Democratic League

The Democratic League was a weak alliance of political parties and candidates that ran for the Renminzhi, or National Assembly of Zhongguo. It was founded by FlamingArrow06 and pussilamous, members of the Fuzhen Democratic Party. Although members of the Democratic League generally supported parliamentarianism and a more democratic government, they had differing opinions on other policies as complete abolition of the position of Emperor. In addition, it seemed members and parties were brought under the Democratic League label with little consent or communication between those members and parties.
In the First Zhongguo National Assembly Election, only two out of the four candidates endorsed by the Democratic League won their races; therefore, they were unable to gain a majority and was forced to form a coalition. The two members that won their elections (Puss and Tomad) were not particularlly similar politically, and only voted together in 12 out of the first 22 propositions. Controversially, Tomad chose to vote for himself for the position of Prime Minister, while Puss voted for Agnius, splitting the League. After the disappointing results that came out of the election, the Democratic League faded into irrelevancy, and they hence did not field or endorse any candidates for the Second Zhongguo National Assembly Election. 
==Controversy==
The Democratic League was accused by some in Zhongguo to be an operation by FlamingArrow06 to depose Emperor Sikorskiii and to take over the nation. This arose from comments made by FlamingArrow06 that apparently threatened the Emperor's reign, such as those that advocated for the abolition of the Emperor position. In addition, FlamingArrow was largely unpopular in Zhongguo and the server as a whole, and the League was generally viewed as a way for him to exercise some amount of control over a population which disliked him immensely. The other leader, Pussilamous, was also a controversial player, beloved by the members of Fuzhen, but disliked by some other members of Zhongguo. The majority of candidates endorsed by the League were seen as simply being co-opted into Flaming's scheme, and as a result the idea of the League was generally unpopular.
