The Alliance is a member of the [[Socialist Alternative for Euclea]].  


Historically the Progressive Alliance was the major {{wpl|Big tent|catch-all}} bloc of the Alslandic {{wpl|Centre-left politics|centre-left}} and has connections to socialist trade unions. It is the largest political alliance of the 'Socialist' pillar of Alslandic society. Since 2011 the Alliance has moved closer towards adopting {{wpl|Centrism|centrist}} positions and has a large and influential {{wpl|Social Liberalism|social liberal}} wing.
The Progressive Alliance was founded on 9 February 2006 by centre-left members of the [[Worker's Party (Alsland)|Social Democratic Workers' Party]] who disagreed with the party's shift towards the left and alliance with the [[Alslandic Section of the Workers' International]]. It is the largest political alliance of the 'Socialist' pillar of Alslandic society. Since 2011 the Alliance has moved closer towards adopting {{wpl|Centrism|centrist}} positions and has a large and influential {{wpl|Social Liberalism|social liberal}} wing. Since 2017 the party has been led by [[Ottila Möller]] - the daughter of [[Per Schnyder]] who was one of the main founders of the Alliance. Prior to 2022 it had close links to the [[Democratic Federation of Alslandic Labour]], the second largest trade union in Alsland although the Union voted to abolish all ties with the party. The PA is a supporter of Alslandic membership in the [[Euclean Community]], since 2010 it has been a coalition partner of [[Liveable Alsland]], the [[National Bloc (Alsland)|National Bloc]] and the [[Humanist Sotirian Union]].
 
The alliance is one of three political alliances in Alsland with the other being the [[National Bloc (Alsland)|National Bloc]] and [[Together for the Republic]]. Each bloc is seen as political opponents to each other. Members of the alliance agree not to stand candidates in communities which another member party stands candidates in.


The party won only 7 seats at the [[Alsland|2006 legislative election]] and sat with other {{wpl|Centre-right politics|centre-right}} parties in opposition to the [[Jabik Nieuwenhuis|Nieuwenhuis coalition]]. The Alliance also became the second largest party after the 2009 municipal elections. At the [[Alsland|2018 legislative election]] the party grew it's number of seats from 10 to 35 and won 18.5% of the popular vote. Since the [[2022 Alslandic legislative election|2022 election]] the party has been in merger talks with the [[Social Democratic Workers' Party (Alsland)|Social Democratic Workers' Party]] and the [[Green - Alternative Choice]] to unite into a single political party

===Martiland===
Throughout most of the alliance's history, it has denied ethnic Kirenians in Martiland proper representation in the alliance, instead from 1958 until 1995 the SDyD ran candidates in Martiland. Members of the SDyD were the most vocal in their opposition to including any Kirenian party in the alliance. Under the leadership of Seine De Haan in 1994 the party condemned the inclusion of the Kirenian People's Party. The SDyD was fined €1.2 Million for promoting hate speech directed at ethnic Kirenians in Martiland by the Alslandic supreme court in 1996. The decision was not appealed but was criticised by various SDyD politicians including newly elected leader Bonne Zijlstra.
In 2004, Premier Martina Scott's new cabinet was criticised for not including any members of the KPP or ethnic Kirenians. The cabinet led to the KPP threatening to withdraw from the Progressive Alliance and withdraw it's support for the government. In the subsequent election the KPP ran a separate list from the rest of the bloc which suffered it's worst election result in history.

===Yndyk dispute===
The Yndyk dispute refers to a dispute within the Social Democrats in Delland between party officials and the local parties in Yndyk and Middewald who prefer splitting the party in 3. Only 2 leaders of the SDyD were born outside of Delland. The Yndyk branch of the SDyD separated briefly in 2011 over the issue and were subsequently removed from the Alliance. The Alliance threatened to run candidates against the Yndyk Socialists unless it re-joined the SDyD which it did shortly afterwards. In 2022 a report on creating a separate party for Middewald and Yndyk alleged that the new party wouldn't result in any significant benefits for the Alliance.

The Progressive Alliance (Dellish: Progressyf Alliânsje, Weranian: Progressive Allianz, Swathish: Progrvẹrcic Vyncynn, Kirenian: Progressiivne liit) also commonly referred to as the Progressives or the Alliance, is a progressive centre-left political party in Alsland. The Alliance is a member of the Socialist Alternative for Euclea.

The Progressive Alliance was founded on 9 February 2006 by centre-left members of the Social Democratic Workers' Party who disagreed with the party's shift towards the left and alliance with the Alslandic Section of the Workers' International. It is the largest political alliance of the 'Socialist' pillar of Alslandic society. Since 2011 the Alliance has moved closer towards adopting centrist positions and has a large and influential social liberal wing. Since 2017 the party has been led by Ottila Möller - the daughter of Per Schnyder who was one of the main founders of the Alliance. Prior to 2022 it had close links to the Democratic Federation of Alslandic Labour, the second largest trade union in Alsland although the Union voted to abolish all ties with the party. The PA is a supporter of Alslandic membership in the Euclean Community, since 2010 it has been a coalition partner of Liveable Alsland, the National Bloc and the Humanist Sotirian Union.

The party won only 7 seats at the 2006 legislative election and sat with other centre-right parties in opposition to the Nieuwenhuis coalition. The Alliance also became the second largest party after the 2009 municipal elections. At the 2018 legislative election the party grew it's number of seats from 10 to 35 and won 18.5% of the popular vote.
