Popular Alliance (San Marino)
- Popular Alliance (San Marino)
The Popular Alliance ("Alleanza Popolare", AP) is a liberal political party in San Marino.
AP was born as an anti-establishment party in 1993, in parallel with the rise of Lega Nord in Italy, of which it has been long considered the Sanmarinese counterpart, but has since then become a stable political force in San Marino, participating to governments both with the centre-right Sammarinese Christian Democratic Party (PDCS) and the left-wing Party of Socialists and Democrats (PSD) since 2002.
In the 2006 general election the party won 12.1% of the vote and 7 out of 60 seats in the Grand and General Council, making it the third largest party of the country. In 2008 after the breaking-up of the governing coalition, due to the rising clashes between AP and United Left, under the new electoral system, the party decided to join PDCS in the centre-right Pact for San Marino coalition for the 2008 general election.
