History
Established by the President as a party for the most rebellious of members of the National Government, the Democratic Labour Party of Arstotzka was created on December 1st 2019 as a part of the new political revival scheme under taken by the reformed National Government of the Arstotzkan Union. The party had minor support. It held two seats in the National Assembly and many requested it be disbanded or at least absorbed by the People's Party.

However by December 5th 2019, the party had began converting people over to the DLPA. However they had not managed to convert President Ethan Brinkman, Vice President Zion Ormsby and Minister of Transport Joshua Smith. On December 6th 2019, the President created the Arstotzkan National Summer Summit, which would act as a group that would run on behalf of the National Government but contain all members of the National Assembly. This aimed at communitcation during the 2019 - 2020 Summer Break in New Zealand. However by the late evening of December 6th the DLPA raided the group and then forced the President to resign in order to topple the Arstotzkan Union as a whole. On the night of December 9th 2019, the President declared the Arstotzkan Union had fallen for a second time. However it had not. It was at this time that the President and the upper cabinet had decided that the nation had fallen into a second war, this later becoming known as the Second Civil Conflict of the Arstotzkan Union. The President created the Underground Arstotzkan Summit or the Secret Arstotzkan Summit and that became the second National Assembly.

On Decmber 16th 2019, Ethan Brinkman announced to the cabinet the creation of Operation: Blue Shadow. It would become the first Military Operation in Arstotzkan History.
