This article contains a list of political parties in Barcia.
Barcian politics has been traditionally dominated by the Unity Party with some international observers describing the country as having a dominant-party system. The Unity Party has won all but five elections it has contested since its formation in 1949. Of the five occurrences when the party did not win an overall majority (1958, 1964, 1979, 1983 and 2003) three resulted in a hung parliament, leading to the formation of coalition governments. On one of these occasions in 2003, the Unity Party formed a coalition government with Nostra Tera. The other 2 occasions saw the Socialist Party and National Action form a majority government.
