The Radicals, often referred to by their Azmaran name, Radikaalen, are a centrist political party in Azmara with a socially liberal and pro-Euclean programme. The party is the third-largest within the Folksmot with and currently serves as a junior partner within the Anasdohter government alongside the Green Party, with party president Ana Freidriksdohter currently serving as Deputy Thingspeaker and Foreign Secretary.
The party emerges from the merger of various splinter groups from the Gold Flame party in the early 1920s, the most notable of these being the New Liberals who were exiled from the party for supporting the socialist ADAA-ÞB government that formed after the 1921 election. The party would grow in opposition to the ruling right-wing National Coalition over the next decade, and after the Realignment would emerge as a major partner to the Workers' Party, with the two having a notable two-decade stretch in power from 1933 to 1954. Since then the two parties have normally attempted to govern together, yet notably in 1990-3 and 2014-7 the party would co-operate with the right and between 1972-5 and 2005-8 the party would form and preside over the leadership of two centrist governments.
The party's platform emphasises the idea of a social market economy, supporting pro-market economic policies coupled with an active safety net, alongside many liberal and progressive social causes such as feminism, environmentalism, Azmaran federalism and LGBT rights and an internationalist and strongly pro-Euclean foreign policy. The party's support base largely consists of educated, economically affluent voters, normally those working in professional roles, yet it has a noted support base amongst the rural province of Haadland, largely as a result of the party's strong federalist and pro-national minority tendencies.
