Freedom Alliance (Pontesi)

The Freedom Alliance (Selucian: Foederis Libertas, Pnték: Lofrkad Spjogad) is a party in Pontesi that is a conglomeration of various political, social and religious groups working for social reforms and wider representation in today's Pontesi.

History
A coalition of liberals, anti-fascists, (in particular Selucian) minority interests, supporters of the House of Aedinius and religious radical conservatives of the International Crimson Crusade, these are united by little more than their opposition to Pntek nationalism and the Belknap regime. The Alliance stands for a multicultural society, anti-nationalism, regionalism & confessionalism and makes a special reference to Alamar Xarfaxis as the founder of modern Pontesi in it's programme. While the Alliance has a democratic internal structure and a programme based on anti-nationalism, critics belonging to the Pntek Nationalist/Imperialist movement has accused it of being a façade for the interests of the International Crimson Crusade.

Crusader Purists
These represent the hard-right, Hosian nationalist wing of the party. Adamant supporters of the Crimson Crusade, and it's long-dead founder - "Saint" Alamar Xarfaxis - Crusader Purists work to implement a theocratic government with legislation based on the teachings of the Selucian Patriarchal Church and the writings of S:t Alamar. While united in their opposition to Pntek nationalism with the rest, their Selucian nationalism tend to be more in cultural than ethnic lines - favouring the gradual assimilation of Pntek individuals into the Selucian nation. Purists are also among the most anti-Ahmadist of the Society's members, but also tend to be the biggest supporters of environmentalist and animal rights legislation, which is in line with S:t Alamar's biocentric ethics.

Conservatives and traditionalists
The "centre" of the party. Social Conservatives opposing liberal thought and "decadence" united by their support for increased rights to Hosian groupings and support of House Aedinius, they are nevertheless opponents of radical changes and religious fundamentalism. Conservatives inside the society tend to believe in a form of civic nationalism, which will eradicate other identities and the ethnic/religious nationalism associated with such. As supporters of House Aedinius, they tend to view Alamar Xarfaxis in a positive light, as a reformist and freedom fighter, but also tend to largely ignore his meta-political and religious views, such as the view on Pontesi as being an integral part of Selucia.

Cosmopolitan liberals
These organize themselves based on their opposition to Pntek nationalism and in order to archive a multicultural society under the framework of a liberal democracy. While supporting a democratic and pluralistic society, they tend to support various measures to archive equality and fight prejudice, such as affirmative action, laws against hate speech or the dismantlement of traditional Pontesian customs and symbols.
