History

The seeds of the political entity that would eventually become the ADP were sown in 2013 when the Hasanistan Independence Party (HSIP) emerged onto the political landscape. Initially founded as the Hasanistan Independence Party, it was conceived as an all-encompassing Hasani party under the leadership of Shady Morsi. During its early days, the HSIP mirrored the then-existing Hasanistan Secessionist Party, positioning itself as the right-wing counterpart to this political force. The HSIP was also more populist than the HSP

The HSIP made its debut on the electoral stage in Batyr in 2013, not only participating in local elections but also making its presence felt in the Presidential elections of that year. However, the political landscape underwent a significant transformation when Shady Morsi relocated to North Hasanistan, the most economically disadvantaged region of the country. This move marked a pivotal shift in the HSIP's identity, transforming it from an all-encompassing Hasani party into an exclusive Northern party, with a heightened focus on the concerns and issues faced by the residents of North Hasanistan.

In 2016, a rebranding initiative took place, and the party underwent a significant name change, adopting the title of the Northern League/Ardajani Democrats. Despite the dual nomenclature, the latter part of the name, Ardajani Democrats, saw limited usage in practical terms. Consequently, the political entity became commonly referred to simply as the Northern League.

This name change was not merely a superficial alteration; it signified a broader ideological and strategic shift within the party. The adoption of the name Northern League emphasized the party's dedication to the interests and aspirations of the Northern region. The move also indicated a departure from the original secessionist orientation, emphasizing a more nuanced and inclusive approach to regional politics.

As the Northern League evolved, it continued to navigate the intricate landscape of Hasanistan's political arena, seeking to address the unique challenges faced by the Northern population. The transformation from the Hasanistan Independence Party to the Northern League/Ardajani Democrats exemplifies the dynamic nature of political entities, adapting to the ever-changing socio-political environment in pursuit of their objectives.

The party's later incarnation emerged as a result of a merger between the Northern League and the unregistered political entity known as AUFNS (Ardajan Unregistered Front for National Salvation). This strategic alliance aimed to consolidate political influence in the region and solidify the party's position as a formidable force.

However, on December 10, 2021, the Democratic Party of Ardajan formally dissolved. The dissolution was attributed to several factors, including waning interest in Ardajani regionalism, President Shady Morsi's aspiration to engage more actively in federal politics, and a decline in the representation of Ardajani nationals within Hasanistan.

Ideology

Originally, the Hasanistan Independence Party (HSIP) emerged as a right-wing counterpart to the HSP/Nomad Party, positioning itself as a more populist alternative. Central to the party's agenda was a fervent desire for Hasanistan to establish its independent currency, challenging the status quo of relying on the Kazakh Tenge as the official medium of exchange. The HSIP argued that the use of the Tenge tethered Hasanistan to the Kazakh economy, fostering a dependency that compromised the nation's autonomy.

In stark contrast, the NL/ADP initially operated primarily as a regionalist party, concentrating its efforts solely on Ardajan elections. Despite its nationalist roots, the party underwent a significant transformation in 2018, veering towards a more moderate stance characterized by a heightened regional focus and a pro-Batyr orientation. Until 2021, the NL/DPA refrained from publishing an official party or electoral manifesto, instead relying on announcements from its leader, Morsi, which closely mirrored historical HSIP positions. The party's overarching objective was articulated as the construction of a "socially just and environmentally responsible" Ardajan. Embracing the concept of the Third Republic, the NL/DPA supported this framework, citing its potential to afford Ardajan greater autonomy.

Interestingly, the NL/DPA initially resisted merging with Pavlov, but following Hasanistan's amalgamation with Pavlov, the party adopted an unexpected stance. Instead of challenging Pavlovian rule, the NL/DPA embraced it, a surprising shift from its prior position. The party sought a separate seat for Ardajan in Konmalehth, drawing inspiration from the representation of the Ukrainian and Belorussian SSRs in the UN.

Economically, the NL/DPA was characterized by extremely libertarian policies, with some observers even likening it to anarcho-capitalism. The party expressed skepticism toward state intervention in the economy, particularly through high taxes, which it believed would impede private initiative. Additionally, the NL/DPA opposed excessive spending on subsidies, maintaining a stance that emphasized minimal government interference in economic affairs. Despite its economic focus, the party's other demands lacked strong ideological coherence, reflecting a pragmatic approach to governance.

Relationship with other parties

The contentious relationship between the Hasanistan Independence Party and the Progressive Party marked a tumultuous period in Hasani politics. The Progressive Party's staunch opposition to Ardajani autonomy became a focal point of discord, with HSIP deputies often resorting to walking out of parliamentary sessions when Progressive Party members took the floor. This deep-seated animosity eventually escalated to the extreme measure of banning the Progressive Party in Ardajan, underscoring the intensity of the political feud. Not limited to inter-party conflicts, the HSIP also found itself at odds with ideologies such as Eniakism and the original Islamic Party. These ideological differences further fueled the political landscape, contributing to an atmosphere of polarization and competition within Hasanistan. Morsi infamously insulted Muhammet Ali as a "kafir in the clothes of the ummah" during a parliamentary session

In an unexpected turn of events, the HSIP took a strategic step by forming an alliance with the Nomad Party, a move that would significantly impact the political landscape. The Unity Alliance, established on April 25, 2018, brought together the HSIP and the Nomad Party under a joint platform. This alliance not only reshaped the dynamics of Hasanistan politics but also paved the way for a significant electoral victory. as Shady Morsi as his running mate, Çakar was elected unopposed in the 2018 Hasani presidential election. It also worked mainly with Hasan's other parties such as the HSP in 2016 the HSIP and the HSP merged to form the Idealist Party of Hasanistan
