The Republican Party (Zaihanese: 共和黨 Gònghé dǎng), sometimes referred to as the Gonghedang, is the ruling party of Zaihan. Founded during the final years of imperial Zaihan, the party was instrumental in overthrowing the monarchy and establishing the country's modern political system. It is currently the largest political party in the country and controls the legislative and executive branches of government.

The formal representative of the Republican movement that arose during the 1930s, the party was founded in 1936 amidst the chaos of the Eulhae War. Led by Ming Sui-Yen, the party actively promoted the overthrow of Emperor Xiao and the disestablishment of the Yao dynasty, despite being violently repressed by the imperial regime. The protests and other events organized by the party led to the beginning of the Republican Revolution, which successfully overthrew the emperor in 1940, pulling the country out of the Eulhae War and transforming it into a democratic republic. Ming Sui-Yen was elected Zaihan's first President in 1944 after a brief period of single-party control. Since his death in 1960, the party has held a majority in the legislature and controlled the Presidency.

Historically based off of its founding goal (to overthrow the Yao dynasty), the party strongly believes in republicanism and constitutionalism, advocating the maintaining of the democratic republican system of Zaihan. As a result of this, the party has taken a staunch anti-monarchist and anti-communist position, believing that both of those ideologies are a threat to the republic.

Since establishment, the Republican Party has maintained a rather conservative political outlook, but has shifted more towards liberal conservatism in recent years. The party's official religion is Confucianism and states that it should remain the religion of the state.
