	The Lotus Party's strongest area of support remains in Charlia and Southern Kasiki. Its largest demographics are urban voters, college graduates, kalis, and queer people. In the past, the party's social policies included Azkalophobia, segregation between Kaneeds and Kalis, Kali disenfranchisement, and later Azkali genocide, subjugation, and enslavement. The economic policies of the party have remained fairly consistent throughout the existence of the party, following a democratic socialist variant referred to by the party as Ukilen Socialism. Between 1977 and 2005, the party's goals also included Baphian revanchism and expansionism, which consisted of the proposed incorporation of, and eventual invasion and attempted colonization of Azkali into the Ukilen Union. The party was responsible for the First Bapho-Azkali War and ensuing genocide and enslavement of Azkalis, with then Lotus Party Leader and Yamahati Senator Enik Hansin having drafted the Azkali Plan alongside Abari Norle.

	== ~~Political positions~~ ==		== Platform and ideology ==
			The Lotus Party is a decisively left wing party, with centre-left and far-left factions.

			=== Economic issues ===
			The Lotus Party's economic policies have been based on socialist tendencies throughout most of the party's existence which it describes as [[Ukilen Socialism]].

			'''1966-1975'''

			Between 1966 and 1975, the Lotus Party used the terminology of Ukilen Socialism to define it's economic policy. In practice, Ukilen Socialism essentially consisted of [[Isithipsism-Ipraksism]] ideology and practice. Nearly all members of the party in government public ally supported raising the minimum wage; encouraged the spread of worker cooperatives; advocated for a universal basic income and state subsidization of healthcare, education, and housing; of taxing the rich more heavily; and the increase of funding into social services towards Ukilen Union citizens. In addition, the Lotus Party advocated for environmentalism and the usage of renewable energy and eventual phasing out of the usage of fossil fuels, though these beliefs varied significantly by faction.

			'''1975-2005'''

			Starting in 1975 with Dravi Gamalag's 1975 election campaign, the Lotus Party began a dramatically fiscally-conservative transition, in time with the coordination of Baphian companies and [[Lagajai Memo\|organizations for the invasion of Azkali]]
