Podemos-Derecha Unida (English: We Can - Conservatives United), is a liberal and conservative political party that is active in the Pacitalian autonomous community of Marquería.

The party has a cooperation agreement with national centre-right parties to avoid competing for the same voters. Due to Pacitalia's use of instant-runoff voting, voter splits tended to allow left-wing parties to pick up large numbers of seats on second- and third-preference votes; the cooperation agreement with parties like the Federation of Progressive Democrats and Christian Democrats is intended to give the party the best chance to elect centrist and centre-right lawmakers to national and regional legislatures.

The PDU campaigns as a traditional centre-right "big tent" party that is home to a wide range of liberal and conservative views. The party is pro-business, and advocates for smaller government and against labour unions. It supports remaining part of Pacitalia, in contrast to the left-wing Libertad Marquería Juntos, which has traditionally called for Marquerian autonomy or independence.

It holds a plurality of seats on the regional council of Marquería. The party contested a national election for the first time in 2023. It won 14 seats in the Constazione and elected a pair of senators. The PDU's assembly in both houses is the seventh largest.
