The Democratic Coalition (Hellenic: Δημοκρατικός Συνασπισμός), also known as the DC or the Coalition, is a center-left political party in Lihnidos. The DC is one of the two major political parties in Lihnidos. The party was formed in 1900 as a successor to the Labor Union Party.
The Democratic Coalition has been the second largest party and the main opposition party in the National Assembly since 2006. The party gained two seats in 2010 and lost seats again in the 2014 general election under Fania Zarou. The 2018 general election resulted in a hung parliament when the Conservative-National Alliance lost its majority by six seats. The Democratic Coalition gained eight seats in the 2018 general election, however it did not have enough seats to form a government following the Populist People's Party signing a confidence and supply agreement with the Conservative-National Alliance. Fania Zarou has served as the leader of the party since 2002 and served as Prime Minister from 2002 to 2006.
