Progressive Party (Dolgavas)

The Progressive Party is a Centre-Left political party operating in Dolgavas and was founded in February 3944. The party runs a social-liberal platform with progressive social policies and strong secular stances.

The Progressive Party was founded in a response to the lack of political parties in Dolgavas at the time, with the previous general election being contested only by independent politicians, mostly appointed by the king. Popularity of the monarch were at all time lows with stability in the nation also hitting all time lows, mostly due to the ever changing political and social landscape of the nation. The Progress Party was formed as a result of this as a big tent coalition of centralists and left-wing citizens. Normunds Migla formed the party along with a wide array of supporters. As soon as the party was founded, an early election was forced with some minor riots goading the monarch into allowing it. Due to no other political parties contesting in the election, the party won a unanimous government, with action to remove the monarchy and reform the nation taking place instantly.

Comparisons between the Progressive Party and older political parties of the nation such as the Forward Party of Dolgaria and Choice have been made with the revolutionary stance of the Forward Party particularly being similar to the Progressive Party, as was the cause for both parties founding's. However the party identifies as "more economically left" than either of these parties, but not being as extreme as some of the defunct communist and socialist parties.
