People's Democratic Armyball

The People's Democratic Armyball was a former pro-democratic and anti-Japanese occupation political group active in Korea during the period of the Transitional Government, made up by mostly centrists, liberals and some social democrats from the former South Korean Government. They had at the beginning participated in meetings of the Heavenly Movement out of anti-Japanese sentiment, but they criticized it for being linked with the Russian Greater SFSRball that was a totalitarian stalinist dictatorship.

Following the continuity struggle for national liberation in Korea, the PDA started to become behind the heavenlists in almost everything. The armed actions of the group were unable to cause the same amount of harm on the Japanese as the ones of the heavenlists. Some Korean-Americans tried to lobby in NAUball in order to get some support to the group and reduce the power of the pro-Japanese lobby in Washington, they got some support from American institutions in this period, however they still failed to organize like the heavenlists did.

When Ling Chinaball's army entered in Korea to expel the Japanese from the Asian mainland, they treated the PDA as fellow enemies and cracked down on their mobs. Later, the members of the PDA who survived the Chinese persecution tried to ingress in the politics of United Koreaball as they had also opposed Japanese imperialism and struggled to liberate Korea from the puppet government. However the Korean government under Chinese and Soviet guidance became a totalitarian juche dictatorship and refused to engage in talks with the PDA, starting a massive national campaign to crackdown on the group.

They started to engage in violent activities against the government and its institutions, attacking party offices and participating in sabotage campaigns, they still were defeated and lost their national influence during the massive crackdown against it. The group remained influential in the opposition, mostly among the Korean diaspora community in Japan and the West, due to the Korean juche government being very reppressive, they had difficulties to organize inside of Korea. They would attack Korean government targets outside of Korea, mostly in Europe and North America. Ling Chinaball classified the PDA as a terrorist organization and following it, the group was recognized as such by the entire of the International Socialist Blocball, so killing members and sympathizers of it was justified.

Though the group had a very liberal and centrist ideology at the beginning with a dominant center-left element, sponsoring a civic nationalist ideology that was against foreign armies in Korea, after the juche takeover of Korea, a lot of conservatives infiltrated it, including christian extremists and right-wing nationalists. The Korean diaspora communities especially the ones in North America were very anti-communists and supported right-wing to far-right ideas.

During the Civil War in United Korea, the group had close ties with the Cheongugs and participated in many efforts to sabotage the juche government, with members of the group in Japan sending arms to the rebels in Korea and many exiled ones in North America, Australia and Europe going to fight in Korea. With the defeat of the rebels following the intervention of Ling Chinaball, the headquarters of the group were attacked by Red Americaball terrorists in Washington and their leadership was killed, forcing the group to re-organize.

The PDA had actively cooperated with anti-government groups in Korea following the fall of Sun Chinaball and its Korean allies into a war period, where different from China they managed to have partial success just, mainly because a lot of Chinese and Soviets went to fight in Korea to prevent part of it from falling at the hands of the opposition. They were involved in the foundation of Goryeo Republicball, though later they started having internal discordances and became in opposition to the dominant government.

PDA would find common grounds again with the heavenlists and other communists during the period where Korea was under Imperialist Koreaball, a puppet of the Chinese Empireball, even though they refused to cooperate. They also fought for their independence from the Japanese and Chinese occupation and hoped for Democracy, And has a strong influence on Jaesun Koreaball, thought that they will bring Heavenly Democracy to Korea and put an end to Totalitarian Rule, but they did not, they continued to fight for Korean Democracy in a political way.
