The Koli Cộng (English: Kolinomese Communists) were a political organization and irregular military forces established in Kolenomai in 1950. Beginning its work as a political activist organization advocating the spread of communism both in Kolenomai, and in the larger world, it evolved into a paramilitary forces in 1954 when the Kolenomese War of Liberation against Sieuxerr and its allies began. The Koli Cộng had both regular military formations which operated with the Kolenomese People's Army during the war, as well as irregular forces who specialized in guerrilla tactics. In addition, it maintained a network of cadres tasked with the training and equipping of peasant forces on an ad hoc basis. The Koli Cộng leadership claimed that the movement originated in the southern areas of what is now Kolenomai, and was indigenous to those regions, whereas the anti-communist forces portrayed the Koli Cộng as being an insurgency being supported by the Kolenomese government operating from the northern regions of the nation.

In 1976, following the end of the conflict in Kolenomai, the Koli Cộng were disbanded and morphed into the modern Kolenomese People's Defense Force, a contemporary citizens militia which also responds to assist citizens during natural disasters as well as providing extra labor to farming collectives during harvest season.
