A '''coalition''' is a pact or [[treaty]] among [[individuals]] or [[groups]], during which they [[cooperate]] in joint [[action]], each in their own self-interest, joining [[forces]] together for a common cause. This alliance may be temporary or a matter of convenience. A coalition thus differs from a more [[formal]] covenant. Possibly described as a joining of 'factions', usually those with overlapping interests rather than [[opposing]].A coalition might also refer to a group of [[citizens]] uniting behind a common [[goal]]. Many of these are grassroots [[organizations]]  [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition]
