The United Left, also commonly called the Reds or the ULP (colloquially), is a currently defunct and relatively short-lived contemporary far left political party in Belhavia in the early post-Galarian period, being active from late 1945 until early 1961, when it was disbanded and criminalized following the December 1960 Bloomberg Affair, where many of its members were discovered to be closeted leftists whose views were prohibited under the White Terror laws.
At the time of its existence, it overlapped two Party Systems - the very late end of Third Party System (1858 - 1955) and the current Fourth Party System (1955 - present). It was opposed on the right by the Federalist Party (until 1955) and then the Conservative Party (1955 onward), opposed on the center-left by the Liberal Democratic Party and the similarly-short-lived National Patriotic Union party on the far right.
