The People's Alliance (Brumenese: Volksbündnis), known colloquially as the People's Party, is one of two major catch-all political parties in Brumen. Ideologically it leans towards the Centre-left of the political spectrum and upholds the principles of social democracy, social liberalism and secularism as its three core pillars. As a catch-all parth the People's Alliance is comprised of several ideological factions with the moderates, those who adhere to a balance between all three core principles of the party, being the largest faction. The moderates are followed several minor factions: the left, liberal conservatives and the socialists. The party was formed from the merger of three parties: the Social Democrats, Liberal Party & Civic Coalition in 1912. All three parties were formed in the immediate aftermath of the Second Insurrection, a period of civil war which resulted in the democratization of Brumen. The three parties were formed to provide the commonfolk a voice in the newly formed Bundeskammern, as previously only people who were of noble-descent were eligible to hold a seat in the Oberhaus, the predecessor of the Bundeskammern. While all three parties held different positions, they all supported candidates that were of non-Noble descent. Additionally while the Social Democrats, Liberals & Civics held different ideologies they were not entirely incompatible. Through a process of intense discussions & negotiations, the three parties merged to form the People's Alliance. A party that represented the voices of "the people" and upholding principles that would catch the interest of the majority of the population.

The party 's voter base is both diverse and not at the same time. It is not diverse in the sense that it draws a large number of its votes from people of non-noble descent (the commonfolk), although in the contemporary era the distinction between noble and commonfolk have largely become irrelevant except for the Monarchs of Brumen. However it is diverse in terms of the political ideals that its voter base has. Voters who come from the middle-income bracket of the socio-economic class generally tend to vote for the People's Alliance due to its support of individual liberties and autonomy and its careful balancing act between maintaining a free market economy with moderate regulation and limited intervention. On the other hand those who come from the lower-income class generally tend to vote for the People's Alliance due to the party's strong support of welfare programs such as a free universal healthcare program, free tertiary and vocational-level education at public institutions. The party is responsible for establishing the country's extensive public welfare programs that has become deeply rooted as part of the country's national pride. Both the Medicare and Brumen Certificate of Education. It has been able to attract some votes from the younger generation (those aged 18 - 24) in the 2017 election due to its relatively progressive social, economic & political positions. Even so the party faces challenges from the Republicans & The Greens, two new parties that are attracting more and more young voters.
