The Democratic Action League (DAL) is a prominent political party in Canada. It was founded by Dominik (first as the Royal Feudalist Party, later undergoing a name change) as a response to increasingly reactionary politics in the country. Under Dominik, the party managed to briefly enter the top 5, but was pushed away by the reemerging Canadian Paradox Party. After Dominik's resignation, (after a lost election and to distance the party from his controversial persona) , vice-president David Eastcorner took over, where the party stagnated. After Scorpius took over, a massive influx of players was achieved (with Citizen B at the forefront of the recruitment campaign) and the DAL began to take a leading role in Canadian politics.

Formation
The Democratic Action League was formed on March 15, 2009. It had previously been known as the Royal Feudalist Party, however, the party decided to become more serious, and changed its name.
Leadership
The Democratic Action League has mostly had simple, uncompetitive elections. After Dominik stepped down, David Eastcorner won as the only candidate, followed by Scorpius in a similar situation. In June 2009, however, two allies who joined the party within days of each other, Koolmanjack and Derek Harland, both fought hard for the party presidency, with a surprise last-minute candidate from the Canadian Empire Party, Emilio Sanchez. Koolmanjack won, though Emilio received a large number of votes due to a CEP attempt at a political takeover that he was not aware of. At this time, Citizen B joined the DAL and subsequently convinced hundreds of new members to join. The DAL quickly grew to be the third largest party in Canada, behind the Canadian Social Democrats and the Canadian Empire Party. The party is considered instrumental in getting current Prime Minister, Jacobi, elected, despite the fact the the party officially supported Andrew Mendelson. In July, Citizen B easily defeated his opponents who had never made any official or unofficial presentation, and the DAL shot up to four hundred members, easily becoming first in Canada.
Current
After the French occupation of Canada the party was renamed Ligue de l'Action Democratique. Many of its members from Canada were elected into congress. In late August, after Alberta had been retaken by Canada, Scorpius, elected Party President by forum vote, recreated the DAL in Canada. Although they had less than a week to prepare for the congress elections, the DAL gained fourteen seats of the forty-seven, making it second in Canada.
