The Cappedorite Social Democratic Party, nationally known as the Social Democratic Party and commonly abbreviated to the CSDP (or SDP in Cappedore) is a left-wing social democratic political party in Cappedore. It is the largest party in the Federal Council and Gemotern, and is also the knwon political party of the Cappedorite president, Austin Merrill. The SDP has been in control of the Cappedorite government since 2005, beginning with Keir Crosland as its first Chancellor, continuing to the present day with Maya Murray as the party's incumbent general secretary and the current Chancellor of Cappedore since 2018.
The party was founded in 1899, having grown out of the trade union movement and socialist parties of the 19th century. By the 1910s, it was one of the primary contenders for the position of president, and eventually overtook the Liberal Union as the Conservative Union's main contender for the position after the 1919 presidential election, with its candidate Tristan Rowntree nearly winning over the Libertarian Party.
Rowntree would go on to succeed in the 1924 presidential election, and become Cappedore's first CSDP president. Since his election, the battle over the position of president has been solely between the Social Democrats and the Conservatives, with smaller parties falling significantly behind in third place.
After the 1990 Great Reform Act, the CSDP was registered as a legitimate party to contend for the Gemotern.
