Your Leader's Chief Opponent

[ArghNeedAName]

In the case of ArghNeedAName, the Minority Leader of the National Assembly is the chief opponent of the Prime Minister's policy (the Majority Leader). Currently, David Lesley leads the Conservative Party and challenges the Prime Minister's policies and decisions (especially during Question Time). If the Liberal Party lose the National Assembly in the next election in two years time, it would be assumed that Lesley would become the new Prime Minister.

Of course, if your nation is a single party state, absolute monarchy or dictatorship, there is still a good chance that there is someone within your leader's ranks who wants to challenge them and usurp their position.

[Of the Quendi]

I think you should change the thread name to something a little more general about oppositions.

My leaders chief opponents are each other. Arabella Alcedina dislikes Alesia Alcedina who hates Arabella. Alesia disapproves of Lord Ilion Miolandra who is opposed to Rillian Raa Xanthi who has a tolerable relationship with Arabella and Alesia.

Ed Miliband, yes we are the essence of the U.K

EDIT: Sorry misunderstood it.

[Samuraikoku]

Civil war has ravaged Samuraikoku for too long. The Sanada clan, through fair dealings and iron-fisted fighting skills, gathered the most important daimyôs of Oshû, Echigo, Owari, Kai, Mikawa and Bizen and made a peace treaty. Then they destroyed a tyrannical, useless and common enemy: Yoshimoto Imagawa, daimyô of Suruga, and his ally Ishida Mitsunari from Mount Suwa. After their final battle at Suriagehara, the daimyô of the Sanada clan was unanimously appointed Shôgun of Samuraikoku, and the daimyôs supporting him were greatly rewarded, thus finally achieving peace.

[Ruskarkand]

Right now, we have two leaders, both are currently contending with eachother to prove who is the better leader for their species in the nation of Ruskarkand.

Basically, for the High Dragoness 'Soul', it would be the High Dragoon 'Dimitri'
And for the High Dragoon, it would be the High Dragoness.

It's a friendly competition though, they treat eachother both as a friend, and as opposition.

[Syvorji]

The Official Opposition in the High Council is Layton, and he leads the NDP.

[Kalumba]

President Smith's chief opponent is leader of the United Kalumban Tribes party, Cheif Nukimi.

[Taboa]

In the case of the Monarch, King Maximillian, his main opponents to the throne is his distant cousin, Freddie, Earl of Ko, his Uncle, Theodore, Count of Clat, and his brother, Prince Sebastian.

In the case of Prime Minister, David Truman, Leader of the Labour Party, his main opponent is Mariah Newland, Leader of the Conservative Party, other opponents are: Jason Felix, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jesper von Haarde, Leader of the Taboan Independence Party, Thomas Jackson, Leader of the Taboan National Party, Choi Li, Leader of the Green Party and his deputy, Nikolas de Souza, Deputy Leader of the Labour Party.

Just thought you'd like to know all the opponents

[Chardonnier]

The chief opponent of our Prime Minister (currently Sir Cecil Montgomery of the Conservative Party) is the Leader of the Opposition (Thomas Balfour of the Liberal Party). In the General Election held every four years the leader of the winning party is invited to form a government in the House of Commons by His Majesty the King and, as we have only two main parties and many other smaller parties, the most likely candidate, should the current government lose the election, will be Thomas Balfour.

[Norvenia]

The primary opposition in the Norvenian Assembly comes from the conservative-secular Prosperity Party, which stands against the traditionally dominant Christian-socialist Reform Party. The current Prosperity Party chairman is Marc Ribbentrop, and the Chancellor of Norvenia is Reform Party chairman Gwillem Thomas.

[Houca]

The Chief Opponent of President Shane Rone is Senate Minority Leader John Reynolds especially during floor debates with President Rone's fellow National Republicans in the Senate since the President doesn't attend Congressional Debates. In the House, the President is opposed by House Minority Leader Jane Lennox. She usually holds spirited debates with House Majority Leader, Hannah MacIntyre.

[D-16]

D-16 rules solely by himself. There are no opposition to his reign over the galaxy. Merely the escaped slave humans on Earth, and 2 Alien Empires face as "Opponents".

