That brings up another point. If there were Zeon loyalists in the AEUG, how many of the defected once Axis arrived and the first Neo Zeon war began? The AEUG, despite its name, didn't strike me as particularly anti-Federation as much as it was anti-Titans. Surely Axis would have more comparable goals to Principality Loyalists than the AEUG would have, namely the revival of Zeon.
