The United Republicans (Vierz: Vereinigte Republikaner, VR) was a big tent republican political party active in Vierzland in the 1990s and early 2000s. The party was created in 1990 by its first leader and then-Vierz chancellor, Heinrich Werner, and Wenzel Dahlke as a merger of three republican organizations: the Congress for the Republic, the Liberal Association of Vierzland, and the National Democratic Front. It was founded to participate in the 1990 elections after the abdication of emperor Victor IV. Winning a supermajority in the newly-formed National Assembly, its members were highly influential in authoring the 1992 constitution that established modern Vierzland.

Werner stepped down as party leader before the 1992 election, leaving Dahlke as party leader.
