This article lists political parties in The Furbish Islands.

The Furbish Islands is a multi-party democracy and has hundreds of registered political parties, the vast majority existing only in the provincial and territorial level. On the federal and regional level, many parties align themselves with one of the "Big Three" party alliances, the Christian Democratic Union, Liberal Union, and Progressive Union, or one of the four smaller alliances, Alianza de Ley y Justicia, Democrats and Progressives of The Furbish Islands, Federation of Conservative Parties, and Union of Furbish Green Parties. Other parties with seats in the National Assembly include Alternative for The Furbish Islands, De Burgers, Moderate Movement, National Rally, New Left, Nyevestligelands Konservative Folkeparti, the satirical Partij Fête Fiesta Party, and the Pirate Party.

Organization

Furbish political parties, especially the four alliances, are more loosely organized than parties in most countries. The four alliances exist only on the national and regional levels. Other parties have separate organizations in different provinces, territories, and regions they are active in. While they are legally separate entities, they often have an organization leading all of them, which may or may not be the regional or national organization of that party.

The Furbish constitution requires that parties are "democratic organizations representing the interests of their members" and lays out how they are to be organized.

Delegates

The party delegates are the main governing body of each political party, which decide the party platform, elect the leaders, and in party alliances can approve new member parties as well as expel current members. They can also expel individuals from a party. Usually they are elected every 3 years from local branches. They meet once a year to discuss most matters, and always meet before the start of the official election campaign to elect a party leader.

Chair and executive committee

The party executive committee handles administrative tasks such as managing finances and hiring campaign staff. They are elected by the party delegates.

Party leaders

Party leaders are considered the "face" of the party and represent its views in debates and to the general public. Parties have a leader in the national government and in every federal subject it is active in, and leaders are also the party's candidate for Prime Minister or the provincial equivalent, or serve in the cabinet or shadow cabinet.

In addition to the leaders there is a number of co-leaders. Depending on the party, they might either be handpicked by the leader or elected in separate elections (or be the runners up in the leader election). In parties that have a parliamentary leader, they are always a co-leader as well.

Parliamentary leaders and whips

Unlike in many countries, the parliamentary leader in Furbish parties is a separate position from the party leader. Parliamentary leaders lead representatives of the party in the National Assembly or in other federal subject assemblies and are in charge of a party's legislative agenda. They are elected by deputies of the party, usually in either a multi-round or ranked choice system, and they appoint party whips who enforce discipline. Traditionally the parliamentary leader of the leading party in the governing coalition is referred to as the Leader of the National Assembly (or their respective assembly) and is in the cabinet, while the leader of the leading party of shadow government is referred to as the shadow leader and is in the shadow cabinet. Both organize the government's and opposition's legislative agendas respectively.

Local parties

Only parties with seats in any federal subject legislatures are listed here.

Former parties

Only parties with seats in any federal subject legislatures are listed here.

Coalitions

As legislatures on all levels of Furbish governments are elected proportionally, it is rare when a single party or party alliance wins an absolute majority, so parties have to form a coalition government. Since the Third Great War each party is associated with a color, and certain coalitions have been given nicknames by the media. The following are ones which have been in power in a federal subject government in the post-Third Great War era, organized by major parties. They are listed by names preferred by the Furbish National Broadcasting Company, with names used by other sources listed below.

Certain parties are usually grouped together due to being ideologically similar and operating in different provinces, but almost always enter coalition talks together in higher levels. For example the CDU and ALJ are both socially conservative and economically centrist, while both the CP and DPK are socially and fiscally conservative.

Christian Democratic Union and/or ALJ:

  • Pineapple coalition (CDU and/or ALJ and UFGP)    
  • Zarare coalition (CDU, ALJ, and NKF)    
  • TBD coalition (CDU, ALJ, NKF, and MM)     
  • TBD coalition (CDU and/or ALJ and NI)    

Liberal Union:

Progressive Union:

  • Atocha coalition (PU and NJCL)   
  • Aurora coalition (PU, UFGP, Burgers, MM, and Pirates)      
  • Christmas coalition (PU and Burgers)   
  • Christmas storm coalition (PU, UFGP, and MM)     or (PU, Burgers, and MM)     or (PU, UFGP, Burgers, and MM)     
    • Sometimes called the icy Christmas coalition by foreign media
  • Gryva coalition (PU and MM)   
  • Louisiana coalition (PU and NKF)   
    • Sometimes called the New Piedmont coalition
  • Strawberry coalition (PU and UFGP)   
    • Called the Sexish coalition by most other media

CDU and/or ALJ and LU:

CDU and/or ALJ and PU:

LU and PU:

  • Mavona coalition (LU and PU)   

Hypothetical coalitions

The following are hypothetical coalitions that have been discussed either by politicians or the media, and could have held a majority at some point. They may have also held majorities on the municipal level.

Christian Democratic Union and/or ALJ:

  • Carrot coalition (CDU and Burgers)   

Liberal Union:

  • Gagium coalition (LU and Pirates)   

Progressive Union:

  • Valentines coalition (PU and Pirates)   

CDU and/or ALJ and LU:

CDU and/or ALJ and PU:

AFTFI:

The following coalitions include AFTFI, which is under a cordon sanitaire by other parties.

  • Avocado coalition (AFTFI and UFGP)    or (AFTFI and Burgers)   
  • Basketball coalition (AFTFI and CDU)    or (AFTFI and ALJ)    or (AFTFI, CDU, and ALJ)    
  • Bee coalition (AFTFI and LU)   
  • Ladybug coalition (AFTFI and PU)   
  • Midnight coalition (AFTFI and NJCL)    or (AFTFI and NKF)   

Pre-Third Great War

The following are names given to past coalitions. It should be noted that these were names given by modern historians, and past party colors do not align with ones used by current parties even with a similar ideology.

Second Republic (1815-1875)
