The Amalfitan Republican Party (Amalfitan: La Partitia Respublicana Amalfitana, PR) is the major centre-right party in Amalfi. It was founded in 1976 after the disbanding of the Alliance for the Future the year before. It was the largest party in the Senate of Amalfi from the split in the Traditionalist Party, in 1995, until the 2015 general election.
The Republican Party rose to power in the aftermath of the Tagosi Crisis, and had a plurality in the Senate from the 1995 general election with a series of coalition governments with the Traditionalist Party. Its most recent government was also supported by 8 of the 11 independents in the Senate, representative of the waning support for the party after 20 years in power. Party member Luvus Tirius Coryx was the most recent Republican princeps, holding the position for 2013-2015.
