Maroonage refers to the practice of enslaved individuals escaping from plantations or oppressive systems and forming independent communities, known as maroon communities. These communities often settled in remote areas, such as forests or mountains, where they could live autonomously and resist recapture. Maroonage played a significant role in various regions, particularly in the Caribbean and South America, as it symbolized resistance against slavery and colonial oppression.
