History

Roman Van Dyke founded the party in 1915. His dream was to have a party that supported left and right wing policies but from a moderate point of view, believing that it could bring a positive balance to the region with it's mix of economic policies, welfare programs, moderate conservatism and social justice.

The West Phoenicia Empire First Party has been in opposition now since the 2010 General National Election where they suffered a major swing against them. The 2013, 2016 and 2019 General National Elections has seen the party continue to lose seats. They cling to the role of official opposition due to the Centrist alliance that pushes up the number of seats they have in parliament.

From 1915 to 1925 the West Phoenicia Empire First Party spent there time promoting the party and working to unite other centrist parties in the region.

They had some good success at the start picking up a few seats in a few of the city-states. They were more popular with those in the cities, than country and rural voters. And membership was made up of mainly the working class.

The party had the biggest support in the city-states of Jackson, Upper and Lower West Phoenicia and Tallahassee Central. Where the party had it a first city-state branches. As of 2020 they have branches in all 53 city-states.

Roman Van Dyke who was a member for the city-state of Jackson and the first elected member of the party died of a heart attack while on the parliament floor. He was the first member of parliament to die of natural causes and still holds that record.

During the World Wars, the party supports a strong neutral stance, but we're quick to brace West Phoenician Nationalism and support the war efforts when West Phoenician interests were attacked and threatened.

After both wars West Phoenicia welcomed in an influx of immigrants. A policy that the party had strongly supported.

Party leaders have talked about going back to basic, to stop the decline in seats and memberships.
