Movements originating in active micronations within the sector
Ela'r'oech
Pro-Elarian Movements of Runnymede
When it was proven that Runnymede government officials had been descriminatory against those that identified as Elarian, which had previously been used jokingly, a movement started that propelled Charles, an Elarian parliament member of Runnymede, to become prime minister of the nation. The outcome had Charles introduce Anti-Descriminatory policies that addressed Anti-Elarian behavior. Antielarianism may be manifested in many ways, ranging from expressions of hatred of or discrimination against individual Elarians, mainly by pseudo-militant or even military attacks on individual Elarians, though notably on the Elarian military. The movements were a way to counter the Antielarian movements from natives in the nation.
Peace Movements for the Elarian-Alarian Conflict
A small group of Elarian have come out and started a organization known as the Peace Treaty of Micronationalism in an attempt to make Ela'r'oech grow within the micronational community and end the Elarian-Alarian Conflict as well. It gained some traction towards the end of the Elarian-Alarian Conflict and would eventually succeed to an extent following the Cosma Convention's ratification thanks to the newly elected Alarian Head of State, Michael Fraille, and his cooperation with the Elarian-Alarian Peace Process.
Carolusian Movements
Carolusianism is an ideology present in mainly Elarian politics. The ideology mainly supports Charles Madgett as the King of Ela'r'oech, being heavily Royalist. The Carolusians also come from Elarian allied nations, such as Pontunia and Alaria. They mainly form of traditional, conservative, pro-monarchist, and Christian values. The name Carolusian or Carolus comes from latin for Charles. Carolusianism as an ideology does not have many direct teachings, other than the idea that the influence of the Elarian monarchy should be expanded, as well as the support of democracy - to an extent - as well as autonomy for all peoples who wish for it.
Pontunia
Republican Movements in Pontunia
In May 2023, upon calls from the people, Andrew Perdomo suspended the Monarchy of Pontunia in favor of a Republican government where he installed himself as interim President. Perdomo would act as President until reinstating the Monarchy, much to the dismay of many Pontunians. He would reinstate the Republic as the Catholic Republic of Pontunia months later, leading to the Pontunian dispute. Eventually, however, the Catholic Republic would also dissolve in favor of reinstating the monarchy.
Anti-Elarian Movements of Pontunia
Since October 2023, there has been a campaign from Pontunia abroad targeting Elarians. It began after Thomas Jacobs called for the total destruction of Elarians, with Andrew Perdomo then removing all Elarians from the Catholic Republic of Pontunia's discord server. Since then, Pontunians and supporters of Perdomo have been known to harass and instigate arguments with Elarians over Discord and through other means.

Alarian movements
Secession to Ela'r'oech in Alaria
Many citizens of Alaria were in favor of Alaria losing the Second Alarian War or perhaps seceding to Ela'r'oech. The reason for this is perhaps that they feel intimidated, however interviews by ENS claimed that citizens simply thought Ela'r'oech was a superior nation, while others wanting Alaria to die and be revived by Charles so it can enter the LENS. Alaria later after the war did join the LENS, however it was taken out following the Third Alarian War. Numerous organization officials in the Secessionist Movement called for the end of the Elarian-Alarian Conflict. The movement was successful, as Neo-Alaria became a recognized breakaway micronation, seceding from Alaria and then gaining support from Ela'r'oech. Officially, a few months after the Elarian-Alarian Conflict had ended, Alaria had become part of the Empire of Ela'r'oech by popular vote. Neo-Alaria would remain separated from Alaria to some capacity, despite both being parts of the eventual United Kingdom of the Great Bayou until the 2022 Alarian reunification referendum's results. However, despite these results, the reunification of the two states is yet to be finalized.
