The Republican Party was one of the starting parties of the AmericanGovSim. It began representing the real life US Republican Party, but evolved into a broader centre right party as the simulation went on.
History
User Elevic began as party chairman, with users Kovr and _hedgehog_1 as Vice Chairman. User System then joined the party, and gained the third position of Vice Chairman.
Monarchist Negotiations
System entered negotiations with the Monarchists, at the time led by user Colourful_Future, to merge the Republicans and Monarchists. A group chat on Discord was formed, and swiftly turned into a heated negotiation. The Monarchists proposed that the Republicans join their server, and in exchange will be given some leaedership positions, while Colourful_Future retained his power as King. Screenshots from an insider in the Monarchist Party revealed that Colourful_Future's objective was to integrate the Republicans into the Monarchists, where they would be controlled. Colourful_Future assured fellow Monarchist Party members that the incoming Republican Party would have no effective control.
Due to this, _hedgehog_1 called a VONC against System. After a short discussion, and posting of the screenshots, the vote has held and System lost the vote 3-1(System was the only vote against). He subsequently left the party, and the merge did not occur.
Internal Conflict
A user known as Rebel(though he changed his username multiple times throughout the simulation, including, infamously, Himmler) then got into contact with the Republicans. He filled the vacant position left by System's departure.
Elevic, as Chairman, faced a Vote of No Confidence(VONC) called by _hedgehog_1, and subsequently lost the vote 3-1 (Elevic was the only vote against). Kovr then became Chairman of the Republican Party. Elevic then joined the Monarchist Party.
An ally of Rebel's, NapoloenBorn2Party, then filled the vacant position left by Elevic. The next day, another VONC was called against the Chairman, Kovr, on the grounds of inactivity in the party and sim. Kovr lost the vote 3-1(Kovr was the only vote against), and then _hedgehog_1 became Chairman of the Republican Party, with Rebel and NapoleonBorn2Party as Vice Chairman.
Rebranding
After the internal situation had stabilized, _hedgehog_1 and the Vice Chairman took the decision to re-brand the party. The Republican Party became the United Right, with a new logo and manifesto. Due to these events happening at the very beginning of AGS, there remains little record of these events due to the old Republican server being lost, group chats being closed, and the Monarchist server being lost.
Return to Roots and Downfall
After the fall of the United Right the new Chairman, System, re-branded the party back to its roots, the GOP. Following the re-branding of the party the Deputy Chairman did not like the deals System was doing. He negotiated with the Libertarians which was not received well among the Deputies and they in turn attempted a coup and left to create their own fascist party. After this System was removed from power and chairmanship was given to The Eye. Not much is known to what happened while he was leader, all we know is that he merged the party with the Monarchists in exchange for a leadership position.
The Know Nothing Split
During the presidency of Politophile, The party was going through a period of relative calm. However, a far-right user called Da_Fish was unsatisfied with the center-right leanings of the party and began an effort to create a new, "far-right" party, called the Know-Nothing Party. The Know Nothings, before even officially established, began buying large plots of land in places around the country, such as Louisiana and Vermont. Having obtained this land, they began building large "forts", presumably as political headquarters. This fort building effort was preceded by an effort to buy the Vermont Governor's Mansion, which was struck down by the governor at the time. It has since been turned into a Bernie Sanders museum. However, under intense pressure for the party's far-right leanings and the fear of a conservative vote split, one by one parties began rejecting the idea of the Know-Nothing Party and especially Da_Fish himself. This lead to the party eventually militarizing in what became known by some as The Vermont Uprising.
