The Société Conelibek (from French "Conelibek Society") is an private nonpartisan organization and club whose mission is to represent people of Conelibek, the capital and largest city in Seketan. The Société Conelibek according to its 1917 declaration aligns itself with republicanism, anti-authoritarianism, and Conelibekian interests. The club greatly influences Conelibekian politics with approximately 150,000 regular members and 200 camarades made up of politicians, businessmen, artists, and public figures. The ceremonial official language of the organization is French.

The club was established in 1902 under club president Simon Maledyn; notable founding members include venture capitalist Fyedor Johannysson, then-mayor of Conelibek Danyll Djyjyn, Seketese revolutionary Daffyd Behn, and a dozen members from the Conelibek Assembly. Originally a private social club where members discussed the outlook for Seketese independence from the Nelbec Empire and the security of Conelibek, the organization established its paramilitary wing in 1917 and declared it self a republican Conelibekian organization. During the Seketese War of Independence and Seketese Civil War, the Société Conelibek supported the Kjedorates. By the 1920s, the Société Conelibek became an unofficial governing body of Conelibek. It became tradition for all members of the Conelibek Assembly to formally join the club. When threatened by president Loren Allis, the paramilitary wing was disestablished in 1930. Despite this, the club had significant influence over the Conelibek Police Force. During World War II, the club contributed to providing shelter and refuge to Conelibekians. After the war, the club was responsible of much of the urban development in Conelibek, including the new grid plan infrastructure and Conelibek Metro.

The Société Conelibek is governed by 200 camarades whose membership is invited. The camarades electe a president, the current being Fjedor Erikson, alongside a co-president, a title automatically given to the mayor of Conelibek who is current Dani Kjord. All members of the Conelibek Assembly and heads of Conelibek services are de-facto required to join the club. The club owns various businesses and properties, and co-owns the Conelibek Metro. The club is criticized regularly for corruption.
