Peace 'n' Prosperity Party
The Peace 'n' Prosperity Party (PnPP) was founded by Thingol on October, 6th 2010. As oldest party in New Zealand, it has remained one of the most active and involved parties. It experienced a membership surge in mid-2011, becoming the biggest political party in NZ, notably after the decline of its rival Aotearoa. It has led five NZ governments and has had Parliamentary representation since its creation.
Ujedinjenje ili smrt
The Ujedinjenje ili smrt (UIS) is a political party founded by leading members of the Serbian Kiwi Military unit, Srpski Korpus. It was formed as one of the successor parties to the defunct Aotearoa party. The party has historically supported members of the MU in Parliamentary and Presidential elections. It has close ties to the party Love and Peace and its predecessors. The party has led two NZ governments and been represented in various Cabinets and Parliament since its creation.
Love and Peace
Love and Peace (L&P) was created by Helen Moon in September, 2011. Moon was a veteran military figure in NZ and had been a prominent figure in the former Red label Party (RLP). As a successor party to Aotearoa, the RLP had played an influential role during its existence. However, it began to decline, becoming eclipsed by its sibling,Ujedinjenje ili smrt (UIS). It was during this time that Moon founded L&P. The party absorbed the old RLP membership and has led one NZ government. The party has performed well in recent Parliamentary elections and has created ties with both the PnPP and UIS.
eNZ Democratic Party
The eNZ Democratic Party (DP) is a political party, serving as the political home for the Serbian Military unit, Templari Srbije (TS). The party is seen as the successor to Crocus Valley, a pre-approved party for the TS, made be fellow Serbian parties UIS and L&P. After some months, the TS members sought complete control and launched the DP as their new political home. The party has relatively good ties with the other parties but has not been a significant factor in NZ politics.
Ranginui
Ranginui is a left-wing party that serves as the political home for the Slovenia Military unit, the Angry Angels. The party has historically been a major force in NZ politics, consistently winning 7-8 seats in Parliament, serving in Cabinet and supporting winning CP's. However, thanks to the AA shifting back to Slovenia, its membership has declined swiftly. The party is now on the fringes of the top-five, being the smallest, and is capable of winning 1-2 seats at the best. It has ties with all three major parties (PnPP, L&P,UIS). Recently, it has become closer to the PnPP.
Red Squad
Red Squad (RS) is a communist political party in New Zealand. The party has traditionally adhered to a left-wing ideology and draws much of its membership from the Serbia and Slovenia communities. The party has typically supported the Presidential candidates of Love and Peace and Ujedinjenje ili smrt (UIS). Due to its small membership, it has limited Parliamentary success and is generally seen as being marginal in NZ's political scene.
