Party Name: Íhaldsflokkurinn | Conservative Party
Party Colours: blue, red, white
Political views of the party: Classical conservative, right of centre, monarchist, social conservatism (some factions), pragmatism (some factions)
Number of seats in the Alþingi: 62/214
Other notes: Formed from supporters of the Crown dating back to conflicts in the 14th century, and has a claim to being Prydania's oldest party (though some of the Free Democratic Party's forerunner groups are just as old). Traditional big tent conservative party with multiple factions within it. Was part of the FNU during the Civil War. Former leader William Aubyn served as the political leader of the FNU and served as the Prime Minister during the interim government following the Crown's restoration in the person of King Tobias III. Currently led by Sören Högh. Courts the right wing vote in cities, suburbs, and large towns.
The Conservative Party runs on a joint ticket with the Agrarian Party as part of the Íhalds-Landbúnað Bandalag | Conservative-Agrarian Alliance. The joint alliance sits as one group in the Alþingi.

Party Name: Landbúnaðarflokkurinn | Agrarian Party
Party Colours: green, gold
Political views of the party: Agrarianism, localism, social feudalism, national sovereignty, monarchist, social conservatism (some factions)
Number of seats in the Alþingi: 27/214
Other notes: Formed as a party to represent farmers in the late 1800s, the Agrarian Party grew to represent the interests of the rural voters. They tend to support local autonomy, farmer-friendly economic polices, and environmental politics. This has led to an eclectic mix of conservative values, locally-minded politics, welfare state economic policies in agricultural sectors, and environmentalist policies. The party's growth in the early 20th century led to a chipping away of Conservative votes in the rural areas of Prydania. This led to the creation of the Conservative-Agrarian Alliance in the 1930s, which still stands to this day. The Agrarians contest votes in rural locales and small towns. They were part of the FNU during the Civil War. Their current leader, Tenna Nygaard, took control of the Alliance's Alþingi caucus following William Aubyn's resignation. She currently leads the Alliance, though for how long she can continue in the role with Søren Høgh in control of the senior coalition partner remains to be seen.

Party Name: Alþýðuflokkurinn | People's Party
Party Colours: red, gold, black, white
Political views of the party: social democracy (some factions), democratic socialism (some factions), social justice (some factions), left wing, constitutional monarchist
Number of seats in the Alþingi: 2/214
Other notes: Formed from moderate Syndicalists who were turned off by the Syndicalist Party's totalitarian leanings in the early days of the Syndicalist Republic. They did not formally join the FNU, but participated in anti-Syndicalist resistance none-the-less. Still, they have a lot of baggage to overcome and lack the longevity of the other parties that fought against Syndicalist tyranny. Only managed two seats in the first democratic Alþingi election following the end of the Civil War, but showing promising signs of growth. Led by Annie Gram.

Independents
Number of seats in the Alþingi:
1/214

**NOTE**
The Prydanian Alþingi is unicameral and contains both elected seats and Peer seats in the same chamber. As such the 30 Peer seats are unaccounted for in party totals above. Presently the Peers support the Free Democrats in forming a government, as they won the most seats out of any bloc in the 2018 election.
