The Continental Party, whether in control of the legislature or not, has been the largest single party in Devahoma since the end of Kirosocialism.

It has maintained its consistently major presence in the state government in large part through its ability to mobilise voters in the state's urban centres. | The Continental Party, whether in control of the legislature or not, has been the largest single party in Devahoma since the end of Kirosocialism.
