The Provisional Parliament of Shared Worlds was established on January 14, 2013, by [[offtopic:Tony]]. He proclaims himself as President of the Supreme Council for Constitutional Reconstruction, and appoints [[offtopic:MrHuman]] as Lord President of Shared Worlds to deal with the operation and preparation work. Parties quickly sprang up, including the Labor Democrats, the Monarchist Party, the Christian Democratic Party, the People's Party, and the Statist Party. However, Deputy Leader [[offtopic:MrHuman]] of the Lab Dems split off from the party to form his own, because of his disagreement with leader [[offtopic:gwen16#Turquoise Blue]]'s promise to consider a coalition with the Monarchists. Eventually, his Workers' Party ended up with six members to the Lab Dems' one, and the two parties merged into the [[Socialist Party]]. At the same time, four parties (the Monarchist Party, the People's Party, the Imperialist Party, and the Young Hong Kongers Party) merged into the Monarchy Party, led by JMT. | The Provisional Parliament of Shared Worlds was established on January 14, 2013, by [[offtopic:Tony]].
