The Communist Party of Hytekia (Hytek: Hitekijas Komunistiskā Partija), also abbreviated to HKP is the founding and ruling party in the People's Republic of Hytekia. It is the sole governing party in Hytekia, permitting a few other parties (all left-wing and of similar political stances) to run in National Assembly elections, although the party maintains a large majority in every election. Founded in 1913 as the Communist Party of Hytekojuznia by Artjoms Viliks and Roms Talbergs, it was also the dominant party in the People's State of Hytekojuznia, after its split after the Hytekojuznik Civil War in 1989, it split into the communist parties of Hytekia and Juznia, with the Juznik wing of the party becoming relatively obsolete while the Hytek wing retained power in the new state. The party also directly controls the Hytek People's Armed Forces.
