The Left United for the Republic (Amathian: Ⱄⱅⰻⱀⰳⰰ Ⱆⱀⰹⱅⱐ ⱂⰵⱀⱅⱃⱆ Ⱃⰵⱂⱆⰱⰾⰹⰽⱐ, tr. Stânga Unită pentru Republică), abbreviated as the S.U.R. (Ⱄ.Ⱆ.Ⱃ.) is an Amathian left-wing populist party, created in 2015 as a coalition of left-wing and radical left members from more traditional political parties. The party began as an electoral alliance, that took part in the 2016 Amathian local elections. Following the good results it gained during the the two main political forces behind it, the Amathian Section of the Workers' International and the Democratic Equalist Convention decided to formally merge into a single political organization while maintaining their separate organizations within the framework of a single party. The Left United for the Republic was officially announced during a congress in the Amathian capital of Arciluco, and it was approved by the High Court of Justice and Cassation on 23 March 2017. The newly formed party took part in the 2018 Amathian legislative election entered the Senate, becoming an opposition party. Following the numerous scandals of the Velesan Government in 2020, the party supported both votes of no confidence against it, and joined the informal bloc of opposition parties that voted a temporary government in order to organize snap elections. Currently, the Left United for the Republic is an integral part of the Marcu Government, holding the position of Prime Minister of Amathia.
The party has since its creation been considered to be among the most leftist parties in the Senate, but has notably been more moderate than the Equalist Alternative , and more open to compromising with the establishment parties, running on an electoral platform that wishes to create a leftist majority at all levels of government in Amathia in order to ensure strong reforms while maintaining the country's democratic apparatus. While Eucloskeptic, the party notably does not fundamentally oppose further Euclean integration, but it considers the current organization of the Euclean Community to be deficient and it supports a reorganization of the EC under egalitarian and socialist ideas.
