Elections 2013 San Salazar

[San Salazar]

The 2013 San Salazarian elections have begun! Historically, San Salazar's political parties were lumped into two groups, the Liberationists and the Nationals. The Nationals are for the strong and heavy militarization of San Salazar, nationalism, and adherence to Catholic doctrine with the emphasis on familial support. The Liberationists on the other hand push for nationalism, peaceful and diplomatic relations, and moderate Catholic Doctrine with emphasis on the Liberation Theology.

But 2013 brings the end of dual party relations with the coming of the Communist Party, Eco party, and the Grand Liberals.
