The Social Democratic Party of Floria is a centre-left social-democratic political party in Floria and is one of the two major parties of modern-day Floria replacing its troubled predecessor the Labour Party.
The SPD was established in 1706 and holds Pro-Apollonian stances and is an advocate of greater cooperation with Floria's neighbouring nations and healthier relations with the XC. The party holds some similarities with the Social Democratic and Liberal Alliance of Nouvelle Alexandrie however does not recognise the ideals of Aldricism.
Since the election of Michael Hutchinson, the party’s popularity gradually declined and in 1733, it lost its major status effectively making Floria temporarily a De facto one-party state. However, in 1734 the party saw a comeback with a mission to "restore Florian democracy", it achieved its objective and gained enough traction to activate a snap Presidential election in 1739. Party Chairwoman Adams ran for election and almost won the Presidency and if successful would have become the first female SDP politician to serve as President.
Following the election, the party experienced a surge in momentum and has since gained popularity in certain states, particularly in Kingsland and San Alexandria. These cities, which are more progressive than the average in Floria, have become strongholds for the party. Politicians like Imogen Walsh and Lauren Mills have played a significant role in elevating the party’s popularity through social media and by adopting ideologies that advocate for greater rights for women, the youth, and the LGBT+ community.
The party’s base of support is predominantly among urban voters, minorities, union workers, college students, women, the LGBT+ community, and unmarried individuals. On social issues, the party advocates for federal abortion rights, voting rights, LGBT rights, climate change action, and the decriminalization of marijuana. In economic matters, the party supports healthcare reform, universal childcare, paid sick leave, and union support. In foreign policy, the party upholds internationalism and maintains positive stances towards Shireroth and the XC.
