Since Beringovia is a democracy, we do have a loyal opposition, though they can normally expect to be in power in a few years. The real dissenters are socialists, communists and leftists of every stripe who constantly complain about always being shut out of power, and of being "oppressed." The truth is that most Beringovians simply don't share their world view, which is why they have not, and never will, acheive power through democratic means.

The National capitalist party. Basically a bunch of extreme white supremacists that believe in both capitalism and state, while attacking minorities and anybody who they see as "a worthy target". Various capitalist and statist parties also exist, but right wing ideologies (even democratic socialism is considered right wing) are extremely unpopular in Ravineworld, due to the success of anarcho-realism (basically marxism-leninism that evolves into anarcho-communism) combined with high political and civil rights.

The only ones actually thinking themselves as more than a parliamentary opposition are hardcore white supremacists, laissez-faire capitalists and religious fanatics. The People's Commissariat for State Security keeps them from disrupting anything, and arrests any of them who seem to be a danger.

The main dissenters are the members of the Waci independence movement. The largest group advocating its independence is Waci Ayir Ni Caya. Though they are a mere fringe group, and have diminished in popularity extremely in the last 40 years. The movement was started when the province of Waci was acquired over 100 years ago. Political cartoonists tend to play on the unfortunately chosen acronym of "W.A.N.C".

Plenty. Ethnic Realtans, whose culture of fairly aggressive rebellion stretches back a millennium, fight back quite frequently against whoever is in charge, even if it's another Realtan. If they aren't incredibly loyal to the political types in charge, they're usually trying to kill them.

Only xenos and heretics fall under the term 'dissenter'. Both activily seek the fall of the Imperium and the death of humanity as a whole.

The xenos are, obviously, foreign. Although the heretics are national. Neither are tolerated, and are killed on sight unless otherwise directed by the Holy Inquisition. No, people don't back them, unless they wish to be cast in the same light as them, in which they would be given the same treatment.

Please do not say "The opposition party".

The Main dissenters of the Sikasith regime come mainly from capitalists obviously with the most vocal being the"Freedom front" an archno-capitalist terror group.However since
capitalist parties and ideas are not very popular or banned. The more successful dissenters of Sikasith's government come from the more moderate leftists and the democratic socialists
many come from the MPRU party.One of the most famous dissidents is Karl McKinnos ,he is vigorously opposed to Sikasith's rule and politics and has been campaigning for democracy since the 80s
.Karl is currently the ambassador the crystal spires and has been influenced by the ideas of the New idealists .He is going to run as official MPRU candidate in the Sion elections.


But, that's exactly how it is.

The White Party opposes the currently-in-power Blues one issues of foreign relations (isolationism vs interventionism), taxes (Blues want 'em high enough to fund that interventionist military, although still pretty low by world standards), and world economy (Whites are protectionist, Blues extend their free market attitude globally).

There is no opposition worth mentioning to the fundamental gov't structure.

Elements of the former monarch regime. After the coup and revolution agianst the monarch government small groups of loyalists began terrorist activities and planning an overthrow of the government. Others include anti war protesters, right wing politcal movements, religous terror groups, and racists towards the Helghan portion of our nation.

The main dissenters of the Natty is a small community of people living in a poorly constructed town. They do not have any weaponry, they do not possess 'radical' or 'extremist' views, nor do they hold any hostilities towards us. They just decided to leave the nomadic lifestyle for something less mobile.

The communist Joastine, our country was liberated by the republic rebels in 1953 and spread throughout the southern parts of the Kola region (Joastine). Our country signed a peace treaty with the Joastinian officials that South Joastine is a free state for 30 years before the south will be retaken by the older Joastine. If we do not signed that treaty, we wll still be at war. But the older country did'nt really sincerely do it. Series of terrorist attacks and kidnapping happened during 1953-1983. so we get our revenge, during 1983 the communist Joastine threatened us that if we will not surrender they will invade us. But the USA intervened it, which my country and Joastine are forced to signed a treaty that South J. and Joastine must ignore eachother. But this treaty was not followed cause in 2009 the dictator of the Communist Joastine, invaded most parts of South Joastine, Jubila, Norway, and Finland. The war end when a bloody revolution happened in Joastine. Due to this, Joastine changed thier governmet into people's republic.

