### Election

2015

The **23rd Chawopolis Palace** was a legislative session of the Imperial Assembly of the Chawopolis Palace that lasted shorter than expected from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2017, dividing the January 1, 2016-December 31, 2019 term into two Palaces, the first being this one and the second being its successor, Palace 24. Palace 23 was the first one-party controlled Palace since the 14th Chawopolis Palace that ended in the 1975 Chawosaurian legislative elections. By the end of Palace 23, the Capitalist Parties had control of the Monarchy while the Chawallian Communist Party had parliamentary control of both the Premiership through Prime Minister Jonathan Dragan Boleslaus IX and the Chawopolis Palace.

The Chawallian Communist Party briefly had unified control of government as they had control of the Monarchy, the Premiership, and the Chawopolis Palace, all it once. However, in March 2016, a drastic shift in party control disturbed business when Supreme Leader Samantha Wawetseka was removed by her own Communist Party due to interparty tensions, sexism. and lack of trust between each other, and when she was removed, the Communist Party blindly thought the House of Dynasties would pick a communist successor, but instead chose Abooksigun Eluwilussit, who was an anti-communist and one of the leaders of the Chawosaurian Revolution. Upon the swearing in of Supreme Leader Abooksigun Eluwilussit on March 18, 2016, the Capitalists had control of the Monarchy and thereby beginning the Abooksigian Era upon this situation until the election of Shang Jong Parker in 2019, while the Communist Party had control of both the Premiership and the Chawopolis Palace, resulting in a Communist Party parliamentary government in the Chawopolis Palace.

The Communist Party abused their role as the Palace's ruling party, they removed their own Supreme Leader, Samantha Wawetseka, for being the first woman ever elected to the monarchy in Chawosaurian History, thus impeaching her and removing her from office which triggered a monarchical selection which resulted in the election of the first non-Communist emperor since Emperor Santiago in 41 years. The Communist Party leadership called the 2016 Chawosaurian direct election in which the party refused to run a candidate, which resulted in another woman elected. Malina Lusa Parker of a Green Party became Supreme Leader and was assassinated a month into her monarchy, replaced by Oconostota Eluwilussit, who was also elected out of the monarchy in the same monarchical selection, being replaced by his maternal uncle, Degotoga K. Atagulkalu, who will orchestrate the longest reign in the Capitalist, Abooksigunian Era (2016-2019).

Determined to get the monarchy back, the Communist Party clashed with Degotoga K. Atagulkalu by desperately calling the April 2017 Chawosaurian direct election, where this time, the party ran a candidate, Timothy Max Roosevelt II, the son of Timothy Max Roosevelt, and the election resulted in a tie, leading to a dual-monarchy between DKA and Roosevelt. A couple months later, DKA desegregated the military in favor of religious minorities, this infuriated the Communist Party that they called the December 2017 Chawosaurian direct election, and when DKA packed the Palace with more seats, the Communist Party called the 2017 Chawosaurian legislative elections.

The 2017 Chawosaurian elections resulted in DKA winning reelection outright and DKA's supporters capturing a supermajority in the Palace, pushing the Communist Party into a minority party and transitioning them into the official opposition party. After the election, the 24th Chawopolis Palace began.
