Background
The first president, Mscoree was elected on January 8, 2014. The presidency continued, split between the Progressive Party and the Communist Party for the next nine months. The election of UglyTurtle on September 28, 2014 marked the end of the presidency. Upon his election in September 28, 2014, president election UglyTurtle proposed an abolishment of the government's democratic assemblies and presidential terms. Passing on September 30, so began the "Testudian Dictatorship", during which no new elections took place. On October 20, 2015 UglyTurtle was deposed from his position as president and dictator. Mscoree, as creator of the government, was declared the government's first monarch, and a parliamentary, constitutional monarchy was formed.

Interim Government
Following the deposition of UglyTurtle an interim government was formed of primarily democratic and republican senators. The first political party to form, the Democratic Party, accounted for the majority of the interim government's seats. The first election was scheduled for October 23, 2015, at which time Harvenard2 of the Democrats would run for the position of prime minister. At which point, having fulfilled its goal of restoring elections, the Democratic Party would be disbanded.

Social Democratic Union Party
The Social Democratic Union Party, founded in 2015, is a political party advocating for the promotion of radical and social reform, wiki wide.

The Social Democratic Union Party subscribes to the idea of "Radism", named for its founder Ratcolor, which is comprised of three major tenets: social justice, economic independence, and political sovereignty. Radism rejects the extremes of both capitalism and communism, and also aims to mediate tensions between the classes of society, with the state responsible for negotiating compromise in conflicts between managers and workers.

Our policies:
 * Weakening or abolition of wiki-specific bans and their respective legislation, for incidents of non-harmful sockpuppeting.
 * Increased enfranchisement; abolition of voting restrictions, such as the edit count, for government elections.
 * Coexistence and assimilation of "mappers"; an end to wiki raids via diplomatic solutions.
 * Lessening of punishments for crimes outside the wiki, including crimes committed on other wikis or social media.
 * Creation of clear rules for chat and other aspects of the rules, including bans and their applicable punishment.
