The Confederacy of the Dispossessed is a resistance movement arising out of the Green of southern and eastern Keltia as well as northern Eura, active as of 1717 AN. It is believed to have coalesced in response to a series of offensives launched by the Raspur Pact to gain control of territories recently vacated by the Haifo-Pallisican Imperial Trade Union. Towards the end of 1717, the Confederacy of the Dispossessed more or less full control over Moorland following the Evacuation of Moorland.
Organisation
As of 1717 AN the Confederacy of the Dispossessed is believed to be formed of twelve corsair fleets operating in the Sea of Storms and a thirteenth fleet operating in the Strait of Haifa. The highly independent nature of these piratical fleets, each purported to be under the command of a captain-general, has meant that, in spite of the rumoured existence of an "Emperor" amongst their numbers, has meant that they seemingly lack the cohesion necessary to form a state. Nonetheless, their access to warships, military hardware, munitions, supplies, and trained naval crews, combined with their willingness to rove far and wide in plundering expeditions as well as in support of the disinherited of the Green, means that these corsair fleets, specialising in sudden descents on under defended coastal regions, could become a significant threat for years to come.

Notes
For the moment an ideas spitballing page - the ravenous land hunger of the established powers causes a powerful and implacably vengeful new force to rise from the Green of Keltia, threatening destruction and chaos for all.
These people also cause a huge amount of trouble to the Imperial Federation, neutering their goals of setting up a large territory in the area. Instead, the Imperials are forced to settle for sticking close to the Haifa peninsula in for the time being, with ambitions beyond that stifled by short-term financial crunches from colonization elsewhere, coupled by near-term economic woes in rebuilding North Valora following its annexation.
