Personal coat of arms of Frédéric I

On August 28, 1873, the Criminal Court of Paris ruled that Antoine de Tounens, first "king of Araucania and Patagonia" did not justify his status of sovereign.

Since the death of Antoine de Tounens, seven French citizens have been successively appointed as sovereigns of Araucania and Patagonia. These were King Achilles I; Prince Antoine I; Queen Laure-Therese; Prince Antoine II; Prince Philippe I; Prince Antoine IV and the present sovereign, Prince Frederic I.

French lawyer, Orellie Antoine de Tounens was appointed by the highest Mapuche Lonko's (chiefs) of the nation, among them Lonko's Kilapan and Kalfukura and the Mapuche High Toki, Magnil, in a traditional indigenous Mapuche constituent assembly, thus assuming the title King Orellie Antoine I of Araucania and high Toki (high chief of war) in a traditional indigenous Mapuche Parliament known as a Futa Koyang (in mapuzugun Mapuche language) on 17 November 1860. The Kingdoms councils were composed entirely of Mapuche citizens as follows: Lonko's Kalfukura (son of Lonko Huentecurá) - Minister of Justice; Lonko Kilapan-Minister of War (son of High Toki Magnil (1800-1860); Lonko Montril - Minister of Foreign Affairs; Lonko Quilahueque - Home Secretary; Lonko Marihual - Minister for Agriculture.

Lonko's, Lemunao, Huenchuman, Huentecol, among others, also actively participated in the creation of the Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Araucanía and Patagonia was represented by Auspice Stella a French non-profit organization whose purpose was to fight for the recognition of Mapuche human rights and self-determination from 2013 until July 2023 when all Mapuche members of the organisation were expelled and the human rights departments eliminated by four former members of the Kingdom serving as the board of directors and by the director general of the NGO. The Kingdom has since established a new Human Rights body and is currently in the process of making a new application to the United Nations for special consultative status.

Frédéric Luz became actively involved in the work of the Kingdom of Araucania and Patagonia in 2014. Jean-Michel Parasiliti di Para also known as Prince Antoine IV of Araucania and Patagonia named him minister of communications and judge of arms of the Kingdom of Araucania and Patagonia. He was also made vice-president of Auspice Stella, NGO with United Nations ECOSOC special consultative status which works to promote Mapuche rights at the highest level of the international community.

On March 24, 2018, Frédéric Luz was elected pretender to the throne of Araucania and Patagonia.

On March 21, 2023, Prince Frédéric removed two Councilors from the Council of the Kingdom and two Councilors from the Council of State. He stripped them of their titles, offices, and distinctions. On April 12, 2023, the four deposed Councilors plus three other Councilors who still held their offices met to depose Prince Frédéric and to name a new Prince. Currently, the rebel party is led by masonic historian Pierre Mollier who uses the title Regent. The rebel party promises the election of a new Prince of Araucania and Patagonia in March or April 2024. Prince Frédéric continues to have four loyalist Councilors who support his reign. He has not been seen in public since August 2022.
