Democratic Party of Solentia

The Democratic Party of Solentia is a center-left party that rose to prominence for its championship of civil liberties, immigrant and minority rights and opportunities, and a strong national defense.

The Founding
The Democratic Party was founded as the Chann Democratic Party in January of 3180. The founder, Sotear Chann, was the patriarch of the Chann family, a noble family who sought refuge from the tyrannical reign of Chann's nephew.

The family settled in Rhegium, Fuwan and came into contact with many inequalities and discrimination. This launched the whole family into local politics, leading to the formation of the Chann Democratic Party.

The party made headlines when Sotear Chann voiced opposition to the Religion Reform of 3178. Throughout the year leading up to the 3181 elections, the CDP under Chann organized efforts and introduced legislation to enhance civil liberties in Solentia, among which were:An Act to Restore, Reform, and Protect Civil Liberties, the Freedom to Marry Act, the Hope for Children Act.

In the election of 3181, the CDP surprised many when it won 168 seats of the 425 seat senate. Within a year, it had become the largest of 8 parties, with the Federal Independent Party coming in second at 129 seats.
