The Division of Papele (/pəˈpɛl/ puh-pell) is a Craftian federal division in the state of Addams. It was created in 2012 and was first contested at the 2013 federal election. It is named after Vincent Papele (1895–1983), a surveyor and cartographer who demarcated the Holbrook Line, marking the boundary between arable and drought-liable areas of central Addams. The division is Addams' largest by area, and was created with its southern border being the original line, but no longer follows it due to redistributions. It is located in northern Addams, wrapping around in a rotated L-shape from the Jebsten border to near the the Kota region.
The sitting member, since the 2061 federal election, is Jeff Nygaard, a member of the Craftian Conservative Party.
==History==
Papele is one of the four seats in central rural Addams popularly known as the "Blue Wall". The current Conservative margin is 20.57% over the National United Party. The other seats in the Blue Wall are Holbrook (18.43% margin), Redleaf (19.52%) and Trijunction (24.76%). Papele has been held by the Conservative Party for its entire existence, and historically was the safest Blue Wall seat. It has only had four members over its 57-year history. The Conservatives currently hold Papele on a margin of 20.57%.
