The Imperial Democratic Party (IDP), colloquially known as the Democrats or the Imperial Democrats (IDP), is an Aldricist liberal-conservative and civic nationalist political party in the Imperial Republic of Shireroth, founded in 1660 AN. Since its founding by the Steward and Regent Hartmut Aldric, Duke of Calezi in 1660 AN, it has contested many elections for the Folksraad and the Adlesraad of Shireroth, serving as the leading governing party or a party that is part of a governing coalition several times through out Shireroth's history. After the Kalirion Fracture in 1671 AN, the Imperial Democratic Party served as either leading party of governance or as part of the governing coalition led by Steward and Regent of Shireroth, Chrysostom Wythe, from 1680 AN-1718 AN, alongside the Imperial Order and the Kezan Joint List.
The main ideology of the Imperial Democratic Party of Shireroth is Aldricism, which is constructed around the policies and writings of Steward and Regent Hartmut Aldric, Duke of Calezi, during the early to mid 1660s in Shireroth. Aldricism in the IDP is a liberal-conservative ideology that focuses on the expansion of individual human rights and freedoms; economic liberalization, free trade, and privatization; civic nationalism; "a balanced role for government involvement in the economy"; internationalism; and cosmopolitanism. Since the Kalirion Fracture, the Imperial Democratic Party survived in Ransenar with the same name, and in Elwynn as the now defunct Democratic Party. Of all of the existing Aldricist parties (as of 1713 AN, the Imperial Democratic Party of Shireroth is considered to be the most conservative. Lord Holly-Wythe, the Steward of Shireroth (1680–1718), was the leader of the IDP until he resigned his membership in the IDP in 1674 AN.
