Gneisenau Circle

The Gneisenau Circle (German: Gneisenau Kreis) is the name the Imperial Gestapo gave to a group of conservative Imperial dissidents centered on the estate of Friedrich Albricht at Franzenplatz, Western Offenbach. It is regarded as the main center of opposition to the Imperial regime. The difficulty for all such dissidents was how to reconcile patriotic loyalty to East Europa with opposition to the Imperials, when the Imperials had subverted the state to such an extent that the two were almost inextricable.

The Flag of the Imperial Opposition, Also adopted by the Gneisenau Circle.

Currently, The Gneisenau Circle has more than 75,000 Resistance Fighters across the Imperial Lands with activities including sabotage, espionage, search and rescue and full total cooperation with the Allied nations. The group has also assisted in the 2018 Attempted invasion of the Erebonian Empire.
