Minor Kiravian Political Parties

This article discusses select Kiravian political parties that are neither represented in the Federal Stanora, nor considered serious contenders for provincial legislative leadership or province-wide offices. These parties may have limited representation in provincial legislatures or be represented at the local (countyship and municipal) level only, while others hold no public offices at all. Several have fallen into decline after significant political success in the past, while a few function primarily as advocacy groups and may not actively contest elections.

Monarchist Party

Congress of Issyria	4 / 86
Andrēdan Commons	2 / 76

The Monarchist Party (Kiravic: Xūroārkax Plaiduv) is a party uniting advocates for the abolition of the Republic and a return to a monarchial system of government. Though it operates as a single party for electoral and public relations purposes, the Monarchist Party is internally divided into a number of different factions that disagree on what a Kiravian monarchy would look like in practice. One of the main lines of division (and a major obstacle for the Monarchists in promoting their agenda) is a lack of consensus on who would accede to a putative Kiravian throne. The House of Arenian, descendants of the last Coscivian Emperor, was historically considered the natural choice, though most of its members have disavowed monarchial rule. Other factions support an Arenian cadet branch, one of the other Eight Iatic Lineages, personal union with Livensóla, a Mandirid lineage (descendants of the philosopher Shafto), House MacRae of Fiannria, or the prominent Férapelan family. The Monarchist Party rejects both absolute monarchism (which has had a rather minor presence in Coscivian history) and figurehead constitutional monarchism, preferring a constitutionally-bound political order whereīn the monarch would act as head of the executive branch and wield substantial political power. Most within the party favour a male-preferential system of agnatic primogeniture, while a significant minority wish to revive the Coscivian and Celtic traditions of tanistry and elective monarchy. Monarchist Party members also disagree on whether the Kiravian federal subjects should be reformed into subnational monarchies in vassalage to the federal monarchy, principalities-electorate with the power to choose the federal monarch, dominions with viceroys replacing state governors, or kingdoms in personal union. The Party's non-constitutional platform is broadly conservative and traditionalist, embracing Coscivian cultural conservatism, national sovereigntism, distributism, and agrarianism. Monarchism is strongest in South Kirav, where the influence of Coscivian Manorialism on culture and political institutions has been more pervasive and enduring than in other parts of the Federacy. However, even there its influence is minor. A handful of Monarchists have been elected to the state legislatures of Issyria and Andrēdan over the years, and a somewhat larger number have been elected to countyship and municipal offices. Many successful Monarchist candidates have been defectors from the ruling Southern Green-Right parties who were defeated in their original parties' primaries.

Kiro-Hekuvian Party

Kiro-Hekuvian Party Kiro-Hekuviax Plaiduv
Ideology	IDEC membership Capitalism National Sovereigntism
Federal Stanora	0 / 545

The Kiro-Hekuvian Party is a single-issue party advocating a strong alliance between the Federacy and Heku. It was founded in early 21207 to advocate for Kiravian observer membership in the Hekuvian-led IDEC, and is funded primarily by the Society for Capitalist Preservation. It presents itself as an alternative to the Levantian Union Party, opposing supranationalism and continental integration while still supporting extensive international commerce, international military coōperation, and a more open attitude toward Latin-speaking immigrants and expatriates. Most current party members are naturalised citizens of Hekuvian origin or Coscivian-Kiravians of partial Hekuvian descent, and membership is concentrated in the Valēka metropolitan area. Its domestic platform is based on laissez-faire capitalism and pro-business liberal conservatism. It advocates the elimination of English instruction from school curricula and its replacement by Latin as the main foreign language taught in schools. The party is headquartered on Ansalón Island, Valēka, Kaviska, and employs agents and activists in Kartika. It intends to contest the 21208 House of Delegates election in Kaviska and field candidates for the 21209 state elections in Kaviska and federal elections in Kaviska, Niyaska, and Cascada.

