List Political Parties of Alternate Countries

[SandroPertini98]

Inspired by USA as France, USA as Italy:

Government Majority:
Fifty Stars Movement
Ideology: Populism, Anti-Establishment, Direct Democracy, Environmentalism, Soft Protectionism.
Base: Low-income, working class, unemployed, young voters.
Founder: Comedian Joseph James "Joe" Rogan
Leader: Acting James Hightower, current Deputy Secretary of Interior. Formerly Joshua Aaron Mandel, former Ohio Rapresentative, former Secretary of Labor and current Secretary of State.
Seats in HOR: 143/435
Story: Born to support Rogan's candidacy in occasion of 2012, it evolved in a full political party attracting people like Andrew Yang, Elon Musk and Marianne Williamson. It emerged as the largest party after 2018 elections taking advantage of disaffection toward recent leftist governments but it was short of a majority and negotiated an agreement with far-right. After their right-wing allies walked out hoping to make the coalition collapsing and win the 2020 election, the FSM reached a surprising but not totally unexpected agreement with the left, keeping their original pick as Speaker, the independent Allan Lichtman, who recently greatly improves his personal popularity due his effective managing of Covid pandemic, pushing the FSM to embrace a more traditional way to govern and toward a stable alliance with the Democratic Party.

Democratic Party:

Ideology: Social Democracy, Christian Left, Pro-Free Trade.
Base: Middle Class, high education degree, urban, pensioners voters.
Founders: San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom; Speaker of the House Joseph Biden (1997-1999, 2007-2009); Speaker of the House Richard Gephardt (1999-2001).
Leader: Timothy Kaine, current Virginia Governor.
Seats in HOR: 100/435
Story: Founded in 2007 to unite various leftist factions, after many defeats who culminated in the 2013 standoff, when the party was forced to negotiate a humiliating coalition with center-right in order to exclude the FSM, the neoliberal wing led by St Louis Mayor Jason Kander prevailed and led the party to his more resounding victory in 2014 elections. However Kander grew quickly and deeply unpopular due his perceived arrogance and his open betrayal of leftist policies: the Democrats lost their majority in 2016, after an attempt to abolish the Senate disastrously backfired, and barely form a minority majority with pieces of center-right only to be widely crushed in 2018. After the defeat and the consequent infighting, who led to two splits, the party elected the quiet Kaine to led and he negotiating the agreement with the FSM to avoid a rightwing victory.

American Dream

Ideology: Neoliberalism, Social Liberalism, Pro-Free Trade.
Base: Middle Classe, Pro-Business, moderate, centrist voters.
Founder and Leader: Jason Kander, former Speaker of the House (2014-2019), current Missouri Rapresentative.
Seats in HOR: 39/435
Story: After the disastrous 2018 election, Kander was universally blamed for the defeat and forced to resign. This led to an one year of infighting, until Kander left the party "of traitors" to found his personal political box. Shortly before the split, he pushed to ratifying the deal with the FSM, although his open and well-known hatred for the populist party, in a twist move probably motivated by the knowledge that his disapproval ratings are so high to make necessary a large alliance to counter the right and hope to be reelected. Since the split his presence in the goverment majority is reason of constant polemics with the others partners.

Freedom and Equality Party:

Ideology: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Equal Free Trade.
Base: Students, working class families, leftwing pensioners.
Founders: Vermont Rapresentative and former Secretary of Commerce Bernie Sanders, leader of Progressive-Green Party; President Pro Tempore of the Senate Richard Cordray; California Rapresentative Ro Khanna, leader of Democratic Socialist Party.
Leader: Officially Collective Leadership, as frontman Timothy Ryan, former Ohio Rapresentative, current Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Seats in HOR: 13/435
Story: With Kander increasingly unpopular, the left wing of the Democrats started to criticize him, suggesting a more leftwing program could counter his unpopularity. In response Kander started a political battle against the "traitors", culminated in their expulsion from the party. They formed numerous parties that then decided to unite in order to run in 2018 election behind a common candidate, that was individuated in Senate President and former Prosecutor Richard Cordray. The delusional results caused the party almost collapse but then the populist coalition crisis allowed it to enter in the government majority. Although they are the smallest party, their unofficial frontman Tim Ryan became one of the most famous politicians of the country for his managing of Covid pandemic.

