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 8 PM EST, 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.

National Socialist People's Front
THE NATIONAL SOCIALIST PEOPLE'S FRONT CALLS YOU TO ARMS!

OUR FRAGILE GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN INFECTED BY THOSE WHO WISH TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE PEOPLE.

THEY SAY IT IS A WAR OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT. BUT TRULY, IT IS A WAR BETWEEN US ON THE BOTTOM AND THOSE ON THE TOP.

WE MUST BAND TOGETHER FOR THE PRESERVATION OF OUR CULTURE, WAYS OF LIFE, AND SOCIAL LIBERTIES, IF WE WISH TO COMBAT THOSE WHO HAVE TAKEN OVER THOSE OF LESSER CONVICTION WITH THEIR LIES.

What exactly is the "Saturn Swine"? It is an infection that has condemned lesser parties to their downfall. The Saturn Swine is a hypocritical and antagonistic ideology that preys on the weak and small of edit count, the new user, the mapper. It is the Saturn Swine that condemned our wiki to the elitist ruin it is today. You there, user, worker of the wiki, stand up for your rights and fight the swine!

Policies
 * The mappers are not intrinsically evil, merely it is the poor content that is the problem. We are not against mappers, we are against poor content. The flaw of the inferior nazi party is the false dichotomy of mapper and nazi, when in reality both are mostly shit; it should be the hard working user versus both of them.
 * The hard working user, regardless of edit count, is pure at heart. It is their dedication that creates the wiki, not the elitist upper class that rarely contributes.
 * Other parties may attempt to limit the enfranchisement of voting to silence the workers and the masses, but we promote increased enfranchisement to prevent minority rule.
 * The best defense against raids is a strong militaristic offense. We cannot expect to come to terms with a hostile organization if we are practically subjugated by them in the name of peace.
