What is a faction?
A faction is a group of individuals united by common ideas or interests within a group or community, or on the contrary, a group of mutinous or rebellious toys. In this case it is a division within a social or political group (the expressions “side” is also used). When the term is used in contexts of mutiny, rebellion or revolt, or even insurgency, guerrilla or civil war, it usually designates a broader-based social movement (partiality of the mutinous or rebellious people; each of the subdivisions of the group main, head or focus of the insurrection). And example of this last can be the Rogue Colonel Rebels or Dr. Madd followers.
There is no obvious difference between political factions and other informal groupings, such as internal “tendencies” within a political party, a government or a society. Therefore, in the World of Plastic as in the World of Toys, a “faction” can indicate either a group of separatist, but non-violent nature, that is part or was part in the past of another large group such as a species or a nation, as well as it can also indicate a warlike group that seeks to separate or demonstrate its point of view or interests in a negative and violent way.
