The 2020 Vistari General Election was the first General Election of the [[Vistaraland|Imperial Vistari Confederation]] following the ratification of the Second Constitution by the Vistari Interim Government, seeing the victory of the previously appointed First Minister, [[Allard Baas]] as his party led a three-way coalition of Centre Right-Right Wing Parties, granting Baas the title of First Prime Minister of the Confederation. The election saw the first time a United Parliament was called to represent the entirety of the remaining territories of the Vistari Empire, with many calling it the first time the nation has had a Representative Democracy. |

The prelude to the election was the disillusion of the vastly unpopular Degrellezoon Ministry at the order of the Empress on the grounds of the documented abuses of Anton, Grand Duke of Aisera. The ministry used the death of the Grand Duke of Haliban and self-granted emergency powers in what is known as "The Informal Dictatorship". When this government was eventually dismissed on the 2nd of December, an interim government was appointed led by [[Allard Baas]], both to ratify the Second Constitution and to organize the upcoming election to be held on the 25th, leading to the election becoming informally referred to as "An Ademar's Mass Miracle." |

The political parties of Vistaraland saw a large shift in the December Period, with infighting amongst the Royal Conservatives and the collapse of the Ademarist Democrats giving rise to the New Democratic Ademarist Party, made up of Alwin Hake's faction of the RCP as well as the more moderate members of the former ADP. The remainder of the ADP fell under the influence of Arend Achen, forming the openly Clerical-Fascist Ademar's Wil party. Factionalism on the left occurred too, with the legalisation of Social Democratic, Socialist and Communist organisations giving rise to the Cooperative Workers' Party, the formerly banned Popularists and the Revolutionary Labour Party. These new parties sought to reap the benefits of the now more fairly enfranchised Working Class, with the so-called "elitist politicians" of the old parties being heavily criticised by the now more mainstream Vistari Left. |

As such, the election marked the formation of a considerably more powerful lower house, entirely comprising members elected by proportional representation across all constituent countries of the Imperial Vistari Confederation.

The election saw the victory of the previously appointed First Minister, [[Allard Baas]], with the Imperial Conservative Party forming a dominant alliance with the Libertarian Party: the [[Joint List (Vistaraland)|Joint List]]. Whilst unable to gain an equivalent portion of the legislature that was established under the system of the Imperial Advisory Council, the Joint List took a dominant role in government negotiations, bringing together a majority comprising parties both in the centre and the political right. This coalition, made up of the Joint List, Civic Alliance, Moral Ademarist Centre, New Democratic Vierist Party and National Liberal Alliance Party, represented a reaffirmation of the dominance of the established political forces of conservatism, economic liberalism and political Ademarism in Vistari politics. |

Despite this, the presence of a significant opposition of left-leaning parties for the first time showed the emergence of a broader political spectrum which allowed for the success of previously suppressed working-class and anti-imperialist movements - with the socially-democratic [[Cooperative Worker's Party]] heading the Formal Opposition under a platform of previously-unfeasible economic reforms towards a mixed economy. |

While separatist parties failed to reach the popularity many had expected of them, in the wake of the previously rampant political instability, the [[Verk'ohist Unity Front|Salovian Party of K'undzeti]] found a notable amount of success within the Grand Dominion, ushering in the establishment of an independence referendum in [[Wescernia]] that led to the breaking away of part of the territory to form an independent [[K'undzeti]]. |

On 25 December 2020, a general election was held in Vistaraland in accordance with the mandate of the Second Vistari Constitution. The election was the first to elect members of the newly-created Imperial Parliamentary Council, functioning to succeed the previously partially-elective Imperial Advisory Council.
As such, the election marked the formation of a considerably more powerful lower house, entirely comprising members elected by proportional representation across all constituent countries of the Imperial Vistari Confederation. In addition, the Constitution, which established the electoral system, allowed for a much wider array of political parties than was previously permitted - with separatist, republican and socialistic parties represented for the first time.
The election saw the victory of the previously appointed First Minister, Allard Baas, with the Imperial Conservative Party forming a dominant alliance with the Libertarian Party: the Joint List. Whilst unable to gain an equivalent portion of the legislature that was established under the system of the Imperial Advisory Council, the Joint List took a dominant role in government negotiations, bringing together a majority comprising parties both in the centre and the political right. This coalition, made up of the Joint List, Civic Alliance, Moral Ademarist Centre, New Democratic Vierist Party and National Liberal Alliance Party, represented a reaffirmation of the dominance of the established political forces of conservatism, economic liberalism and political Ademarism in Vistari politics.
Despite this, the presence of a significant opposition of left-leaning parties for the first time showed the emergence of a broader political spectrum which allowed for the success of previously suppressed working-class and anti-imperialist movements - with the socially-democratic Cooperative Worker's Party heading the Formal Opposition under a platform of previously-unfeasible economic reforms towards a mixed economy.
