Rennian Political Parties
Since the formation of the United Commonwealth Republic of Rennia, many Political Parties have formed along various Ideological and Policy Lines.
As a rule, Meblat Sessions (Governments) are defined by the associated President (i.e. First Meblat = Rex I), administrations are defined by party or coalition due to the high probability of a coalition being required to form an administration, and the relative volatility of Coalitions within a single Meblat Session.
Major Meblat Political Parties
Kastortast Vinna - Prosperous Path
KVPP, the first Rennian Political Party was formed by Faith Arazske, the first Prime Minister of Rennia, initially made up of just her Cabinet Ministers, to try and form a clear, shared political vision within the cabinet. Thanks to this move, her administration became known as "Kastoras Vinna I" rather than the Parliamentary Standard "Arazske I", which set up the convention for future Meblat Administrations to be named after the name of the ruling Party or Coalition.
KVPP is a primarily Centre-Left leaning party, at its formation focused primarily around minority rights and furthering international cooperation.
National Party of Unions
The NPU was formed to represent Rural Interests, especially those of Farmers, across Rennia, primarily concerned with the growing option for Rennians to consume imported foreign foods as Rennia became more interconnected with the Balkavanians; in the EotLP's early days in the Balkavanians, due to their Pariah State, their internal Farmers had a captive audience and made a killing, but saw falling profits when trade barriers began to fall.
Peace and Opportunity Party
The POP is a centre-right party, focused on increasing Central Economic Planning , a la Imperial Era. They had an emphasis on protecting and maintaining Rennian Culture, protecting it from the Balkavanian Culture surrouding Rennia. A major external manifestation of this belief was their refusal to speak Serolva outside of specifically required situations.
Unity Coalition
Unity was made up of Hardline Compromists, who would often literally support a literal middle point between proposals from Government & Opposition Figures. Due to their somewhat innate lack of internal policy or ideology, the found it difficult to maintain a solid support base, frequently gaining small amounts of support, but from seriously varying constituencies from Election to Election.
Rennian Labour Party
Labour (RLP) was a harder left party than KVPP, massively in support for Nationalisation of broad aspects of the economy, often emulating (although rarely explicitly associating with) Communist Ideas.
Loyalist Party
The Loyalist Party was a far-right party, strongly opposing any sort of Balkavanian Integration, and proponing Rennian Cultural Supremacist Values and Beliefs.
Qaret Party
Qaret Separatist Party. In favour of Devolution of power to Provinces, Enshrining Provincial Rights & Powers constitutionally, strongly anti-centralised Government, and strongly in favour of Natural Resources (due to the existence of Qaret's strong Natural Resource Wealth).
Cagne Duchy Restoration Party
Cagne Separatist Party. Operated in former Cagne Districts. In favour of Devolution of power to Provinces, Enshrining Provincial Rights & Powers constitutionally, strongly anti-centralised-Government, very much anti-Government Regulations due to a percieved disconnect between Cagnian Residents & Rennian Officials. Also, strongly against Ecological Protection in most forms, due to the reliance of many Cagnian Residents on Fishing (a heavily debated topic in early Rennian Politics).
Krjstendodjl Decolonisation Party
Krjstendodi Separatist Party. In Favour of further Balkavanian Integration, and Devolution of power to Provinces, Enshrining Provincial Rights & Powers constitutionally. Favoured Lowering internal trade barriers, but believed opportunity should be granted to Provinces, not to National Government. Strongly Against Central Planning.
