Volkia has been structured as a {{Wp|multi-party democracy}} since its establishment in 1888, however it has been ruled by the [[Social Democratic Union]] since 1973. For elective offices at most levels, each province administers primary elections in order to choose the major party nominees for the following general election. There are currently six parties represented in the [[National Assembly of Volkia|National Assembly]] but only four parties have held the office of the [[President of Volkia|presidency]]: the [[Conservative Party (Volkia)|Conservative Party]] (5), [[Liberal Party (Volkia)|Liberal Party]] (5), [[Socialist Labor League]] (2), and the Social Democratic Union (7). [[Aleksey Pushkarev]], the first president, has been the only president not affiliated with a political party. The president, federal councilors, and people's deputies are chosen by instant run-off voting while lower level elective officers are chosen by a plurality vote in their electoral district.

While the Social Democratic Union is considered dominant in Volkian politics, there are still strongholds of other political parties. [[Southern Volkia]] is widely considered to be a Social Democrat stronghold, while [[Northern Volkia]] tends to lean towards the Conservative Party and Monarchist Union. The west heavily supports Liberal candidates, though Social Democratic, Socialist, and Green candidates are often ranked highly on ballots from [[Western Volkia|the western provinces]].
