| Message | The Ultranationalists are a revolutionary political party and armed organization in Macon who wish to return the country back to what it was during the days of the glory days. They believe that the current government does not have the best interests of the Telamonese people at heart, siding with corporate interests both philosophically and economically, and they perceive this to be destroying or weakening Macon. The Ultranationalists idolize Macon out of a sense of national pride, though their actual commitment to Communist political and economic ideals are often left ambiguous and unknown. In this crusade for national liberation, the Ultranationalists consider the powers of the Macon specifically the Republic of Telamon and Hutori, to be major obstacles in their path, as well as any Maconians who do not support their aims, which includes the political wing of the party which advocates peace with the rest of the world. The extremist group's funds come from several criminal activities such as human trafficking, drug trafficking, hijackings, arms dealings and kidnappings. They are supplied with weapons by several arms dealers around the world and over the course of history have committed countless atrocities. |
