The Union Movement was an organization created by senior Libertarian Party member, Stickysoap, and his former political rival, a leftist anarchist named Aaron123.

## Union Movement

The Union Movement was created out a power vacuum left by the Libertarian Party as it became inactive.

Many citizens of Adoria were left dissatisfied, when the Libertarian Party, under the leadership of computerguy15, had almost ceased its functions.

The Union Movement began as an independent political organization, which attracted disgruntled libertarians.

The Union Movement refused to take on an official platform, and instead, welcomed everyone to join.

This resulted in the movement becoming home to many anarchists and political extremists.

The Union Movement grew to an immense size, rivaling the actual political parties which were still vying for power in the absence of the Libertarian Party.

## Controversy

The Union Movement allowed its members to don uniform and refer to themselves as "blackshirts."

During the height of the movement, the leaders hosted an event in the capital Adoria City. The event was embroiled in controversy, as the December elections were approaching. Aaron123 gave a speech calling for political violence and for radical political change.

Riots occurred and the situation was worsened when a far-right group known as the National Revival clashed with a far left group known as the Black Dawn, when they both arrived at the rally.

The speech given by Aaron and the riots that ensued are considered by many as one of the most important political events in Adoria's history. As a result, many residents of Adoria City felt motivated to form a separatist movement and ultimately secede from Adoria- leading to the Ador Rebellion. It also bolstered support for radical politics in both the right and the left. Many people also formed politically active armed groups and militias.

stickysoap and Aaron made official public statements where they claimed to not be responsible for any of the violence that occured that day.

stickysoap made an announcement regarding the riots, where he condemned the National Revival and distanced himself from senior members of the Black Dawn. However, he did not make a formal statement, addressing any of the violence perpetrated by members of his movement.

The Union Movement then decided to register for the election. This resulted in the Union Movement instantly gaining twelve seats in Parliament.

The Union Movement eventually merged into the Libertarian Party, wherein the leadership was transferred. When the Libertarian Party revival also concluded, calls for the re-emergence of the Union Movement came. Later in February of 2020, stickysoap attempted to revive the Union Movement himself, but the new Union Movement was short-lived as members has an internal dispute. The dispute is said rumored to be a purge enacted by stickysoap which was a response to an conflict between leftist individuals within the party leaving and supporting other leftist parties. stickysoap exclaimed in public that he had "physically removed the dirty commies." That was the end of the Union Movement. Members fled to join the United Workers' Front or helped in the formation of The New Party.
