* The '''Party of the Continuing Revolution''' (PCR) is a far left political party which espouses {{wp|council communism}} and denounces the SRIPP and constitutional socialism as {{wp|Revisionism (Marxism)|revisionist}}. The PCR-SRIPP split predates the settlement of Veltorines in [[Crona]], being founded among exiles in [[1954]], and the disagreement between council communists and constitutional socialists dates to before the dissolution of the original Veltorine state. The PCR is generally [[Urcea|Urceo]]skeptic, opposes continued membership in NSTA, opposes New Veltorina's status as an ethnic state, and, as council communists, generally advocates for the dissolution of the state. It is {{wp|abstentionist}} in practice, and usually comprises only a handful of members of the National Convocation. | * The '''Party of the Continuing Revolution''' (PCR) is a far left political party which espouses {{wp|council communism}} and denounces the SRIPP and constitutional socialism as {{wp|Revisionism (Marxism)|revisionist}}.

New Veltorina has a culture extending back several millennia due to the shared history, common traditions, and imported social mores of the Veltorine people, who emerged in [[Sarpedon]] during the medieval period from the intersection of [[Ancient Istroyan civilization]] and [[Latinic people]]. Beyond this longstanding tradition, New Veltorines have taken on a more militaristic and solidaristic worldview due to the effects of the [[Final War of the Deluge]] on Cronan Veltorines. | New Veltorina has a culture extending back several millennia due to the shared history, common traditions, and imported social mores of the Veltorine people, who emerged in [[Sarpedon]] during the medieval period from the intersection of [[Ancient Istroyan civilization]] and [[Latinic people]].

The "''Feros''", short for "transfero" (transplant), are the second major Veltorine cultural group in New Veltorina. Feros generally moved to New Veltorina during the 21st century, especially following the establishment of [[Cetsencalia]] as a Veltorine principality in [[2015]]. Accordingly, the Feros are first generation immigrants to [[Crona]] and retain nearly all of the extant social mores and traditions of Veltorines in [[Sarpedon]], [[Halfway]], and [[Lariana]]. Feros are usually highly educated and consider themselves relatively culturally sophisticated, preferring higher level cultural amenities in major cities such as New Taxades. The Feros are diverse in terms of political allegiance but have generally similar outlooks. As the Feros are better educated on average than the Brudxi, they tend to have a more philosophical, ideological, and high-minded view of politics. This takes two main forms: about half of Feros are members of the dominant Party for the National Movement and make up the Romantic nationalist wing of that party, viewing New Veltorine nationalism as a culmination of historical forces and ultimately filling a vacuum on the world stage left by the destruction of old Veltorina. The other half of Feros, meanwhile, hold to modified versions of the ideology of old Veltorina, [[constitutional socialism]], with all of the complex philosophical and sociological frameworks that come with it. Many of the Feros were followers of the [[Veltorine government-in-exile]] and then made up virtually all of the membership of the [[Cetsencalia#Veltorine_Social_Council|Veltorine Social Council]] when it was made the governing authority in [[Cetsencalia]]. New Veltorina's Fero population considers itself more internationalist in outlook than the Brudxi, and tend to identify themselves as more in favor of civil rights for indigenous Cronans than the Brudxi, though interntional cultural observers have noted that this distinction may be more relevant in self-identity than actual policy proposals or outcomes. Feros make up many of the high level corporate and {{wp|white-collar}} positions within New Veltorina as well as the majority of members of the National Convocation, but are outnumbered by Brudxi in senior leadership positions within the state and the ruling Party for the National Movement. | The "''Feros''", short for "transfero" (transplant), are the second major Veltorine cultural group in New Veltorina.

The divisions among the nation's ethnic Veltorines have produced a relatively varied national culture, whereby the very identity of being Veltorine is viewed more highly than concrete shared mores and customs, including and especially cuisine. The Feros and Brudxi do continued to share a number of similarities, including the Veltorine propensity for waking early and a late morning (roughly 11 AM) nap, a tradition which shapes the Veltorine workday and eating patterns. | |||
