Urcean electoral politics have largely been dominated by successive pairs of major political parties since shortly after the First Great War, succeeding a century of uncontested domination by the National Pact, broadly considered the first organized political party in Urcean history. Urcea has a tradition of smaller regional third parties (such as the Julian Party) as well as typically having a small socialist or left-wing party which wins third or fourth place in most Concilium Daoni elections. The National Pact has been opposed by a succession of related parties; the Commonwealth Union, the Union for National Solidarity, and the modern Solidarity Party, each of which descended from the preceding political party representing a reformist, integralist perspective contrary to the crown liberal National Pact. Both major party structures have largely retained a similar ideology since their foundation, though approaches and perspectives on individual issues have varied broadly throughout their histories.
