As concepts and thinkers related to the [[Kilikas Enlightenment]] became prominent in the three Cronan colonies of Farpoint, Songun Coast, and North Cape, many began to question both the pragmatic effect and philsophical basis for rule from [[Kartika]]. The first group to organize around these ideas was the ''Farpoint Correspondence Society'', which was briefly suppressed by colonial authorities but later allowed as a conciliatory measure. Similar societies sprung up among the educated elite of the major cities of the colonies, and in 1784 the various socieiies formed the National League of Crona, an organization that not only intended to lobby for greater political autonomy in Crona but also conducted research and debate about their own national identity. In time, the National League would come to be a pseudo-political party and even a geopolitical organizing entity. Efforts to reach out to [[The Cape|the Cape colonies]] for inclusion in the National League met with only limited interest.
