"A coalition" has the more positive connotation.
Why: "coalition" implies cooperation, partnership or joining forces (often to achieve a common goal), which reads as constructive or pragmatic. "faction" suggests a splinter group or internal division within a larger group and often carries negative or contentious overtones.
Context matters: in some contexts "faction" can be neutral or descriptive (e.g., historical accounts), and "coalition" can sound temporary or purely pragmatic. If you want to emphasize unity and cooperation, use "coalition"; to emphasize disagreement or splintering, use "faction."
