The **Libertarian Republican Party** (Malay: *Parti Republikan Libertarian;* abbrev: **LRP** or **PRL**; formerly called the **Libertarian Crisal Party**) is a right-wing political party in Calliebrium. Founded in 1815, it is one of the world's oldest continuous national political party and the oldest one in Calliebrium and it is referred to as the "Grand Old Party" in the Republic.

The party was established in Athens, Greece as the Libertarian Crisal party to uphold Greek nationalism before shifting its focus to libertarianism and Crisalism. It became popular in Greece during the leadership of Ezra Augustus Prazal after he led mass protests in Athens and parts of the British Empire such as in London, Kuala Lumpur, Calcutta and Perth. This cultivated to a long-standing culture of Crisalism and Prazalism within certain influential families across the world until the independence of Calliebrium. The party then renamed itself to the Libertarian Republican Party after the Republic's inception.

Initially founded as a far-left party in 1815, the leftist faction was expelled during the Proclamation, where leftist and first Prime Minister Jeremiah Nikolaidis resigned from the party. Newly elected President of the party, Emilios Theofanis then enacted major reforms to move the party towards the centre-right.

The LRP's goals are to uphold the aspirations of Crisalism and a conservative interpretation of Prazalism. It is also ideologically allied to Greek nationalism in the Republic and aspires to protect the cultures of Calliebrium as unique distinct cultures as opposed to civic Calliebrimium nationalism. It also aspires to uphold, defend and expand Anglicanism across Calliebrium.

## History

To represent the ideas of Jean de la Crisal, Ezra Augustus Prazal founded the Libertarian Crisal Party after returning to Greece during the Greek Wars of Independence. It was founded to uphold Greek nationalism against tyranny and oppression of Ottoman rule before shifting its focus to anti-monarchism.

Originally, the party was at the forefront of Hellenic Republicanism during the era of the Provincial Government and remained influential until the establishment of the Hellenic Kingdom. Ezra strongly opposed the ascension of King Otto I to the throne and protested heavily in Athens before being arrested and subsequently banished to London.

During Prazal's banishment, the headquarters of the Libertarian Crisal Party was moved from Athens to London. And remained active until Prazal's second banishment to Saint Helena. Whilst in London, the party was well known for orchestrating mass strikes and protests in London before it was banned by the British government.

Influence of the party dwindled until the death of Ezra Augustus Prazal in Saint Helena, until which it became dormant. Outside of Greece, Prazalian ideas prevailed. In 2021, Jeremiah Nikolaidis revived the party to relevancy and used the party as a platform to push for civic nationalism and social democracy.

Before the independence of the Republic of Calliebrium, the party upheld the principles of civic nationalism and polyculturalism, and called for a more liberal and democratic Greece. The party was then renamed to the Libertarian Republican Party after moving to Franciston as its headquarters and shifted its focus from liberalism to mainstream conservatism and Greek nationalism after the Proclamation crisis.

Jeremiah then resigned from the party and Deputy President Emilios Theofanis was then sworn as in as Party President.

### National Libertarian Coalition (NLC)

After months of speculation regarding political scheming within the party and the wider coalition, Coalition of Current Freedoms (CoCF), massive political maneuvers have occurred with mass threatens from grassroots and party veterans including Defense Minister Mikhail Toelau, who threatened to resign from the party and from the government.

Many Members of Parliament from the CoCF have also signed Statutory Declarations (SDs) and submitted them to the Lord Protector to withdraw support from the then Prime Minister Emilios Theofanis due to the mismanagement of the republic's economy. As a response, Prime Minister Emilios Theofanis requested to dissolve Parliament which was then approved by the Lord Protector and subsequently resigned from the party.

As a result, the Coalition of Current Freedoms was dissolved, and a new coalition involving other parties such as the St. Peter's National Party (SPNP) and the Calliebrium Christian Democratic Party (CCDP) was established which is to be called the National Libertarian Coalition.

## Ideology

The party propagates and upholds the principles of conservative Prazalism, which was an idea that all races should enjoy the same amount of freedom and liberty in any country. The conservative outlook of this ideology is that the races should also uphold local traditions and personal or individual cultures, as opposed to a unitary civic national identity.

The party also upholds Anglicanism as the "prevailing religion" of the republic and pushes for stricter policies in regards to Anglicanism. The party is widely considered as the only major party that upholds conservatism with a deep suspicion of communism in the republic. The foundation of the republic is seen as the greatest contribution of the party to the local population despite criticism regarding its social policies that are considered either too libertarian or too conservative.

The party is widely seen as a moderate right-wing party that fights for the struggles of traditionalists and the religious population and it is also widely praised for its social policies that differentiates the locals from the Greeks.
