The '''Settlement Movement''' (Kiravic: ''Trebiktorléran'') is a modern social movement in [[Kiravia]] promoting {{wp|settler colonialism}} through the foundation of {{wp|intentional communities}} overseas, primarily in [[Crona]] and other areas under Kiravian control or influence. The movement comprises a number of different tendencies with different ideological inspirations for their colonial undertakings, which can include {{wp|Coscivian nationalism}} or related civilisational ideas, religious revivalist movements, and Kirosocialism, among others. Settlers and sympathisers who support the same ideological goals and models of settlement governance have grouped together under a number of [[Great Kirav]]-based umbrella organisations that provide financial and operational support for settlements and new settlement initiatives, organise mutual aid and inter-settlement coöperation, and act as an important component of the pro-colonial lobby in Kartika. | The '''Settlement Movement''' (Kiravic: ''Trebiktorléran'') is a modern social movement in [[Kiravia]] promoting {{wp|settler colonialism}} through the foundation of {{wp|intentional communities}} overseas, primarily in [[Crona]] and other areas under Kiravian control or influence.

There is significant overlap between the cultural-preservationist and Coscivian-civilisational wings of the movement, as many preservationist settlements are sponsored by the larger civilisationist-minded organisations, and Coscivianists generally view the internal diversity of Coscivian civilisation as one of its strengths. | ||

The Settlement Movement is led by a number of non-profit organisations, most of which take the form of second-order coöperatives. These organisations serve to structure coöperation among communities with similar ideological leanings and models of governance, help new settlement initiatives obtain land grants and financing, and work with federal and colonial authorities to protect the interests of Movement settlers. | The Settlement Movement is led by a number of non-profit organisations, most of which take the form of second-order coöperatives.

The NFP is inspired by a "Cosco-Cronitic" ideology that claims, in one form or another, either that Crona is the historic homeland of the Coscivian peoples, or otherwise a deeper historical relationship between Coscivian civilisation and Crona that justifies Kiravian expansion there on grounds of irredentism or civilisation restoration. In addition to sponsoring settlements of Cosco-Kiravian emigrants, it has also spearheaded the formation of Movement-style settlements by native Cronites with the goal of "re-exposing" them to their purportedly ancestral Coscivian culture, and spreading pro-Kiravian propaganda. | ||