Kiravian Women's Party

Kiravian Women's Party Plaiduv Kiravix Tová
Ideology	Women's interests Anti-communism
Affiliation	National Reunification Front
Remnant Stanora	6 / 373

The Kiravian Women's Party was established in the Kiravian Remnant in [YEAR] by members of the women's auxilliary to the ruling Renaissance Party in order to ensure female representation in the National Reunification Front when the latter organisation was formed as part of the Remnant's transition from emergency rule to the single-party state.

The party's mother chapter and national committee are registered to a post office box in Sirana.

Bath Salts Party

Bath Salts Party Plaiduv Sulyūkeśnúl
Ideology	Drug reform Cultural liberalism
Slogan	Smoke salts erryday
Argévian Assembly	8 / 230

The Bath Salts Party is a single-issue party that opposes initiatives to ban bath salts and related grey-market recreational substances marketed as nonconsumable bath salts and fertilisers. True to form, the party's platform is also used as a moderate cover to advocate for the legalisation of popular rave drugs, especially ketamines, ecstacy, and alkyl nitrates. The party is headquartered in Pontevedra, Argévia and is most active on the West Coast, where recreational drug use is most widespread and federal drug laws are most poorly-enforced. The party's official platform concerns only drug reform and the adoption of proportional representation in state and federal legislatures, but BSP candidates have often spoken in favour of other culturally libertarian positions, such as support for consensual cannibalism, leniency in cases of nonconsensual cannibalism resulting from bath salt consumption, legalisation of prostitution, and the abolition of state and Urom monopolies in the gambling industry. The BSP mostly fields candidates to local offices in localities where ordinances to prohibit or circumscribe the sale or use of bath salts have been proposed. It also campaigns for 'no' votes in local plebiscites on the same issue and conducts pro-drug public advocacy. It is headquartered in Pontevedra and holds eight seats in the Public Assembly, the purely deliberative lower house of the Argévian legislature. BSP members held 26 local offices on the West Coast and 2 elsewhere as of 21206. It has unsuccessfully applied to join the Direct Democratic Front and Liberty Group caucus.

The Civilian Ecological Party is a small, liberal-democratic political party active in several Northeastern states. Emerging as a splinter group from the implosion of the once formidable Kiravian Ecological Party in the 21180s, the CEP (then the Continuing Ecological Party) brought together six highly-active KEP organising committees based mostly in college towns in Arkvera and Fariva. Initially focused on environmental issues, the party's civil liberties and public accountability work would push it toward a greater emphasis on government transparency, freedom of information, and criticism of the Kiravian military, intelligence, and law-enforcement apparatus.

According to the 21204 edition of its manifesto, the Civilian Ecological Party does not seek to form or join governing coalitions for the purpose of implementing a policy programme, and instead sees its role in state and local legislative bodies as vigorously exercising those bodies supervisory and investigative powers, using procedural motions to obstruct unjust laws, and using the legislative floor as a platform to call attention to facts suppressed by the state and the establishment media.

Although nonsectarian, the CEP has strong but informal links with the Bahá'í Faith, which enjoyed a surge in popularity in Kiravia around the same time the CEP was formed. 27% of dues-paying members of the CEP's Arkvera branch are Bahá'ís, who account for only 2.2% of the state's population.

Might actually give these guys some state-level testimonial representation.

The CEP is a member of the Emerging Democracy Conference, formerly associated with the defunct Direct Democratic Front and now associated with the Kiravian Free Alliance. It is also a member of the Open Kiravian Conference.

