The United Green (UG) is the largest and leading political party in Çakaristan. The party emerged after the inclusion of Haritdesh ahead of the 1691 elections. The party focused on uniting conservative and right-wing factions under one party. "Green" in the party's name indicates its original field of activity, the areas that belonged to The Green before 1687 AN. The white tiger on the party logo refers to Çakaristan's first National Animal.
The ideology of the party is mainly conservative, but there are also elements of libertarianism and neoconservatism. The party is strongly supportive of the monarchy. One wing of the party calls itself Vinandist, support for the House of Vinandy, of which House of Alsalam is a junior branch, on the Throne. An unorganised faction are supportive of House of Çakar.
The party supported Çakaristan's membership to the Union of States around the Sovereign Oceans, which later became the Collective Security Association. When that organisation fell, the party's opinion changed to an independent and sovereign vision for the nation. This was founded on a deep opposition to the Raspur Pact.
History
Within months of its formation, the party participated in the 1691 AN elections, which were won with an absolute majority. As a result, the party also delivered its first elected Grand Vizier, Jayanti Sinha. The party has had support mainly west of the Green Border since this election. This has seen the party expand to Kendall Khanate. In other states, support for the party is smaller.
Jayanti Sinha played a crucial role in the continuation of the Great Apollonian Empire as Çakar Empire. This earned the party a leading position in the new state system under the Akbar Constitution. The party did lose support among Craitists as the bond between the State and Religion widened. Formally, religion already had no role in state governance, but among other things, the national motto was no longer the creed of Craitism.
