[[Image:Revolutionary_Organization_17_November.jpg|thumb|300px|17 November, a violent Marxist-Leninist organization]]
The [[Revolutionary Organization 17 November]] (also known as November 17, 17 November, 17N or N17, Greek: Επαναστατική Οργάνωση 17 Νοέμβρη), based in Greece, was one of the most active terrorist groups in Western Europe in the [[1980s]]. The group's name derives from the [[November 17]], [[1973]] student uprising in [[Athens]] that was violently quelled by the military [[junta]] ruling Greece at the time.
17 November is a violent Marxist-Leninist organization. It's ideology is anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist, and anti-United States/NATO. The group has been critical of the Greek government for not addressing issues such as the situation in [[Cyprus]], the presence of US bases in Greece, and Greek membership in NATO and the European Community.