Rightwing Opposition:

American Independent League

Ideology: States' Rights, Nationalism, Anti-Immigration, Anti-Islam, Protectionism, Far-Right Populism.
Base: Rural, low education degree, workers, farmers, low-income voters.
Founder: Alabama Rapresentative George Wallace Jr.
Leader: Steve Knight, Iowa Rapresentative and former National Homeland Secretary
Seats in HOR: 86/435
Story: Founded in early 1990s as heir of old American Independent Party, originally focused greatly on local and regionalist issues, presenting itself as Southern Party and pushing greatly for states' rights. However after Knight election as leader, the party left behind its federalist ideals and its Southern regionalist party role in favor of embracing far-right populism and American nationalism. In 2018 the AIL became the main force of the right alliance and negotiated a coalition agreement with FSM, only to leave it after one year, hoping to make it collapsing and winning triumphaly the 2020 election. But Knight was sidelined and humiliated by FSM-Dem agreement and his inability to adapt to opposition role is causing a massive drop in party's polls.

American Spirit

Ideology: Liberal Conservatorism, Christian Democracy, Pro-Free Market.
Base: Middle Class, high-income families, pro-business, low-taxes voters.
Founder and Leader: Donald John Trump Sr, former Speaker of the House (1994-1995, 2001-2007, 2009-2011).
Seats in HOR: 65/435
Story: Founded in 1994 by populism media tycoon and showman Donald Trump, the party dominate great part of the following two decades although numerous corruption, sex, tax evasion and criminal links scandals against Trump, in large part thanks to long series of low-taxes promises. In 2011 Trump was forced to resign after a prolonged shutdown in the middle of a strong fiscal and debt crisis, opening the door to a national unity majority. In 2012 his defeat was called certain but he was able to make a comeback and forcing the Democrats to negotiate with him, then experimenting a friendly collaboration with Kander Speakership. However his reputation was definitely ruined and in 2018 he was surprisingly overcame by the far-right and forced in the junior party role. With the old and weak leader who refused to leave his seat, the party quickly collapsed in a single digit in the polls.

Star and Stripes Alliance

Ideology: Conservatorism, Nationalism, Far-Right Populism, Protectionism.
Base: Rural, unemployed, low-income voters.
Founder and Leader: Sarah Palin, Alaska Rapresentative.
Seats in HOR: 49/435
Story: Founded after the national unity deal between Trump and Democrats as split from American Spirit, claiming to be the "real" right. After a long time as junior partner in the rightwing alliance, the SSA experimented a great improvement in the polls, especially after Knight's fall, and now is hoping to overcame the League and take the role of right leader.

Communist Workers' Party of Germany (Kommunistische Arbeiterpartei Deutschlands/KAPD)

In my opinion, in the first half of the twentieth century it will be more of a faction in the Communist Party, which can then stand out.

 

[Teutonic_Thrash]

In my opinion, in the first half of the twentieth century it will be more of a faction in the Communist Party, which can then stand out.

In my TL, the ultra-left International Communists don't join the KPD in the first place like OTL, so they remain separate throughout the revolution and civil war.

Kingdom of the Himalayas
(OTL Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan, Arunachal, Kumaon, Himanchal)
-In 1868 after years of isolation a political marriage between the Prince of Nepal, and Princess of Bhutan makes a union between the two countries uniting the two countries into the Kingdom of the Himalayas. The Purchase of Sikkim in 1891 from Britain allowed the nation to become contiguous. In 1895, the first constitution was written for the nation. In WW1, Himalaya sent around 80,000 troops to fight, most of which fought in Africa against the German East African troops. Around 15,000 troops took part in the Mesopotamian Campaign as well. In WW2, for two years, Himalaya sent around 25,000 Troops to North Africa to fight against the Afrika Corps, and sent pilots to fight in the Battle of Britain against Germany. When Japan entered the war, around 250,000 Himalayan troops took part in the South East Asian Front, and the Himalayan troops were credited with the successful defense of Burma and the British Invasion of Thailand and Japanese Occupied Indochina which was a success with Japan being kicked out of Indochina and Malaya by early 1945.In 1968, King Garuda II of Himalaya voluntarily gave up the last executive powers of the monarch and Himalaya remains a Constitutional Monarchy today.

