The Orange Party (Dellish: Oranjepartij, Weranian: Orange Partei, OP, Swathish: ġeolurẹdpartẹ, GP, Kirenian: Oranžerakond, OE) is an Alslandic right-wing populist political party.
The party was founded in 2021 by Elsert Wassenaar as a merger between the National Rally and United Democratic Union parties to create a unified right-wing bloc in the Folkssenaat. After an initial leadership contest between Wassenaar and Alof Oosterbaan, Oosterbaan left the party along with the party's MEPs and created Team Oosterbaan. Recently other political parties have opened up to working with the Orange Party and the party is a member of numerous local coalitions although it still sits in opposition on the national level. The party is the junior member of the governing coalition in Burnshire with the National Bloc and Garz with Progressive Alliance. Despite this several parties still refuse to cooperate with the party such as the Humanist Sotirian Union, Liveable Alsland and Green - Alternative Choice.
The Orange Party holds 0 out of Alsland's 24 seats in the Euclean Parliament and 11 in the Folkssenaat.
