The Union State of Pulacan is a multi-party democracy, with numerous regional parties holding tribal, class, and ideological loyalty. Though these parties are typically most active in the national-level Supreme Colloquy, some are active within the internal politics of the subnational governments in altepemeh (municipalities) and tlatocayoteh (departments). The dominant party in the House of Delegates, the Assembly's lower house, elects a General Secretary, who is then approved by the President to act as head of government and to form a cabinet. The General Secretary is typically the leader or chief spokesman of the largest party in government.

Name Logo Founded Ideology Leader Delegates Political position Description
Nguzo Gear-icon-blue-transparent-background.png 1966 Kabaya'an
Progressivism
Factions:
Social democracy
Moctezuma Tshireletso*
96 / 327
Center-left to left-wing Formed in the south of Pulacan, Nguzo finds most of its guaranteed loyalty around Cuicatepec and among the Ngwato people. Formed from a merger of other southern center-left progressive parties, Nguzo stands to this day as the largest of Pulatec parties by active membership. Though made of largely autonomous department-level factions, the Nguzo party base is broadly united around a progressive yet more international-business-friendly vision for Calpollism, Pulacan's economic system. Nguzo is also the mainstream party most strongly advocating for Kabaya'an, or the ideology of Ozerosi integration and close cooperation.

Union State primacy
Factions:
Soft anti-Kabaya'anism
Cozauist democracy
Iuitl Mogorosi
78 / 327
Center-left to left-wing Named for the ShiMzanzi word for "Sun," the Juwa party is the largest party advocating stronger ties with Zacapican taking primacy over the AON and Pulau Keramat. Founded as a community-focused, social-democratic party for the working class, the party now serves as a disparate collection of factions and local political machines. Their most recent manifesto under the faction of Iuitl Mogorosi, "Governing for the People through Divine Fire and Water," contains the party's most explicit use of Cozauist religious imagery in outlining its platform, influenced by its frequent partner in the Moral Government Movement.

Factions:
Kabaya'an
anti-Kabaya'anism
Tepiltzin Tecuanhuehue
58 / 327
Center-right Formed from a merger of multiple conservative parties, the PAR serves as the vanguard for old-style conservatism in Pulacan. It finds most of its supporters in those who reject the socialistic bent of the Juwa Party, but reject the progressive social policies of Nguzo.
New Progressive Front Unity Party of America Symbol.png 1977 Technocratic socialism
Directorial socialism
Kabaya'an
Megawati Sudionoputri
27 / 327
Left-wing NPF began as a coalition appealing to voters in the north, as well as former AON guest workers in Pulau Keramat and Pulaui immigrants who wish to institute elements of technocracy and technocratic socialism in Pulacan. This group garners most of the pro-Kabaya'an vote in northern Pulacan. The NPF has, since its inception, acted as the de facto mainstream arm of the Tuganani advocacy movement.
Tshiamiso Flag of the Botswana Democratic Party.svg 1993 Anti-corruption
Criminal justice reform
Populism
Keorapetse Koma
Kgalemang Boko Osupile
19 / 327
Single-issue Founded by Keorapetse Koma and celebrity actor Kgalemang Boko Osupile (also known as KBO) after the 1992 death of Boko's son Shango in police custody, Tshiamiso is the oldest single-issue party in Pulacan. The name, meaning "justice" in Setswana, refers to the group's goal to reform Pulatec law enforcement, improve government transparency, and root out corruption. The party reached its zenith of influence after the 1997 election, when its delegates were instrumental in pushing through a sweeping series of criminal justice reform bills later known as the Koma Laws. In recent years, Tshiamiso delegates have mainly, but not entirely, attached themselves to Nguzo policies, and their independent influence has slowly waned despite retaining a number of Delegate seats. Tshiamiso continues to advocate for anti-corruption measures and criminal justice reform.
Moral Government Movement 1938 Cozauist democracy Pantla Tlale
18 / 327
Center Founded as the Coalition of Community Aid Societies, the modern political advocacy wing of the Huetecpilcalyotl temple school of Tlaloc Cozauism, the Movement (commonly known in Nahuatl as X and SePala as Y) exists as the most explicitly-religious political party to win votes in Pulacan. The MGM spent much of the late 20th century in caucus or close proximity with the Juwa Party's left-wing and religious factions, with whom the MGC shares significant voter base overlap. Notably, when in government with Juwa, the MGM often aims to underscore community improvement, social spending, and urban renewal projects. The most famous of the latter was the 1956 Boko Plan, drafted by MGC-controlled secretariats during the tenure of General Secretary and namesake Sechele Boko.
Society of Mogale Spirit Patriots Black-Yellow-Green Flag (Kunami).svg 2011 Anti-Kabaya'anism
Anti-colonialism (claimed)
Mogale Spirit politics
Nationalist populism
Keabetswe Ngele
11 / 327
Big tent;

right-wing to far-right

Founded in 2011, the Society is an umbrella organization of several different right-wing parties with intersecting, but distinct, ideologies, with alleged connections to the Djebe Liberation Army. When then-General Secretary Iuitl Mogorosi moved to expand the Juwa party's parliamentary majority via the 2022 snap election, they were upset by a huge loss of seats as many Ozerosi skeptics switched to the rising Society, led by television personality-turned-politician Keabetswe Ngele. The surge brought the Mogale Spirit Society into the mainstream, and the party continues to grow in popularity. Ngele is known for his idiosyncratic and nationalist "Mogale Spirit" ideology, which advocates for government promotion of reactionary cultural values attributed to a mythologized imagination of honorbound megale (elite warrior-bureaucrats from Pulacan's medieval period). The foreign policy of the Society is malleable, but frequently prioritizes developing concrete relations with Malaioan states in spite of (or even replacing entirely) existing agreements with the AON and Zacapican.

5 / 327
Far-left While most adherents to Phansi Uhlangan-aligned Wernerism in Pulacan prefer violent to electoral means of change, the PFWIA stands out as an exception that proves the rule. Its delegate total usually fails to exceed single digits, largely due to its niche appeal between voters radical enough to support total Wernerist change, but not radical enough to support violent counter-state guerrilla groups like certain cells of the Djebe Liberation Army.
Majambazi Party Piratpartiet.svg 2008 Pirate party
Satire politics
3 / 327
Single-issue The Majambazi Party arose from the explosive rise in Pulateh with internet access in the 1990s and 2000s. The party represents itself through tounge-in-cheek campaigns and advocates for widespread copyright reform, as well as digital privacy and safety regulations.
