The Satrian Section of the Workers' International (SSWI) (Samundrese: सेक्शन इंटरनेशनल का सैट्रियन कर्मी, Seknā Īntaraneshanal kā Saṭrīyan Karmī), commonly known as the Satrian Section, is a transnational political party with branches across Satria. The party claims to be the legitimate Section for Satria rather than its Ajahadyan counterpart. The SSWI's claim is recognized by the Congress of the Workers' International and the Association for International Socialism.

The SSWI originates from a 1934 split in the original Satrian Section of the Workers' International between the Ajahadyan and Arthani factions. The party was one of main forces behind the anti-colonial movement in Satria. At the onset of the Solarian War, forces allied with the party known as the National Liberation Army, fought against Etruria forces. The NLA declared the formation of the Satrian Commandery in 1944, but it wouldn't until after the Coian Evacuation that it achieved de jure independence. In 1950, Section established the Republics with a Subsection of the Satrian Section for each. The Section would rule the Commandery until its reorganisation into the United Socialist Republics of Arthasthan in 1967. The party integrated itself into the structure of the new government, and gradually subsumed many of its functions. By the 1980s, the Satrian Section and its Subsections lost their partisan role and was superseded by various formal political parties, but remained a significant part of Arthani politics. Today Section Subsection functions as part of the federal government and as the primary political forum for the socialist movement in Arthasthan. The United Front of the People political alliance uses the National Party Congress and the People's Congress to debate and decide policy.

The Section is officially organized on the basis of council democracy where each party body elects the next-highest body and the delegate model of representation where representatives must vote as their constituents wish. The party is controlled by its general party membership, who oversees to higher bodies and elects them, starting with the local party congresses. These local congresses elect regional party congresses, who in turn elects the central body of the Subsection in each Republic. In turn they elect the National Party Congress. It meets annually to determine the national direction of the socialist movement and elect high party officials. When the National Congress is not in session, daily duties and responsibilities are vested within the Secretariat, which consists of the party's leadership and other high party officials. The Secretariat functions as a collective body that governs by consensus, with the First Secretary ruling as first among equals. Although the position is primarily responsible for civilian party duties, the First Secretary is effectively the party leader and the de facto the head of state of Arthasthan. The third major party institution is the People's Congress which is an assembly of representatives of various organizations affiliated with the SSWI such as labour unions, youth organizations, cultural organizations, charities, and other groups. Its main purpose is to coordinate the policies of the national government with its member organisations and provide a political forum for the entire socialist movement. Despite the generally democratic nature of the organization's structure, scholars allege that it only serves to co-opt political movements that could oppose the party. In addition it also used for party-led mass mobilization that allows the Section create and maintain public support.

The party is committed to socialism and continues to participate in the Congress of the Workers' International. According to the party constitution, the SSWI follows the principle of People's socialism, which combines Athani culture, council socialism, left-wing nationalism, and market based ideals into an ideology that the party claims can guide the country to socialism. It importantly claims that Arthasthan has not yet achieved socialism and is in the process of building the basis for a future socialist system.
