</infobox>The Democratic Convergence Union, commonly abbreviated as DCU, is a Centre-Right political party, active in Santonian politics and previously in Kassylia and Selidoar. It is the main party in the country of Santos, where it was originally founded by Uri Dracdein the 19th of June 2024.
== Santos ==
The DCU in Santos is the main political organisation in the political space and currently controls its government. It currently controls 6 of the 7 seats in Parliament, 1 of it having been ceded to an SMP member, under the DCU after a pre-election deal during the political crisis of the 2nd Legislative Election.
The leader, Uri Dracdein, ran for senator in the first election for the constituency of Shapjora Nofise. The debate the previous day positively impacted the outcome and placed the DCU as an option for change. However, the electoral system was confusing, and due to 2 constituencies not having oponents, the seats were simply given to the only running candidates. The election results were 5 votes for Uri and 2 for Lewis Miska.
After being elected, Uri made 2 main proposals. One involved activity incentives and an activity plan with events and gamenights. The 2nd proposal was a complete re-structure of the Political System, including a Parliament, removing the Higher and Lower Senates and the role of Prime Minister with a Minister cabinet. With it also came an instruction manual on the Electoral Process. After being passed into law by the senate, he asked the King, Michael to call for new elections under the new system.
At this point, the SSB, the secret service stepped in after Uri also asked for special executive powers because of the inactive senate until the new elections happened. They argued that the new election was happening to early and that giving powers would not be safe, even though activity was growing. Eventually, they settled for the 1st of September for the new election and limited powers. 
The 1st Legislative/Parliamentary Election was a great success for the DCU which grew from 1/4 of seats or 25% to 5/7 or 71% of seats after a rise in popularity. New members joined the party who became Ministers. The SMP, who ran in the election aswell was offered a Ministerial position for diversity in the government but they refused due to being unable to be active enough.
Time passed and new legislation passed but around the end of september, Uri could not be as active and since the system was at the time, ran only by the Prime Minister, the nation came to somewhat of a halt. Around the middle of October, Deathors joined the nation. He created a big company and made loads of money with it. He was made Minister of Economy by Uri but Deathors did not deliver as Minister. Nontheless, he would then decide to run against the DCU as an Independent candidate for the election.

== Selidoar ==
The DCU party in the Konreich of Selidoar is currently under the Seladorian Sovereign Union (SSU) alliance with two other parties to unite as a formal opposition to the Selidoarian National Party. The nation's inactivity has also been reflected to the party and no further political events other than the Presidential Election, just before this wave of inactivity.
== Kassylia ==
The DCU in the Kassylian Republic did not have the same influence as in Selidoar or Santos. In preparation for the The leader of the DCU, Uri Dracdein talked to the Front For Progress (Ct. to Ct-Left) and Kassylian Labour Union (Ct-Left) leaders to form a united candidature in opposition to the Worker's Union under Luka Petróvic. The Workers' Union united with a Right wing (previously far right) party, The Conservative Party, and created the Coalition of Unity.
Polling showed a slow decrease with the Coalition of Unity all while a crisis was rising with conflict between the CoU leader and Uri Dracdein. After the election and Uri's claims of election fraud and corruption because of the result difference with previous polls, the conflict escalated significantly. The CoU had achieved parliamentary absolute majority with 60% of teh vote while polling at 30%. During this time, the DCU was dissolved and Uri simply remained as a direct member of the Flower Coalition. The claims of corruption and fraud were never proven but the scandal reached a critical point. Eventually, Uri under political and emotional pressure self-imposed his exile a week after being elected as Member of Parliament.
