Lodamese Nationalistic Committee

Lodamese Nationalistic Committee
The Lodamese Nationalistic Committee or LNC was founded by Paul Murphy-Spaak as a replacement of Progressive & Alternative. The disappointing results in the elections of September 3719 had the Progressives think about their future. A name change seemed the best way to show the party had changed. Nationalistic was added since the party had grown to be more and more nationalist over the years. The committee actually was a reborn P&A, since lots of politicians made the transfer and LNC used all of P&A's facilities and budgets. P&A remains a registered mark.

The structure of the new party is more or less unchanged.

In the charter of LNC, the party declares that above all the Lodamese Nationalism is responsible for the glorious Republic of Lodamun. Therefore LNC engages in the protection of the sole national religion.

In April 3732 a new fraction emerged within LNC led by Henry Percy. The fraction was referred to as Enlightened Lodamun and was tolerated by the chairman as part of the organisation. It would become an independant political party soon.

Electoral results
Having only 95 seats in the Presidium, LNC started as an opposition party under a Social-Democratic Coalition. On December 1, 3731 LNC participated in a Social National Republican Coalition under President Gordon Fertig. LNC would also participate in two coalitions afterwards. Eventhough results were poor, LNC has been in several governments since the formation of a coalition in 3753.

Political achievements
LNC introduced Regional Assemblies and Governors to decide local law in 3729.

They made sure polygamy received a legal status in Lodamun.

Chairmen
When Alexander Desmedt was chosen chairman, he announced that Paul Murphy-Spaak received the title of Honorary Chairman.

Headquarters
Since May 3712, P&A had its new HQ at 15a, Main Road in Port Golavia. LNC used this facility from day 1 on.

Presidential Guard
The Presidential Guard has two facilities: one at only 150 metres from LNC HQ, the other just outside Fort Karav.

Red Barets
The Red Barets are the paramiltary organisation affiliated to LNC. After being prohibited, 6000 of them moved to Lourenne, where they assisted in the civil war from 3775 on. After the war ended, they remained in Lourenne, since they would be prosecuted on arrival in Lodamun. Most of them returned in 3783 and 3784. On April 1, 3792 the group was dissolved.
