The Revanchist Coalition, (Quebecshirite: Coalition Revanchiste) is a major grouping of political parties in the Serene State of Quebecshire. It is the primary organized group that advocates Revanchism in Quebecshire. It is formed of several political parties and advocacy organizations across Quebecshire. The Revanchist Coalition is generally a big-tent party as it includes groups that mainly range from centre-right to centre-left, however there are some more extreme groups that still associate to it.

The earliest foundations of the Revanchist Coalition can be traced back to the political alliances following the Quebecshirite Civil War. The earliest electoral influence it had was the election of Arsène Champlain following Yvon Delsarte’s commencing of his tenure as Grandmaster. The first Parliament of Quebecshire saw a general mix of prior Monarchists and Republicans working to reconstruct the nation following the war, and the standards set by the Revanchist Coalition were applicable in many following elections.

At several points in history the coalition suffered unity issues due to political disagreements and did not send unified candidates. Other times it had lost elections due to leadership controversies or other issues. Nonetheless, in the modern era, it is considered one of the most influential non-governmental organizations.
