This article lists political factions in Latium. Unofficial factions in the Senate predate any formalization of the modern factional system, and have existed in various forms since the earliest days of the assembly. The formalization of factions first appeared in the mid-19th century with the appearance of the Populares in 1833. Initially, the Populares favored the common people and better represented their interests in the Senate. By 1842, the Populares came to favor Imperial interests and the reforms of Emperor Theophylactus I, in 1848, and have since become the center-right senate faction. Since the 1950s, similar electoral factions have formed in elected diocesan or overseas assemblies.

Factions with Senate representation
According to Senate rules, and later Imperial Edict, modern political parties are prohibited from the Senate and political offices in Latium. Representation in the senate is based upon the theory of virtual representation, and the means of voting necessitates the existence of factions in order for elections to be fulfilled. The Sacred Assembly is responsible for monitoring senate elections, and also sanctioning official senate factions. To qualify as a faction, a group of citizens must present an senatorial list of no fewer than 350 eligible citizens, 100,000 verified signatures supporting the faction, pay a filing fee of $500,000, a distinct leadership, and 20 comital rank sponsors. Upon submission of all requirements, the Imperial Election Committee vets all senatorial lists and faction members. Individuals on senatorial lists are heavily scrutinized before a faction is officially sanctioned. Senate factions are prohibited from sponsoring individuals running for lower or local office and may face heavy penalties for doing so, possibly including loss of imperial approval as a faction and potential removal of all senators from said faction.
The Populares are the oldest extant senate faction, and are the only faction to predate the electoral process; it has participated in every election since 1866. Omnes is the second oldest faction, and currently the second largest, while Aliis is the most recently established faction, first earning faction status in 2017. Independent senators are rare due to electoral requirements, and are most often individuals appointed by the Emperor whose seats are not bound by election. These independent senators are often granted special dispensation to forgo joining a faction, which are collectively referred to as Independentes. A fifth faction, Provincialis, sporadically exists in the Senate due to its inability to submit a complete senatorial list or not receiving enough votes.
