The Solidarity Party is a political party in Urcea. It was formed from a merger of the Union for National Solidarity and Julian Party, which formed a coalition government after the 2020 Urcean elections.
In many places, Solidarity exists as a coalition umbrella of smaller, anti-centralist/anti-Urceopolitan, pro-federalist political movements, especially in the cultural periphery of Greater Canaery and Gassavelia.
History
The ties between the Union for National Solidarity and Julian Party date to the 20th century, as its predecessor, the Commonwealth Union, had often aligned with the Julian Party to form coalition governments, especially during the 80s and 90s. As the Commonwealth Union became increasingly Wittonian Socialist, monarchist tendencies and Organicist within the party grew to such an extent that the Julian Party was a natural partner in opposing the perceived liberalism of the National Pact. The ideological ties between the Union for National Solidarity became extremely prevalent during the 2018 Urcean institutional referendum, when UNS party leader Livio Iarnán became the most prominent defender of the monarchy and established close personal ties with leaders of the Julian Party, coming together to eventually form the informal Retainer Party with dissenting members of the Social Labor Party as well.
The previously established ties were vital after the 2020 Urcean elections resulted in no party having a clear majority in the Concilium Daoni, and leaders from both the Julian Party and UNS were able to form a comprehensive policy program agreement which made Iarnán Chancellor and Temporary President. At the head of a wartime government during the Final War of the Deluge, both parties grew closer and its members became essentially indistinguishable in the Concilium Daoni, eventually abolishing separate party conferences and meeting together. These ties culminated in an official "non-compete" agreement in early 2022 which pledged both parties to not run candidates against each other in any district in the 2025 Urcean elections, with Julian Party candidates given preference in the Ionian Plateau. This non-compete agreement eventually resulted in a closer agreement, with both parties establishing the "Royal Solidarity Alliance" on 30 October 2022, which pledged both parties to remain in a coalition following the 2025 Urcean elections no matter the result. This agreement was superseded in late December 2023, when both parties formally agreed to merge effective 1 January 2025. The merger would retain much of the UNS's national leadership, with Livio Iarnán remaining as party leader, but an even division of the party central committee and the Julian Party's local leaders and party infrastructure in the eastern provinces becoming the official party organs there. The party would come to encompass many members of minor parties such as the International Trade Party as well as some of the National Pact's most hawkish members in the lead up to the 2025 Urcean elections.
The Solidarity Party contested its first elections as part of the 2025 Urcean elections. It won an outright majority of seats of the Concilium Daoni, and its leader Livio Iarnán was elected Procurator, representing a sweep for the new party.
Ideology and policies
In addition to its policies, Solidarity is generally perceived to be the less "centralizing" party and has a partly rustic reputation, both from its status as being guild-oriented but also from its descent from the Ionian Plateau-based Julian Party.
Model Economy
The key socioeconomic plank of the Solidarity Party is the "Model Economy", a series of interrelated policies intended to foster the creation of an economy where ownership is distributed as broadly as possible, both generally and for specific firms and properties. The party refers to this policy as "distributism in a Urcean framework". The Model Economy entails encouraging employee ownership of firms, a shift of land and home ownership to proprietor communes, and other similar efforts to transform social views of ownership by means of economic incentives. As part of the Model Economy, taxes would be transitioned to a land value tax. In 2029, the Party's leaders in the Concilium Daoni and office of Procurator enacted the ""Pilot Economy Act", which created a four year pilot period of the economic incentives to measure their full effects on the economy.
Constitutional policy
The Solidarity Party can trace its existence to the pro-monarchy coalition assembled for the 2018 Urcean institutional referendum including the Julian Party. Accordingly, the Solidarity Party is a major proponent of the rights and privileges of the Urcean monarch, both in his person as well as his role within society.
Solidarity is considered to be the federalist and regionalist party, supporting more autonomy and policy creativity at the provincial level while having what it calls "moral limitations" on the central government, which should focus on large scale economic planning (such as the Model Economy) and ensuring the strength of guilds.
Foreign policy
The Solidarity Party views Urcea's role in the world as the champion of Catholicism abroad and the security and prominence of the Levantine Union within the Occident. Accordingly, the Party was a full proponent of Urcea's actions in Crona during The Deluge. Its predecessors, the Commonwealth Union and Union for National Solidarity, played leading roles in driving the first and second phases of the Deluge in the 2000s and 2020s, respectively.