Antidecimal Party

Kaviska Railways Board	2 / 5
Kastera Rail Board	1 / 7

The Antidecimal Party is a single-issue party dedicated to preserving use of the vigesimal system of numerals used in most Cosco-Adratic and Celtic languages, as well as opposing proposals for currency decimalisation and adoption of the metric system in Kiravia. Its members view the abandonment of vigesimal Iatic numerals and Coscivian customary weights and measures as forsaking and Kiravian identity the millennia-old mathematical heritage of Coscivian civilisation in the name of "compatibility" and "convenience". Though mainly focused on opposing proposals for decimalisation of the saar and metrication, the Antidecimal Party has taken up the cause of defending Kiravian traditions with regard to various other weights, measures, and technical standards. It has called for the country to abandon 24-hour time and return to the Coscivian marr system, ban Arabic numerals from Kiravian military vehicles and public school textbooks, and prohibit the construction of railroads using any gauge other than the 5'3" Kiravian standard. Though the party does contest elections, mostly in Kaviska State where it is headquartered, Etivéra, Kastera, Hiterna, and Devahoma, it allocates very little of its budget to electoral campaigns, prioritising lobbying, issues activism, and organisational development. The party hopes to have chapters in all mainland Kiravian states, Koskenkorva, Æonara, and the Sydona Islands within the next five years. The Anti-Decimal Party has applied for consultative status with the Conservatives and Reformists Caucus.

Landlords' Party

Headquarters	Halixatren, Ventarya
Platform	Landlord rights Anti-communism factions: Timocracy Neo-manorialism
Slogan	Landlord Rights are Human Rights Rent is Due!
Federal Caucus	Authentic Historical Caucus (associate)
Electoral Symbol
County Commissioners (Ventarya)	12 / 420
House of Burgesses	2 / 191

The Landlords' Party is a political party operating mainly in Ventarya and Kaviska that represents the interests of Landlords and other People of Land (PoL). Its legislative agenda touches on a number of related issues including property tax, tenancy law, land use and development regulations, building codes, and upholding civil liberties and nondiscrimination protections for people of land.

The Landlords' Party has its roots in the networks of landlord militias that were formed during the Colour Wars to protect landowning families and their property from tenant rebellions and depredation and collateral damage by combatants. The party was organised quickly after the fall of Kirosocialism in order to advocate for the return of land that had been expropriated under the Kirosocialist régime to its rightful ownership, and to lobby for privatisation of the extensive public housing developments built during the Kiravian Union.

The Party has ties to a number of influential trade industry groups in real estate and property management, as well as to local landlords' associations. Its electoral efforts have been focused on contesting local elections in Ventarya and Kaviska, and on endorsing candidates for statewide offices in Kaviska via electoral fusion. It is able to hold down as many as three seats in the Ventarya Burgesses, all of them representing pocket boroughs whose electorates are controlled by local landlords that own most of the constituencies' land.

Font Union Party

Ideology	Font Unionism Typography

The Font Union Party is (ostensibly) the Kiravian counterpart of Font Unionist party of Paulastra. Both parties were founded in support of the supranational Font Union that existed between Palmeria and Sawra prior to the annexation of the latter by the former. However, unlike its Paulastrani counterpart, the Kiravian FUP has never sought Kiravian admission to the Font Union, and indeed, may not even understand what the Font Union is. In 21205, the FUP elected a member to the village council of Butvuknoér, Kensonia, who told the press upon his victory, "Yeah, I support fonts. Especially Wingdings! It's my favourite!"

Coscivian Parsist Party

The Coscivian Parsist Party is a minor organic-socialist party active in the state of Elegia. Formerly more prominent, the Coscivian Parsist Party was one of the first organised electoral expressions of Urcean-inspired organic socialism in Kiravia, led by its founder Terentius F.E. Iryanostran. Following an internal row between Iryanostran's son Lavrentius and Nikobar Kelendon which preciptitated a schism forming the Elegian Labour Party and the nationwide Labour Front of Kirav, the Iryanostan-led rump faction of the CPP has declined into a locally-based minor party, with its influence confined to its founding family's home base of northeastern Elegia.

Communist parties

With the far-left political space traditionally dominated by the Kirosocialist Party and its successor organisations (which have included communist elements), as well as the general decline in support for such a platform in the post-Kirsok era, orthodox communist parties are a minor presence in Kiravian politics and an electoral non-factor outside of Sydona and a few select localities in Great Kirav. There are two "major" orthodox communist parties described below that exist outside of the left-wing Popular Democratic Front, both of which trace their lineage to the minority faction of the original Communist Party of Kiravia that rejected merging into the Kirosocialist Party.

