List of Political Parties in the Grand Union (Principia Moderni III Map Game)

This Page lists all the political Parties in the Grand Union, their years of formation, and registration with the Central Party Registry of the Grand Union, headquarterd in Pskov and with offices in each major city and capital. Political Parties have certain privilleges over regular political factions, such as being allowed an officialy appointed party whip, and presidence in speaking order, regardless if the faction is larger in number. Faction members, unlike Party members, are also treated as Independant members during roll call, and are not guaranteed "bloc" seating (i.e. if a member crosses the floor over to another faction, he is not guaranteed the right to change his seat, however party members are guaranteed the right to sit with their caucus(or close to it if the number of members necessitates crossing into the "island"), and therefore if a member crosses the floor to anothe party, they have the right to sit with their new caucus members, and the seating arrangements will be ajusted accordingly.