[Victorious Decepticons]

Many would surely like to usurp Megatron, since all Decepticons love power, but Domestic Intelligence finds them long before they get powerful enough to be called a "chief" opponent. Once found, of course, the local Military is sent to deactivate these pathetic wannabes.

Due to this practice, most wouldn't dare to openly oppose the Leader and the few who do are basically signing their own death warrants.

A couple of times a year, however, the population will be treated to a spectacle thanks to someone actually having the Steel to challenge Megatron to single combat in the Arena. It's a gallant way for them to die, at least.

[Saurisisia]

Well, the President is at odds with the more aggressive Commander-in-Chief as well as aggressive military commanders, such as General MacTavish not to mention members of Congressmen who disagree with him and the other members of the Triad on certain issues.

Other than that, there's not a whole lot of political opposition to the Triad, thus there is no "chief opponent".

[The Grand World Order]

Himself. He's in a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde-type scenario.

[The Rich Port]

While there is no one opposition leader, the corporate culture of The Rich Port is contesting almost all of the regulations the country imposes upon it. Lobbying is outlawed, so a lot of the corporations have an actual staff members (from CEO's to CFO's to VP's and Members of the Board) represent the country in protests and assemblies against the current administration.

[The BranRiech]

there are only 2 opponents of the High general. one of them is High Admiral. Alibekova who has disobeyed orders more than once and has argued with the High General on multiple occasions, although he has proved difficult to command, he is to much of a valuble naval officer to waste. the other one is a young army general, general. Marshkakov who has been thinking of starting a coup against the dictatorship. the branriech authorities have been ordered to execute him if they get the chance

[Cameroi]

there are no individual leaders and opponents. just as there are no political parties. only elected servants, who posses no personal authority, but that of the councils on which they are elected (and frequently reelected) to serve, being absolute.

[Stolitland]

Our Prime Minister is Alexander Schmidt. He represents the Libertarian Party.

Currently, our nation has fallen into disarray, as a complete breakdown of law and order has struck the country. Until recently, his opponent, Liberal Democratic Party member Francis Keller, appeared as though he would be his challenger in the next election cycle. Unfortunately, he was recently murdered by a petty criminal. Schmidt's new opponent, also from the LDP, is Kelly Miram; she is running on an anti-crime platform and is seeking the position by accusing Schmidt of being soft on criminals. If Schmidt doesn't get the problem under control soon, he'll have a bigger problem come election day.

[Vellosia]

Ed Miliband, yes we are the essence of the U.K

Yes.

Anyway, since our nation is an absolute monarchy, and as all dissenters are eliminated, there is no real opposition. However, in the High Council, the Upper House of Parliament that makes up the government, is unelected and runs the country on a day to day basis, the opposition to the current Triumvirate of Hierarchs that lead the Council is the so-called Liberal Bloc (although, in reality, they are actually far-right), headed by the Opposition Triumvirate of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Minister of Tranquility and the Vice-Minister of Fortitude.

[Xanicea]

Premier Ivan Vroronin's chief political opponent is surprisingly from within his own ranks. Amy Petrenko, an up-and-coming lieutenant, is dissatisfied with the amount of freedom the people are given. She supported the Premier when the civil war had just ended and he'd established a dictatorship, but his slow progress towards a more constitutional state has had her seething for quite a while now.

Though the two are good friends and participate frequently in many verbal spars, Ivan has put her dossier on the watch list for the Ether Sphere: Intelligence Division, as her behavior as of late (performing great rallying speeches and often seen conversing in private with higher-up officials to whom she is normally cold towards) is very distressing and may prove to be the Premier's downfall and the reestablishment of Xanicea as an absolute dictatorship.

[The Rich Port]

Himself. He's in a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde-type scenario.

Wow, what a schizo.

[The Grand World Order]

Himself. He's in a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde-type scenario.

Wow, what a schizo.

Which is almost precisely what's going on. Surely you've read my explanation about how he was set on fire and such when he was a child, causing super-severe trauma that he has killed people over to keep secret?

But yes, he's constantly fighting a war inside his head, and hundreds of rebels have been butchered like cows underneath his office to help him suppress his more psychotic side. Beyond that, he behaves like a gentleman.

[Democratic Koyro]

Opposition?!?!?! the very thought of any form of opposition towards the Leader in Koyro is laughable
