The Radicals (Dellish: Radikaal, Martish: Radikaalid, Weranian: Radikale), officially known as the Radical Peoples' Party (Radikale Folkspartij, , Radikaalne Rahvapartei, Radikale Volkspartei), is a liberal-conservative political party in Alsland.
The party sits primarily on the centre-right but also identifies as centrist. It is a member of the Party of Euclean Conservatives and Alliance of Conservatives and Democrats for Euclea. The party primarily attracts support from the Moderate division of Alslandic society, the party's stated aim is to ensure "freedom, responsibility, community spirit, tolerance and equality of opportunity" remain a key part of Alsland's national character. The party takes a social liberal stance on social issues, it supports LGBT rights, secularism, gender equality and is outspoken on the party's environmentalist beliefs.
The Radicals are led by Mihkel and Urjo Eenpalu who both co-founded the party after Urjo was expelled from the Humanist Sotirian Union during the SYFA spying scandal. Mihkel is the current Euclean Commisioner for Climate Change and Energy whilst Urjo became the Minister for Government Accountability and transparency in Alsland. The party won 3.52% of votes at the 2022 Alslandic legislative election, under the 4% threshold to win seats, although Urjo Eenpalu was given a cabinet position in the 44th Government of Alsland. After the election it eclipsed the National Bloc as the largest moderate political party in several opinion polls.
