John Smith
John Smith was an original settler and leader of the Jamestown colony. His early contact with the neighboring Powhatan tribe would lead to the success of the colony.
Early in the settlement of Jamestown, Smith was captured by the Powhatan. This capture would eventually produce the story of his capture and being saved by Pocahontas, the chiefs' daughter. During the second year of the colony, Smith became the president or governor of the colony. He used this power to negotiate, sometimes forcibly, with the Powhatan for corn which kept the colony safe from starvation. Smith was wounded by an explosion and was convinced to give up leadership and return to England.

Answer:
The "California Republic" was an unrecognized state that included the area north of San Francisco. This republic adopted the "bear flag" which is now used as the state flag of the state of California. The flag has a star, a grizzly bear and a red stripe. If California were to separate again, and it needed a national anthem, it could look something like this:
California, California, beautiful and strong,
I can never be away from you for very long.
Your sunny skies, your open sea, your brave history,
Make me proud to be a part of this glorious mystery.
With my fellow Californians, all sons of this land,
Through hardship, through blessings, proudly I stand.
