Dynamocratic Party

The Dynamocratic Party is the third oldest active party and one of the most important in Rutanian politics. It is a centre-right capitalist party. It is committed to defending the freedom of markets and ensuring a high level of national security. On foreign affairs, it is committed to positive engagement with other like-minded nations to establish powerful free trade and defence blocs.

Formation
Before forming the Dynamocratic Party, the Dynamocrats were a politically-interested group of young, wealthy individuals who attended the aristocratic Dreons Club in Newtonia, the Rutanian capital. They were heavily involved and had considerable financial investment in a charitable enterprise, the Small Business Support Foundation, which aimed to support entrepreneurs setting up in Rutania. Under the oppressive socialism of many of the administrations at the time, it had become clear by early 4655 to one of the most influential members of the group, Seymour Hector Monroe 5th Baron of Richardholm, or 'Lord Monroe', that it was necessary to spearhead a new political movement in Rutania.

At around the same time as Lord Monroe was coming to this opinion, another wealthy young man in the group - Bertram Wilberforce Wooster - had terrible family news. His cousin, Lt. Eustace Wooster of the 5th Ardinian Rifles, was one of three mortalities in a terrorist attack in the Commonwealth of Hutori. His regiment had been garrisoned in Hutori, one of Rutania's closest allies, for over a decade but, due to the pacifism of the Socialist Egalitarian Party administration at the time, had begun to withdraw. As a direct result, fanatical Ahmadists had seen this weakened garrison as a prime target for their attack. Mr Wooster came to blame what he called 'corrosive pacifism' for his cousin's death and began to spearhead a militarist movement within the Dynamocratic group.

As a key member of the group, Mr Wooster was there when - in June 4655 - Lord Monroe called an Extraordinary Meeting of the Club Committee at the Dreons Club. In an extended and impassioned speech, Lord Monroe called for the group to pull together in the formation of a new political party that stood up for small business and entrepreneurs. As he finished to resounding applause, Mr Wooster - flanked by his militarist friends - leapt to his feet. In a short and emotional statement, he supported Lord Monroe's call for a political party but declared that he and his colleague's could not support the motion unless the party were to put national security alongside business in its priorities. Lord Monroe accepted his proposition and invited Mr Wooster to stand as his running partner in the forthcoming election for a new leader. The two men stood unopposed and were declared Leader and Deputy Leader of the new Dynamocratic Party in August 4655.