Leader: K.P. Sharma Oli
The SPH Party calls for the country to look after the tenets of socialism and implement a full welfare state in the Kingdom of the Himalayas. The SPH had once been the bastion of republicanism in Himalaya, however the idea itself was very unrealistic and not popular, and eventually the SPH would drop their republican tenet and formed itself to become more like the British Labour Party.

Royalist Vanguard Party of Himalaya (RVPH) (53% popular vote) (265 seats in House of Commons) (53 seats in Federal National Assembly)
Leader: Jigme Dorji
The RVPH is the oldest party in Himalaya established in 1897. It is a monarchist, royalist, centrist, conservative-liberal and economically liberal party. They encourage the militarism of Himalaya so much so that Himalaya has earned the nickname 'The Israel of South Asia'. It is the current ruling party of Himalaya

Green Party of Himalaya (GPH) (21% popular vote) (105 seats in House of Commons)(21 seats in Federal National Assembly)
Leader: Rabindra Mishra
The GPH was formed in 1969 to fight against the global warming. It advocates for making Himalaya a home of nature. They are fairly popular and have engaged in coalition with the RVPH multiple times. They are still in coalition with RVPH currently.

Leader: Gobchang Dorji Bista

Political Parties of the Republic of Odisha

Major Parties:

Socialist National Congress
The SNC ruled Odisha for the first thirty years of its existence almost uncontested. In this period, it pursued policies not too different from what Nehru followed in neighboring India, a consensus of Soviet-style planned economics with heavy spending and maximum taxation while respecting private property, blurring the line between capitalism and socialism. Although progress in this period was glacially slow, it was a marked improvement over the previous colonial administration. Odisha being an agrarian country, state-sponsored industrialization was financed by severe price controls and taxes upon agriculture. Unfortunately, these policies led to a famine in 1966. The government was quick to react, but at this point did not have enough hard currency reserves to source imports. In the following elections, it was defeated in a landslide, slipping to third place. It remained weak for the rest of GP's long reign, re-inventing itself as a third-way social democratic organization calling for welfare and re-distribution of wealth. When the GP eventually lost its majority, SNC emerged as the main center-left party, representing the urban poor and working class.

Ganatantra Parishad/Democratic Assembly
The GP was formed by ex-princes and big landlords to represent their interests in the parliament. With support from tribal minorities loyal to their kings, the GP managed a decent third place in the parliament. It got its big break after the 1966 famine, where it was the only party that criticized the heavy agricultural taxes, winning a massive landslide in the polls next year. After winning power, it immediately ended price controls and taxes on agriculture, greatly easing the situation. Although the subsequent relief left much to be desired, relying primarily on Western aid than government spending, the GP had for all intents and purposes prevented mass starvation. Following this, it executed ambitious economic reforms, leading to rapid growth and industrialization along with other East Asian states. However, it kept considerable amount of cronyism within the system, allowing party members to become obscenely wealthy. This would eventually cost the GP its majority, forcing it to form a coalition with Swatantrata and purging corruption. Today it is the main center-right Conservative party, representing the countryside, tribal minorities and business interests.

Communist Party
The oldest party in the country, the Communists are always the bridesmaid never the bride, acting as the main opposition under both SNC's and GP's thirty year reigns. After the fall of the Soviet Union, the Communists moderated their stance to become "Democratic Socialists", while keeping their name and organisation. They have been in the government only twice, both times as junior partners to the SNC, although the coalitions never lasted longer than three years. Have large support from trade unions and labourers.

Swatantrata Party/Liberty Party
The Swatantra party represents the rapidly growing urban middle class and the new entrepreneurial class, presenting itself as the authentic Classical Liberal party. It focuses on anti-corruption, free markets and social liberalism. It was instrumental in the second round of market reforms after the Asian crisis, as it forced the GP to increase government transparency, end cronyism and further liberate the markets. It has proved to be a reliable partner to the GP, despite several differences (the SP is socially liberal, while the GP is not; the SP despises government meddling while the GP is more interventionist). The party does have a section advocating for more welfare, although even they support a free market to pay for expenses.

