The Social Democratic Radical Party of Werania (Weranic: Sozialdemokratische Radikale Partei von Ostischland) commonly abbreviated to the SRPO is a centre-left political party in Werania. Founded in 1977 as a merger of the Social Democratic Party of Werania (SPO) and the Radical Party (RP) the SRPO is the country's main centre-left party supporting social democracy and social liberalism. Since 2019 it has been the main opposition party in Werania.
The SRPO was founded in 1977 with the intention to move the Weranic party system to that based around two parties with the SRPO designed to behave like a big tent party of the left, similar to its right-wing counterpart the National Consolidation Party. The SRPO led the federal government from 1983-1999 first in a coalition with the socialist Weranic Section of the Workers' International (OSAI) and then with the centrist-liberal Modern Centre Party (PMZ). During this time the SRPO was led by three Chancellors - Ludolf Ostermann (1983-1991) Wolfgang Löscher (1991-1998) and Heinrich Schuberth (1998-1999). The 1979-1999 oversaw a period of intense economic and social reform but saw the SRPO ousted from power after a sustained period of ideological fissures and internal fighting.
The SRPO remained in opposition until 2011 when the party returned to power under Ellis Koopmann who formed a coalition with the PMZ. Koopmann was ousted from office in 2014 due to poor polling results being replaced by Viktor Oberhauser. After the 2015 election which saw the government lose its majority Oberhauser subsequently formed a three-way coalition of the SRPO, PMZ and Sotirian Democratic Homeland (SDT). In 2019 the party lost power re-entering opposition.
The SRPO identifies itself as a modern social-democratic party. It currently sits in the Socialist Alternative for Euclea group in the Euclean Parliament and leading in the provincial governments of Ruttland, Bonnlitz-Ostbrücken, Kolreuth, Westbrücken and Ostry whilst participating in the Elbenweis government.
