Xilimandang

The Xilimandang, shortened to XLMD, was a faction of the Labor and Civic Party (LCP) and former independent party. It was established in Longyearbyen on the 27th of July, 2022, and served as the main party of many Chinese-Vandistanis. The XLMD was the sole party of the city government of Leizhou, before its collapse following the leader Xiliman's exile from Vandistan on 19 July 2023. It also owned the Leiminbao, the only newspaper available in Leizhou. The XLMD was known for its cult-like obsession with Xiliman, and its constant strife with VZAS, a Vandiino nationalist organization. 
After its merge with the LCP, the XIlimandang remained continually popular in elections, despite numerous controversies, including the Laiskatt Race Riots, Vandiini Famine, and the Firebombing of Noshkolm. However, following an attempted rebellion in Leizhou known as Black June, the faction tanked in popularity and failed to enter the Sixth Parliament as an independent party. 
Counting those deported in the establishment of Leizhou, various riots, the Firebombing of Noshkolm, Black June, and several other incidents, the victims of the Xilimandang number in the hundreds of thousands.
