Rebel factions are groups of people who oppose the established government or authority in a country. They often form when individuals or communities feel that their rights are being ignored or oppressed. These factions may use various methods, including protests, armed conflict, or political maneuvering, to achieve their goals. These groups can vary widely in their beliefs and objectives. Some may seek to change specific laws, while others aim to overthrow the entire government. Notable examples of rebel factions include the Zapatista Army of National Liberation in Mexico and the Syrian Democratic Forces in Syria.
