Bibshmibbian Liberal Party

The Bibshmibbian Liberal Party was a party created to combat the rise of communism inside Bibshmibbian politics. It was founded by Radioblade Jr, also known as Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea, on the 30th of March 2022, and follows the political ideology of Economic Liberalism. It believes in the right of one's freedom being placed above all else. It also believes in capitalist aspects of politics such as a high focus on economic growth and supporting business within and out with Bibshmibbia.

Emancipation Of Bibshmibbia
After the controversial merging of the Zamotz Union and Aristios to form Zamotz-Aristios the many of the Zamotz Union's provinces emancipated themselves from what used to be the Zamotz Union and reformed the nation of Bibshmibbia. The two most prominent of these provinces being Nova Bibshmibbia and Kolnor. These two provinces operated under one primary government which would hold an election to choose which political ideology and governing style would suit them best on the 5th of April 2022. Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea (One of Kolnor's political leaders) who at the time didn't intend to run for the election wasn't sure how long this unsteady government would last. He predicted that Kolnor would declare its sovereignty not too long after the forming of the nation. However after a meeting with other Kolnor officials the general opinion was that Kolnor would stay with Bibshmibbia for at least another month.

Rise of Communism In Bibshmibbia
Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea before didn't intend to vote due to a lack of investment into the nation, now had a reason to care. As if Kolnor intended to stay with Bibshmibbia, he wanted it to be a steady and stable nation to govern. He looked through the selection of political parties such as the CCP (Cheese Confederation Party and the BCP (Bibshimmbian Communist Party). After seeing rising support for a communist movement Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea decided to seek a meeting with the party's leader, who argued "My communist party is different. I will be using communist the way it should be used", to discuss what his "better" version of communism would entail. He disagreed with the structure of the  hypothetical government the BCP had explained to him. He seen the BCP as "criminally unaware" and was angered that they would have a chance to run the nation. They ignored the fact that Kolnor's national religion, the Stone Path, was an inherently capitalist religion and that Kolnor was religiously capitalist. When Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea confronted them with this information they stated, "Then we will allow them to be capitalist." This made Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea fully convinced that the BCP did not have the political knowledge nor the political experience. The statement emphasised just how flawed this system of government would be if the BCP were allowed to take power. He doubted that the BCP could implement a communist and capitalist government into Bibshmibbia. After a heated debate over why his version of communism wouldn't work Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea knew that if he wanted to ensure communism didn't rise he would need to take matters into his own hands.

Liberal Party's Founding
On the 30th of March 2022 Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea decided to create a party called the Bibshmibbian Liberal Party as a combatant of rising communist ideology in Bibshmibbia. It would value one's freedom above all else which he believed that the BCP didn't focus on enough. It would also be very capitalist to adhere to the religiously capitalist Kolnor byfollowing the political ideology of Economic Liberalism. Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea developed the motto "Freedom is Progress" and drafted up a simple logo; the parties name enveloped in two red lines, each line representing one of the two states; Nova Bibshmibbia and Kolnor. At this time another leader of Kolnor decided to join the run as well creating the BEZTC Party (Bibshmibbian East Zamotz Trading Company Party) as another party. The BEZTC shared similar ideals to the BLP (Bibsmibbian Liberal Party) such as their emphasis on maintaining capitalism and being anti-communist.

The CCP Campaign Interference
During a BLP campaign on the 3rd of April 2022, the CCP silenced the BLP representative by restricting what could be said about the CCP by the public. The CCP destroyed BLP propaganda and denied any involvement when the BLP's member's tried to make this information public. They asked the BLP representatives to provide proof and since it was already destroyed the BLP was unable to provide any. The BLP's leader Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea was legally warned for "Speaking out against the CCP" by the Bibshmibbian government. After this he was told personally by the Cheese Lord Ashren, who was a leader of the Cheese Confederation Party that his attempts were futile and nobody could stop them.Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea decided to lay low until the next day and prepare his final campaigning push to attempt to overthrow the CCP.

The BLP Negotiations With The BCP
On the 4th Of March 2022, the last day before the election the parties made their final announcements of what their ideals and changes would be. Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea drafted up his statement on behalf of the Bibshmibbian Liberal Party. After it was complete he made his announcement. He hoped that this could win over the votes of the public, or at least take them away from the CCP. After this announcement Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea began to start a separate lobbying campaign. He began negotiations for the potential support from the BLP's greatest enemy, the (Bibshimmbian Communist Party). He sought a meeting with it's leader at midnight to discuss having the BCP's supporters vote for the BLP, not for the guarentee of Bibshmibbian economic freedom but to keep the CCP at bay. The BCP wanted to merge but Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea knew that merging parties which were polar opposites was impossible. He struggled to explain this to the BCP as they had a misunderstanding of what the Liberal movement stood for. The BLP had a strict policy of not merging with them. After a long discussion Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea managed to secure the BCP parties votes. The alliance meant that at the end of the election after the votes were counted, the BCP's voted would be transferred over to the BLP if the CCP was in the lead. This made it so the parties could still be separate but united at the same time. He then made the announcement. Yatuka Lhamaj’i-Olea had done everything he could. Now all he could do was wait until the results were released. He prayed that above all else the CCP would not be in power.