We're not a regime, and there are opposition parties. However, regarding people who wish to severely disrupt the nation, those would be the Human First Party. While they are technically legal, many of their actions - terrorism, for example - are not. Luckily they mostly operate in Refugia, the refugee province.

Postby Meridiani Planum » Sat Jan 14, 2012 4:21 am

Because the ecomonic left doesn't exist in Meridiani Planum, and is just as historically outdated as feudalism, our opposition comes from other sources.

One source of opposition is the anarchocapitalists inside and outside of the Spontaneous Order Party. Meridiani Planum is a republic that sits on top of community security forces and private law that aren't themselves under government control. The Republic is a form of diplomacy and agreement between the various domes for collective matters such as defense, dome management, and for judging constitutional issues. You'd think that the anarchocapitalists would be happy with this arrangement (since they do get private law at the local level), but some are not happy and advocate the dissolution of the Republic. (It should be noted that some anarchocapitalists regard the Republic as an anarchocapitalist feature in its own right, and as acceptable. They argue that the Republic is merely a nexus for anarchic negotiation to take place.)

Another source of opposition is the Unification Party, which I suppose one may describe roughly as "Hamiltonian". It seeks greater power for the Republic, and wishes to centralize power for greater security against foreign threats.

Another source of opposition, although themselves small and minor, are the worshippers of a being they call Great Cthulhu. They advocate the complete destruction of order and ethics in society, in favor of murder and mayhem. So far, they haven't posed much of a problem in our society, but we are developing military technologies to use against Cthulhu should they be required.

They are national and they are tolerated, as all groups are.

The Communists, anarchists (of all denominations), Liberal Capitalists and Nazis are our primary enemies.

Forgot to mention- they do not receive overwhelming (or even a fair percentage of) support from the American society, which needs a strong government like ours to survive in this world. Nations that follow their ideologies will not be fully trusted.

For being a loose coalition of clans of very violent creatures, there is very little dissent among the population of the Andrellian Isles. Both grulls and wartoks generally enjoy living under the leadership of one strong, dominant leader. Trouble only rises when they don't have respect for their leader and think that they could defeat him and become leaders themselves. The current warchief, Bloodsnout, holds a lot of respect among the wartoks of the isles and so things are calm. Of course it doesn't matter who is the warchief, ultimately the isles are ruled by the shaman Bonegrinder who has killed hundreds of wartoks, and even some grulls, that wanted to replace him. As long as he remain invincible there is no risk of serious split or dissent among his servants.

Despite our government not being a "regime", the only real political dissention comes from the clandestine political entity El Partido de los Trabajadores, or PDT and various associated left wing splinter groups, notably the extreme left wing Ejercito Revoluncionario Oriental, or ERO, which is responsible for many of the attacks and bombings in recent years.

Most of the groups operate and isolated areas in the center and extreme east of the country, with little or no public support. Most of their funding and arms come from the drug cartels and other illegal entrepreneurs, who use them as hired protection from the authorities as well as mercinaries to train goons for the cartels in return for support and supplies.

Anarchist vermin who reside in the Southern Regions, following reunification the supporters of fascism and capitalism gave up eventually given how there protests were machinegunned and any association with someone who was openly a fascist or capitalist got you a life sentence in the labour camps. Propaganda brainwashed the vast majority of the population, leaving disidence at a minimum. However the Anarchists still haven't gotten it through their head yet. Some even have the nerve to attack soldiers of the Koy People's Army, which just gives legitimacy to utilising brutal methods of suppression against them.
