Current Laudean Politics are strongly influenced by the Revolution and Civil War of Til'hon. The current system of government is parliamentary, where a coalition cabinet is present.

Status

• In the last election, Zeon Zrong’s Neo-Modernist party won a majority by attracting votes from the masses whilst also attracting supporters away from Royalist and Tradionalist trends.
• With Zeon’s borther Paetra Zrong having broken away from the Neo-Modernist party and founding the Popularist party for the masses, Zeon Zrong’s Neo-Modernist party is weakend. Polls indicate that Zeon Zrong has also lost his right wing support back to the Royalists and Tradionalist.

Political Parites

There are five main political parties:

• The Neo-Modernists: The centre, and currently ruling party founded post-election. Succeeded in attracting support from the masses and from traditional ruling classes. Credited with uniting Duronis II democratically, the party looks to the future and believes in modernisation of the Laudean way of life. Their success is partially rooted in succeeding in attracting voters away from parties that were wearier of change and more conservative in preserving the Laudean way of life.
  • Leader: Zeon Zrong
  • Status: Major Party
• The Popularists: Slightly left of the centre ground. Durionis II’s newest political pary, founded by Paetra Zrong as an alternative to the Neo-Modernists. The party’s policies are actually somewhat unclear but they have a great media drive and large popularity and following amongst the voting masses who find their charm and power to the people attitudes appealing.
  • Leader: Paetra Zrong
  • Status: Major Party
• The Naturalists: Extreme Left of centre. The naturalists are almost anti-technology and modernisation. In touch with their environment and the elements they are often powerful fielders and very down to earth people. Not overly politically active but a lot of support in more rural areas of Duronis II. Strong attachment to their space of nature and sharing many of the early beliefs that set up the fielding league but much more part of the people and a way of life. Refusal to acknowledge the modern world makes them a smaller party.
  • Leader: Ahishma Chandra
  • Status: Minor Party
• The Royalists: Right of Centre, the Royalists are staunch supporters of the former ruling classes and aristocracy. If elected they would disband the democracy and reinstate the Royal families, wanting a pre-revolution way of life. Of course, because of this, their support is weak and this is a small party.
  • Leader: Oluwa Dela O’Kande
  • Status: Minor Party
• The Traditionalists: Extreme Right of Centre, this is the party who lends its full support to the Fielding League and belief the Elders and the Feldlesser should be more than just the moral leaders of the people. Believing in Fielding and the tradional ways of Laudean life the Traditionalists ironically share many similarities with the extreme left naturalists, however, the traditionalists are much more rooted in their support for propriety, traditions and ceremony. Of course, because of this, their support is weak and this is a small party.
  • Leader: Benu Hashiwa
  • Status: Minor Party
