Communist Party of Sakaria

The Communist Party of Sakaria (Filipino: Partido Komunista ng Sakaria Sakarian: Vimmymudy Ppaatyu ig Sakaria; also simply known as "CPS") is a communist party in Sakaria.

It was founded on January 19, 1978, after splitting with from the Revolutionary Workers Party of Sakaria which had increasingly grew supportive of the Sakarian Democratic Republic regime. Unlike the RWPS, CPS heavily opposed the SDR regime.

The party gained major support during the 1985 Sakarian Revolt from students and labor groups which were oppressed by the regime. CPS was one of the forces that fought with the government through its armed wings and was one of the major organisations/parties that led to the fall of the SDR.

Following the transition to a democracy in 1985 and the countrys first democratic elections in over 29 years, CPS went into coalition with other left wing parties, however did not support the liberaI Democratic Party which would later win the election later that year.

CPS once had a strong presence in the Sakarian government, with the party reaching its peak seats of 32 in the House of Representatives in 1997. However in recent years, the CPS had lost its support and was made even worse in the 2016 elections where CPS failed to win a single seat in both houses of the National Assembly. Despite this, political analysts and researchers project that CPS may rise up again and win seats in the National Assembly due to the extremely unpopular term of Christina Manuban.
