The West Phoenician Socialist Party is considered the biggest Democratic Socialist party in the nation.
It is made up of four former smaller socialist parties who merged to create a strong foundation party to represent the workers of West Phoenicia and promote social equality for all.
The West Phoenician Socialist Party stands by the belief they are the only left wing party, citizens can trust.
History
Prior to 1980, West Phoenicia had four minor socialist political parties.
They consisted of;
- Socialist Workers Party
- Revoluntary Party
- Socialist Green Alliance
- United People's Party
All four polled well at a city-state level, gaining a handful of seats each.
On the National level they did not perform so well as each of the parties were competing against eachother for the same voters. They had to go up against the West Phoenicia Empire First Party also which was the domimant centre-left party in West Phoenicia.