CPKF

Communist Party of the Kiravian Federacy Kommūnirisēx Plaiduv Kiravix Rektārká
Ideology	Communism Marxism-Devinism
Dēvlinsar City Commission	2 / 7

The Communist Party of the Kiravian Federacy is the smaller of the two parties in terms of membership, but has greater organisational capacity and a larger electoral footprint than the CPGK. The CPKF still enjoys some support at the ballot box in some economically distressed industrial and mining communities in Second Kirav. It is the successor to the Communist Party of the Kiravian Union, the faction of the Communist Party of Kiravia that refused to join the Kirosocialist Party but ultimately agreed to become a junior partner in the Kirsok-led People's Front after the establishment of single-party rule. Today, the CPKF is regarded as the more pragmatic of the two communist parties, and continues to participate in local coalitions and joint electoral lists with PDF member parties.

CPGK

Communist Party of Great Kirav Kommūnirisēx Plaiduv Ambrix Kiravsk
Ideology	Communism Marxism-Devinism

The Communist Party of Great Kirav is the more radical of the two parties, and believed to be much larger in terms of membership (though it does not disclose membership statistics). It was formed by Communist Party of Kiravia members who rejected absorption into the Kirosocialist Party and subsequently refused to join the People's Front, resulting in its proscription by the Kiravian Union. The party persisted as a clandestine movement on the Mainland and was responsible for much of the left-wing opposition to the government circulated in the underground press. The CPGK has always been staunchly supportive of the Carnish communist state, which may have sheltered its leaders and operatives fleeing persecution in Kiravia. For a time, CPGK cells also existed in the Kiravian Remnant, where it was similarly banned, but most either disbanded or gradually abandoned Marxism-Devinism for left communism. One notable cell, the self-styled Novisar Soviet, flipped to anti-communism and joined the Renaissance Party.

The CPGK was legalised after the Restoration and reiterated its denunciation of the Socialist Party/People's Alliance/Popular Democratic Front and CPKF. Despite some limited electoral success in the first two post-Restoration elections with support from socialist voters disillusioned with Kirsok, the CPGK failed to grow its base beyond this segment, which itself was eroded by the superior People's Alliance/CPKF campaign machines. Like other small nationwide parties, the CPGK was hit hard by the stringent regulatory and financial restrictions of the [YEAR] Anti-Party Law, which forced most of its provincial chapters to fold. Today, the CPGK continues to stand for elections in a few large industrial states, but mainly concentrates on extra-governmental activism and support for the labour movement.

The Party for the Prohibition of Alcohol, also known as the Prohibition Party of the Kiravian Federacy, is an illegal political party designated as a domestic terrorist group by the Kiravian Security Executive. It is a single-issue party whose ultimate goal is the complete prohibition of alcohol in the Kiravian Federacy and all places subject to its jurisdiction. The party platform calls for the abolition of the alcoholic beverage industry and of drinking as a social and cultural institution. It seeks an amendment to the Fundamental Statute of the Kiravian Federacy that would criminalise the production, possession, sale, transportation, distribution, and consumption of any potable ethanol solution through the Federacy, its external territories, and its territorial waters and airspace. It claims that alcohol is the root cause of many social ills, including traffic accidents, spousal abuse, public urination, and the late-night texting of exes; and that it arrests Kiravian economic growth by impairing worker productivity, promoting absenteeism and missed deadlines, and dramatically reducing overall efficiency. The party's armed wing, the Sober State of Kirav and the Isles (SSKI), has conducted numerous terrorist attacks targeting breweries, distilleries, pubs, and liquor stores, resulting in a death toll of 88 civilians to date. The SSKI are believed to operate as a network of independent cells under the direction of the party's Direct Action Committee. The Domestic Security Agency suspects that the SSKI may be partially financed by foreign alcohol conglomerates who hire it to attack their Kiravian competitors' operations in order to gain an edge in the global market.
