===National League of Crona and independence===

Within the context of increased company control over the South Cronan colonies, several new ideas began to proliferate throughout the Cronan colonies in the 1760s. Historians cite two sources for these: concepts and thinkers related to the [[Kilikas Enlightenment]] from [[Kiravia]] began to spread, but the recently incorporated [[Urcean people|Urcean]] settlers of the [[Julian Belt]] continued to adhere to their [[Culture_of_Urcea#Attitudes_and_worldview|traditional worldview on society and government]], viewpoints that spread to the Coscivian heritage settlers as well. Together, these ideas became prominent in the three Cronan colonies of Farpoint, Songun Coast, and North Cape, many began to question both the pragmatic effect and philosophical 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.
