Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (Korolia)

The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (ALD), also known as the Lib Dems or Liberal Democrats, is a centrist to center-left political party in Korolia. It was founded in 1100 after the 1099 elections, when an independent candidate for Sejm and Pjervod, Icy Zerkalo-Korol II, and AUPRK leader Maxime Boucher came together to form the ALD.

The party's formation was further strengthened by the inclusion of moderate members from the KNRP after its dissolution. This diverse membership base has allowed the ALD to gain widespread support across Korolia, making it one of the most popular parties in the country according to polling data.

## Formation

In 1100 Icy Zerkalo-Korol II and Maxime Boucher came together to form a new party which would place centre-centre left on the political spectrum. The formation of the party is known to start a "new era" in Korolian politics and deliver the change the nation needs. They advertise themselves as the party that can "Get it Done" which is a slogan they have adopted.

The party also had absorbed the far right KNRP party members who saw themselves as more right wing and some that were left wing which then grew the party size and increased its voter demographic to a more diverse audience.

## Mesa Project

The Mesa Project was created by the Korolian National Restoration Party (KNRP) in the late 80's and early 90's, the project was set to take place in Krasni Zamek. But because of the KNRP dissolving the ALD decided to take the project on as their own which allowed them to make reforms and make the project deliver more opportunities for the citizens and the business owners. Here are the plans for the Mesa Project:

* Terraform the red mesa in Krasni Zamek to make way for new infrastructure specifically made for businesses.
* Create shops with second floor living spaces for business owners to provide homes for Korolian Businesses.
* Create a mall for not only Korolian businesses but also for international businesses. International businesses pay $1000 a week.
* CEO/Manager's of the mall will have a monthly wage of $1000.

The primary objective of this project is to expand economic growth, generate opportunities, and create incentives for establishing businesses, thereby contributing to the overall economy and providing a source of income for all Korolians. The inclusion of international businesses in the plan is intended to potentially supply resources to national builders and citizens, supporting personal and national projects for national growth.

## Get it Done Program

The 'Get it Done' program was started by the ALD member, Mateuš Kovařík who is the current Pjervod. This program was created to focus on his belief of the top 3 issues which the nation is facing which are as follows:

* **Economic Growth**
* **Infrastructure Development**
* **Provide Public Services**

The program explains how to 'Get it Done' in a few simple tasks which the government he leads will work towards. The program was explained in the first published manifesto by the party and Pjervod, this manifesto solely outlines the three national issues. Here is how the ALD will 'Get it Done':

### Economic Growth:

The ALD focuses on expanding cacti farms which currently exist in Rudina, Zlatoport and Lipanovo-Ostrokochod to produce more cacti which would be used to produce XP to sell, the profits gained by this is said to go towards national projects that benefits the nation as a whole.

The manifesto also outlines a tactic to boost business opportunity by supporting the Mesa Project which was originally created by the dissolved KNRP party, the ALD took on the Mesa Project and they aim to expand and improve the project by providing funding, investments and governmental support. The Mesa Project aims to terraform the Krasni Zamek mesa and use it to create a mall for national and international businesses as well as constructing separate shops only for the national buisiness use, these shops will also increase housing for business owners as each shop will have a floor for living space.

The ALD Manifesto also outlines tactics to fund public projects which actively contribute to the economy and produce profit. The money used to fund such projects are to come from the cacti farms and the money produced from the Mesa Project. One of these public projects is to bring back the nations brewing industry (KBrew) as it is soon to return after a long-term business hiatus. The brews produced is expected to be used to gain money from international trade and to provide for national businesses and the army.

### Infrastructure Development

The ALD plans to build up the urban areas of the nation as well as focusing on restructuring old and unfinished builds. This is one of their tactics to solve the national housing crisis and economic fall as they lack both shops and homes. Restructuring and developing infrastructure would be focused on solving the aforementioned issues by building/repairing homes and shops. This project in the manifesto will also have a focus within the nations capital, Zlatoport.

The ALD also plans to give towns their own "roles" and organise them into different sectors of focus which are required for the nation to grow and develop faster such as towns having a focus on either business, agriculture, housing or military. The ALD plans to assign one of these sectors to each town to organise development projects. As well as doing this, they will be funding public projects which actively contribute in said infrastructural development by using government funds and money raised from party donations.

### Providing Public Services

The ALD plan to introduce a four step plan like the other policies. One of these steps would be to create workshops allowing citizens to enchant, repair and create the essential gear and tools for the day to day life of citizens. They plan to introduce these workshops in every city across the nation to increase the accessibility to these services and allow the people to gain the basic necessities they need. Alongside this they have another step to create more community storage centres in every city to also ensure accessibility to resources for the nations workers and people to boost productivity and create faster growth in the nations infrastructure, business productivity and more communal commitment to the national effort for growth.

The ALD also plan to create community farms which will be accessible across the whole nation for all citizens to benefit from, this initiative is to provide free food to all citizens to end "wasting money on buying food" and instead let the nation provide it for free. They see food as a basic right to live and a necessity for day to day life and therefore it should not be something people spend money on.
