The Democratic-Progressive Party, formerly the American Liberal Party the American Liberal Coalition, and the Social Democratic Party was a left-wing political party founded in February of 2020 as an alternative to the Labor Party. It covered a wide ideological tent of progressive liberalism, moderate left-libertarianism and social democracy.

At the time of its dissolution, the DPA controlled the House of Representatives (In coalition with the Global Labour Party), the Governorships of the North and Dixie, and the Jefferson Parliament (In coalition with the Global Labor Party).

The DPA was the longest running party on AGS, running for a total of 526 days before dissolution. It was beat by the Libertarian-Republican Party which remains the current longest.

Founding

The American Liberal Party was initially founded by James Order, John Darby, Bruce Hill, Tedd Ddet and MediocreLucca. These five made up the original ALNC with James Order as the Director and John Darby as the Vice Director. It was created due to the impending death of the Labor Party to provide the public with an alternative left-wing party in the American political system. They quickly began gaining ground in terms of membership when John Darby took a sudden leave of public life. This left Bruce Hill with the position of Vice Director. As they were gearing up for the federal elections, the ALP began making up ground converting current members of legislative bodies and winning special elections.

American Liberal Coalition

Under a review of the party constitution, the Director at the time, James Order, made amendments to make the Party a coalition of three distinct caucuses. This occurred during the April state election. The three caucuses became the Libertarian Caucus, Moderate Caucus and Progressive Caucus. After the departure of James Order the Libertarian Caucus folded.
