tokens to users in various ways, including through gamified distribution.
