1979 Albian general election

A general election was held in Albia on 24 November 1979 to elect the president of Albia and the members of the Senate. The election was the first to be held since the dissolution of the Albo-Corbarian Empire following the conclusion of the Northern Civil War the same year. The interim government, led by the Civilian Support Party, had become increasingly unpopular, due to both the war and it's mismanagement of post-war Albia, which had devolved into an economic crisis.
The centre-right Christian Democratic Party, led by Ronald Schildknecht, won the election in a landslide victory. This would be the only time in Albian history where a party would win the election with more than 50% of the vote. The loss of the ZUP later led to the party's splintering into what would later amalgamate as both the SLPA and the Albian Left.
