2008

 * Only PCP and OC represented in congress.

 * Of 2007 parties, only LCP and LDP (inactive) are still alive to contest 2010 elections.
 * LD forms, from several ex-F1 members.
 * LOWIA forms, from several ex-OC members led by Oos Wes Ilava.
 * NSP and PCP merge into PD.
 * WLP founded (get rid of short previous existence Liberal Party).
 * Problem: WLP is takaviki.

2010

 * WLP, PD (center-left alliance), LD all get three seats. LOWIA one, LCP one.
 * LCP disbands with AMD's death and/or resignation.
 * This leads to PD becoming CPL.nm. A significant minority dislike this and become independents (Jefferson). LD drifts rightward in opposition?
 * WLP becomes Walden as usual. CCPL forms.
 * Mid-terms: same. NLS ends up merging into CPL.nm, and LLCP into Walden.
 * LD lasts until November with Latin's shakeup of politics. LU never forms.
 * LAP and UNS form in December.

2011

 * MCP forms, but can't receive seats. Erase PCP (Christian) from existence.
 * Walden decides to disband, as McCandless resigns from politics and Van Ghent has emigrated.
 * Abrahams forms the SDP.
 * The LDP reforms into the LDP (:o). No merger, just a rebranding.
 * Provisional Congress forms, same composition as usual.
 * PCP forms. CNP and PL form. Other minor parties, some of which formed to contest the elections, and others that had existed previously (like 7) These parties have the same composition in Congress like currently.
 * After the CPL.nm schism, don't create the SPP. Just have them be independents until that bloc and the SDP agree to form the Labour Party.
 * From then on I'm the current history for the most part.

Changes
Get rid of a few "I'll take this minor party and change it up a bunch" and replace them with just founding a new party. Main change is to revise LD a bit and remove LU, simplifying the 2nd LDP's formation. Get rid of SPP.
