The United Fatherland Party "Zabowiazanie", (tr. "Commitment"), is a right-wing political party in West Miersa. it has been the sole ruling political party in the country since it's foundation by President Kazimierz Glogowski in 1989. It is currently led by President Jakub Lewkowicz and Premier Elena Jachowski.
It was founded by Glogowski in 1989 with the intentions of changing his policies and solidifying his rule in the country. His isolationist and ethnic nationalist policies of the 1980s had become unpopular, Glogowski decided to reform his political platform with the creation of the party.
Over time the party solidified it's hold on West Miersa, Glogowski would be succeeded by Tomasz Kopernik, who would begin to further reopen West Miersa to the world but also began to suppress opposition. Kopernik would be succeeded by Jakub Lewkowicz, he would further suppress opposition parties during his rule and begun to move close towards Soravia.
History
Foundation and Glogowski leadership
After the Miersan War, West Miersa had been struck economically and mentally. The country would then fall into another war, the Lemovician War, in 1982, with the region eventually being annexed by Champania in 1985. Kazimierz Glogowski was made President of West Miersa in 1982 with promises and reforms and reconstruction. The Lemovician War had hurt his reputation early and the defeat by Champanian forces also hurt the public's trust in him. His policy of isolationism and anti-Soravianism had become unpopular by the late 1980s.
By 1989 the people had become dissatisfied with much of Glogowski's policies, but he was able to win reelection in 1987. His policies in 1988 had become less nationalistic and more economy focused.
In 1989 he would found Zabowiazanie (tr. Committment), a right-wing nationalist political party that would transform the political scene in West Miersa. The party's platform was much different than Glogowski's earlier isolationist and ethnic nationalist policies as an independent. Many of this old allies were eventually thrown out of their offices or arrested by the government. He would surround himself with Soraviophiles and many former Republika party members. This shift in stance became known as "Glogowski's Roller-Coaster".
During Glogowski's leadership the party would dominate the country's politics, taking over the role the Republika party had left off with. Glogowski would open the country to Soravia in the 1990s and joined Samorspi. The 1990s and early 2000s saw economic progress beginning to take shape. The party would adopt the "three fingers up" symbol, which is supposed to represent Saint Michael, the patron saint of Miersa.
Kopernik leadership
Tomasz Kopernik would take over in 2004, he would begin a policy of suppressing opposition parties. He would ban smaller left-wing parties from running in certain elections in certain hotly-contested regions. In 2005 economic recession would hit West Miersa and the leadership of Zabowiazanie would take control of many sectors of the economy to prevent collapse. This policy would never be undone, as many sectors of the West Miersan economy continue to be controlled by the government.
In 2006 an uprising by Savader and Lemovician rebels would rise up, the government of Kopernik would recruit paramilitaries and militias. The government of Kopernik would greatly revamp and upscale the party's armed winged, Miersan Honour. They would be used to crush dissent and indimidate. In 2014 he would resign from his role of party leader and was succeeded by Jakub Lewkowicz.
Lewkowicz and Jachowski leadership
In response to the election of Lewkowicz, protests erupted across West Miersa, known as the Gwiazdzy Protests, during this time paramilitary and militia forces were deployed, including Zabowiazanie's Miersan Honour forces. Another uprising by Savader and Lemovician groups would occur during his tenure, this was also crushed by the government forces.
Lewkowicz would attempt to reopen relations with East Euclean countries such as Werania and Estmere, but to little avail. During his rule economic output and success in West Miersa would go up, and his rule became more popular over time.
In 2022 Lewkowicz would resign from his role as party leader and instead continue to rule the country as President. He would appoint Elena Jachowski to the position of party leader. She would attempt to modernise and digitalise the party. Today Zabowiazanie is considered a authoritarian party that uses any means to continue to rule.
