Interstellar Association of Fascists

The Interstellar Association of Fascists, or simply the Fascist Association, is a legal neo-fascist political movement within the Coalition of Congressional Republics. It is the only fascist political entity to exist on the international level within the Coalition, being established in 2254 by a Hyperian-born veteran of the Coalition Forces Authority, Isak Dòmhnall. It rose to international prominence in the late 2250s and early 2260s as Dòmhnall's campaigns across the reunited CCR drew support from those disenfranchised or otherwise negatively affected by the Corporate Revolution, to the point of many political commentators within the Coalition warning of a "second dawn of fascism". Throughout the 2270s and 2280s, the IAF would peak in power and initiate several events such as the first fascists to gain seats on the General Congress of the Coalition and the instigation of the 2278 European riots across the European Federation. Even so, its modern form is much less politically active, only being involved in anti-megacorporation political activities.
The IAF was officiated in 2263 by the Coalition; this move, although controversial at the time, was done by the government as a means to contain all international fascist activity under one identifier, and to in turn force repudiation upon those who sought to spread fascist ideologies in illegal and unsavory manners. The IAF would peak in membership in 2273, with over 8 billion members in various affiliated fascist groups existing mainly in the Periphery and the nascent Frontier, with major power blocs on Hyperion and Earth. However, by the 2400s, the IAF would begin to see a significant decline due to an endless surge of smear campaigns launched against it by political parties such as the New Democratic Party and Congressional Republican Party.
Still present in the modern day, the IAF has turned away from attaining the pipe dream of clout in the modern political climate. They instead operate in a more charitable fashion, donating to the poor and downtrodden in addition to like-minded interest groups and individuals. However, the IAF's member groups are rumored to be involved in a miscellany of criminal activities; mainly those relating to the funding of racialist and nationalist gangs, separatist movements, and violent radicals. They have also been designated by the Security Information Network as a possible source of international-scale sedition and terrorist activity against the Coalition.

By numbers, the largest member of the IAF is the Fascist Party of Hathor, representing fascists within the Stellar Republic of Hathor and mostly concentrated within the Planetary Republic of Hyperion with tens of millions of members. Since the 2300s, however, the Fascist Party of Hathor has been unable to breach into the politics of neither Hathor nor Hyperion.
