Gabal forever thumbnail

Investigative report into the group known as Gabal Forever, a small group (less than 100) of people who do not like the way the government and business leaders are catering to foreigners in attempt to chase the tourist dollar. Many of these are 85%-95% ethnically native to the local islands and trace their ancestry back beyond written history through the oral history tradition of their ancestors. These people are upset about the change in their island’s life and would like it to return to what it was 200 years ago before Westerners arrived.

Investigative report into the group known as the Free Sulu Movement or FSM, a conglomerate of anti-federation and independence factions of the Belesian archipelago. The group seeks to break free of the alleged overreach of the Belesian central government and abuses of the Belesia Federation National Guard.
Red Tiger Front

The Red Tiger Front (RTF) is an extreme left-wing anti-fascist and anti-racist political movement active in the US, Europe, and Australia. Though established in its current form in 2005, some of the groups which make up the RTF have been in existence since the immediate post war years. Their recent re-emergence into prominence can be understood as a direct response to the rise of far right populist regimes across the world, as well as violent far right street groups, especially in Western liberal democracies.
Redback Raiders MC

The Redback Raiders Motorcycle Club is a criminal organisation using the cover of a motorcycle club to mask its criminal activities. Originally formed in Manilla, South Torbia, the Redback Raiders have formed into a transnational criminal network that is predominantly involved in weapons smuggling and drug trafficking. Chapters can be found across many western nations. Whilst there are many members who only participate in the shared enthusiasm for classic motorcycles, many new members, especially the younger ones are exclusively involved with organised crime.
Thorskrig

Thorskrig are an extreme right wing and white supremacist organisation with many chapters located across multiple western nations. They style themselves with Viking iconography and are generally involved with low level arms and drug trafficking, armed robbery and extortion. Their main threat to society resides in their propensity for violence and their propaganda activities to destabilise local authorities with anti-government protests. They have been known to associate with other criminal organisation, especially those with a similar right wing ideology.
Visayan Peoples Front

The VPF are an armed insurgent group within Belesia, specifically the islands of Panay, Negros, Cebu and Bohol. They are predominantly a Christian based organisation, unhappy with the Islamification of key islands in Belesia. They are responsible for terrorist attacks against the Belesian Government and have been known to conduct kidnap for ransom, political assassinations, sabotage and extortion. They also conduct non-kinetic actions such as infiltration of key community organisations such as student groups and labour organisations to enable propaganda to support their cause for an independent secular state.
