The Republicanists represented a group among the Selonians with a specific goal: to leverage Selonia's planetary repulsor in negotiations. Their intention was to cede control of the repulsor to the New Republic, seeking in exchange a firm commitment to Selonian autonomy, both within the New Republic and the framework of the Corellian sector administration. The Hunchuzuc Den, a Selonian community aligned with the Republicanists, frequently engaged in conflict with the Absolutists, effectively participating in an unofficial Civil war on Selonia.
