The Communist Party is a far-left political party in Lauchenoiria which ruled the country from 1952 until 1993 through an authoritarian regime, and led the country still from 1993 until 2014 following democratic elections. The party is currently led by Élia Agramunt.
History[edit | edit source]
Foundation & pre-revolution[edit | edit source]
1952 Revolution[edit | edit source]
One-party state[edit | edit source]
Following the revolution, the Communist Party outlawed all other parties until 1993 (with the exception of Left Alliance, which was legalised in 1987). During this time period, the Party ruled Lauchenoiria, turning the country into a communist autocracy. The position of Prime Minister was stripped of power, and the President was given most of the power in the country. The Parliament continued its existence, but as a rubber-stamp body for the President. The federal structure of the country was abolished until 1993, with the country being ruled as a unitary state.
Democratic communist period[edit | edit source]
Post-2014[edit | edit source]
Split with True Communist Movement[edit | edit source]
In 2024, a group of Chaherist members of the party led by Javier Flynn split from the party to found the True Communist Movement after party leader Élia Agramunt committed the Communist Party to "democratic communism" and to opposing the use of force in establishing a communist government. This reduced the party's representation in the Federal Parliament of Lauchenoiria from 34 members to 21.