Minor Parties:

Hindu Mahasabha/Hindu Council
A fringe far-right Hindu-nationalist party that advocates for making Odisha a Hindu state. Has little support given the fact that religion is not a political issue in Odisha.

Jharkhand Party
A minor regional party that exists near the border with Bihar and wishes to join the Jharkhand autonomous region in that country. Complicated by the fact that Jharkhandis make up only about 40-60% of the population in the region and most prefer to vote for the GP anyways.

 

[bobby501]

Independent Kingdom of London:

Workers' Alliance:

Centre-left, moderately statist on economics and socially liberal (with a minority conservative faction). Despite the name, its support has become more middle-class in recent years, with significant declines in its East End support. Moved in a more 'modernising' direction under the 1990s leadership of Harriet Harman. Currently led by Stephen Pound.

Party of the Kingdom:

The main centre-right conservative party. Popular with white professionals and certain minority communities. The 'natural party of government', despite seemingly unfavourable demographic changes, due to its ability to constantly win key 'swing' areas such as Wandsworth and Harrow. Current leader is Greg Hands.

Radical Party:

Another party with a somewhat ironic name. Centrist, with left-leaning and right-leaning tendencies. Popular with the more liberal-minded middle-classes. Polls notably poorly with BAME voters. Often in coalition due to the Kingdom's proportionally representative electoral system. Current leader is Sarah Olney.

Socialist Party:

Despite the tamer name, the Socialist Party is much more radical than the Workers' Alliance. Strong amongst traditional working-class communities and some of the intellectual wealthy. Their main role in recent years has been to push Workers' Alliance governments to the left as a minority coalition partner. Current leader is John McDonnell.

Freedom Party:

Hard right, protectionist on economics (with a small number of Austrian School types), staunchly conservative on social issues and law-and-order. Yet to reach the 5% threshold required for seats, but they have managed to break 10% in the likes of Havering. Current leader is Andrew Rosindell.

 

[Gokbay]

Political Parties of the Russian Empire:

Major Parties:

Constitutional Democratic Party (Kadets):
Oldest independently acting political party in the Russian Empire. Founded in 1905. Is a fairly centrist party, being center left in social matters while center right in economic ones. Often seen as the natural party of government. Is a merger of the original Kadets, Progressive Party and the Union of October 17. Thought it has not always been the government. Currently the second largest party.

United Front:
A Grand Coalition of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party, Socialist-Revolutionary Party, Trudoviks and the Jewish Labor Bund. Founded in 2006. Currently leads an unstable government as the War in Congo against the Chenist (close to OTL Trotskyist ideologically, main ideology of PRC equivalent) Terror is getting quite unpopular (along with being associated with the Chenists).

Rodina:
Successor to the Union of the Russian People. The current "mainstream" right wing conservative Russian nationalist party. The smallest major party, smaller than some of the individual member parties in the United Front. Claims to be not Neo-Actionist.

Minor Parties:

Union of Russian Muslims:
A fairly old party. Quite similar to Kadets but also does Muslim minority rights advocacy. Somewhat dominated by Volga Tatars but fairly popular in Caucasia, Crimea and Kazakhstan as well. Generally an easy coalition partner for the Kadets but has histories of coalitions with Trudoviks as well.

Pan-Turkic Party-Kazakh Section:
Operates in the Autonomous Viceroyalty of Kazakhstan. Fairly successful but not exactly popular (about 30% of the votes). There are factions of it advocating independence and other factions advocate joining the Federation of Turkestan.

Pan-Turkic Party-Crimean Section:
Operates in the Crimean Guberniya. Advocates for the independence of Crimea under the Crimean Tatars. (About 40% of the population not all of which support the party). Get about 10% of the votes from Crimea.

