The Green Party is a leftist political party in Albeinland. The Green Party is considered a minor party despite having seats in both houses and councillors in local authorities, being part of the opposition in addition to be a supporter of the Social Democratic Party since 1996. The current leader of the party is Amelie Harris and its the only mainstream party that defends the introduction of a republic in Albeinland.
Founded in 1989 by dissident left-wing republicans from the Social Democratic Party and the minor Republican Party, the party had a more revolutionary and activist ideology during the leadership of Matthew Sanders. In 1996, the party underwent extensive reforms and ceased to be a socialist-revolutionary party, acting only on environmental issues and since then supported the social democrats.
Ideologically, the party aligns with left-wing politics, being socially progressive, supporting the legalization of marijuana, environmental policies and pro-LGBT policies. The party also supports the nationalization of corporations and banks, the creation of progressive taxes and severe environmental policies for mining companies. Despite having a large republican majority with also includes its leader, the party stated several times that the introduction of a republic in Albeinland will not be the first agenda to be introduced in the country.
