The modern SDU was founded in 1961, as a merger of the Sotirian democratic Sotirian Democratic Party and the conservative Democratic Union, which were considered the parties of the High and Low Churches respectively. This created a big tent party of the right, with social conservatism as its defining feature. The two traditional wings were joined by a monetarist faction in the 1980s. The SDU led a number of governments after its formation, and has consistently been considered a major party. It has led the current coalition government with the Reform Party since 2016. It is currently led by Reginald Wilton-Smyth, who originates from the Democratic Union wing of the party, but is considered to be a right-wing populist. | ||||||||

Founded in 1881, the SDCP is the oldest continuing party in Estmere. It was founded as a compromise, with the aim of representing the trade union and co-operative movements and municipal socialists. Though a not an official successor, it effectively subsumed the ILC and the CRP, with those MPs taking the SDCP whip. The circumstance of its creation made the SDCP unique from other social democratic parties, with a distinctly co-operatist ideology. The SDCP overtook the liberals to become the second major party in the aftermath of the Great War, but was overtaken by the resurgent Reform Party in the 1980s; while they have recently again overtaken Reform. The party is currently led by Anna Bailey, who is seen as a member of the soft left of the party. | ||||||||