Polish National Party:
Operates in the western ares of the Belarusian and Ukrainian Viceroyalities. Advocates joining the Kingdom of Poland. Actually not supported by the Polish government. Pretty popular with the Polish population but has no support from non-Polish population.

Ukrainian Peoples Party:
Advocates for Ukrainian independence. Generally in favor of keeping the Tsar but has republican or pro-local monarchy factions too. Somewhat successful but not expected to get independence.

Parties that are parts of the United Front:

Russian Social Democratic Labor Party:
Originally founded in 1898. Split up in 1912 into the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks. Both banned in 1928. Legalized and refounded in 1990. One of the economically farthest left parties in the front. Socially conservative by socialist standards (aka fairly centrist). One of the Big 3 in the Front. Leans full socialist.

Socialist Revolutionary Party:
The other very far left party. Also somewhat of a Green Party, being environmentalist and agrarian-socialist. Was founded in 1900. Was also banned in 1928. Similarly refounded (mostly by discontent Trudoviks) in 1990. One of the Big 3 in the Front. Leans democratic-socialist.

Trudoviks (Labor Group):
Split from the SRs in 1906. Survived the Red Scare in the 1920s and 1930s. Continued as the main center-left party of the Russian Empire during the existence of the Britannic Union (Soviets, basically). One of the Big 3 in the Front. Leans social-democrat.

Jewish Labor Bund:
Founded in 1897. An ethnic Jewish socialist party. Survived the Red Scare but a Union of the Russian People dominated government in the 50s led to the Bund removing "Labor" from the name and going non-ideological Jewish rights advocacy. Restored their old name and their socialism in the 80s (during a Trudovik-Bund coalition government). Fairly center-left .

Banned Parties:

Workers Liberation Party:
The Chenist political party. Has a paramilitary wing. Does some violence. Close to getting declared a terrorist organisation.

National Action:
Actionist (basically Fascist) party. Russian Orthodox fundamentalist. Quite anti-Semitic. Also somewhat militant but more of a gang than an actual paramilitary.

How about an independent Nevada or Nebraska?

Political Parties of the Free State of Nevada

Nevada Party: The dominant party of the country, dedicated to keeping the roulette wheels rolling and the money flowing by any means possible. Some have alleged that these means include paying off or otherwise removing people who get in the way of the business interests that run the state.

Nevada Democratic Party: Predominantly Mormon in membership, this party emphasizes good government and soft social conservativism. They are quite popular in the northern part of the state, but gerrymandering prevents them from ever taking a legislative majority.

Independent Nevadan Party: A right-wing, explicitly Christian party dedicated to small government and reestablishing the state along biblical principals. As these principals would eliminate a substantial chunk of the state's economy, the INP is wildly unpopular. Their only chance at electoral success is an alliance with the NDP, but they consider Mormons heretics, so that is unlikely to ever happen, ensuring the Nevada Party's continued hold on power.

Worker's Party of Nevada: This party is quite popular lower classes, including both the tourism-industry workers of the Las Vegas area and the miners and manufacturing workers of the state's north. The Nevada Party tends to portray them as Communists, although their actual platform is closer to the social democratic parties of Europe and the Western Seaboard.

Raza Unida Party of Nevada: A leftist party focused on Latino interests. Often accused of siphoning votes from the Worker's party, they have been successful in establishing bilingual education programs and preventing the immigration restrictions championed by the INP.

Federal Political Parties of Canada (of the TheMann Universe)
(Leaders accurate as of September 9, 2020)

Liberal Party of Canada
Leader: Justin Trudeau (MP for Papineau, Quebec)
Politica
Policy Views: The Liberal Party stakes out the middle-left of the Canadian political spectrum, much more pro-business than the Social Democratic-leaning Progressive Party, proudly left-wing on social issues and has the largest parliamentary contingent among Canada's First Nations and Quebecois populations and thus tends to be the most supportive of their positions. The government for much of Canada's history until the 1970s, the party has been locked in a struggle with the Conservative and Progressive parties for the leadership of the Canadian government since the three-party system of Canada's major parties was broken by the Reform Party in 1993 and the Green Party four years later, and the Liberals tend to be ones who make conciliatory positions. Internationalist in nature in terms of foreign policy and tending to the more soft-diplomatic methods of investment and diplomacy.

Conservative Party of Canada
Leader: Peter MacKay (MP for Bedford-North Halifax, Nova Scotia)
Policy Views: The center-right of the Canadian political spectrum, the Conservative Party of Canada has been the Yin to the Liberals' Yang for much of their history, only to finally crest the hump and become a regular government party, holding the leadership in Canada's government for 19 years straight between 1974 and 1993 after struggling to be anywhere near power since the Great Depression, since then has been a proud supporter of welfare capitalism policies, though is much more pro-market and pro-defense than the Liberals or Progressives. On most social issues - reproductive rights, the LGBT community, Native Canadian rights - there is little between the two largest parties, though the Conservatives tend to take a greater interest in relations with the United States, as opposed to the Liberals, who tend to be closer to the Commonwealth.

Progressive Party of Canada
Leader: Thomas Mulcair (Senator for Quebec, Montreal Region)
Policy Views: The left side of Canada's political world since the 1920s, the Progressive Party of Canada remains true to those roots, proud believers in social democratic policies including broader social services and support for labour unions, the Progressive Party is probably the loudest when it comes to left-leaning social policies, including being loudly pro-choice, pro-LGBT rights, against racism in any form (to be fair all Canadian political parties are loudly against bigotry) and proudly internationalist in terms of global cooperation agreements, as well as having by some margin the largest support among African-descent and Caribbean-descent Canadians, with nearly half of the Progressives' parliamentary caucus being made up of members from Canada's Caribbean provinces. The Progressives have a history of working with the Liberals that goes back to the 1930s, and when pushed tend to side with the Liberals far more than the Conservatives, but they hold the view that they themselves are worthy of governing Canada, and in the periods they were the government of Canada in the 1930s and 1990s their governments were indeed very well-run, making the claim very plausible.

Reform Party of Canada
Leader: Stephen Harper (MP for Calgary Mount Royal, Alberta)
Policy Views: Born out of a sense of alienation between the prairie provinces and Ottawa in the 1980s, the Reform Party is the unashamed right wing of Canada's political spectrum, taking much more right-wing policy positions than the Conservatives and having a mild level of animosity between them, the Reform Party has held in its view that Canada's 1972 Constitution was skewed too much towards federal power authority and advocates a much more decentralized government, with the government's economic policies being much less interventionist than is the Canadian norm. The Reform Party's support is overwhelmingly in the Prairie Provinces, British Columbia and northern Ontario, though in recent times much of the party's previous reputation for social conservatism has been shed, primarily as much of the party's leadership believes it is an almost-sure vote loser in Ontario, Quebec and metropolitan areas of British Columbia and Alberta that the party has long believed are its route to an eventual government.

Green Party of Canada
Leader: David Miller (MP for Beaches-East York, Ontario)
Policy Views: The Green Party of Canada came onto Canada's political scene in the 1960s more than anything as a single-issue party focusing on environmental causes and issues, but since the 1980s had grown dramatically to become a legitimate kingmaker in Canada's political scene, with its first members becoming part of Canada's government in 1997. Another party that is unashamedly left-leaning in its economic policy views, the Green Party nonetheless isn't quite as forceful as the frequently-militant Progressives on many social issues and is a greater supporter of many of Canada's civic services, particularly the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The Green Party first gained positions in parliament from British Columbia, the Bahamas and some seats in Ontario, Jamaica and Trinidad, but in modern times has proven themselves capable of winning seats just about anywhere, and they are proud of this and their success in many governments in pushing for their beliefs.

 

[Whiteshore]

Chenist (close to OTL Trotskyist ideologically, main ideology of PRC equivalent)

Advocated by Chen Duxiu, I assume.

 

[Gokbay]

Advocated by Chen Duxiu, I assume.

Indeed. Gets the naming rights ITTL because there is no Russian Revolution while Chen Duxui gets to be the Mao equivalent. As Mao dies in the Warlord Period before taking power.
It is probably mentioned ITTL that Trotsky influenced Chen but he (Trotsky) is much less famous in the world stage than Chen.
