The Kusari Empire Political Parties Records is a database of active political parties in the Reformed Empire of Kusari that have obtained the legal status to participate in public elections for governmental posts in the Civilian Cabinet of the Reformed Empire of Kusari.
All parties present in this registry, including Parties established during the Old Empire of Kusari, the Republic of Kusari regime, or new parties established during the current era, are all bound to recognize and operate under the directions of the Reformed Empire of Kusari structure, as delineated in the Official Broadcast of the Restoration of the Empire .
Standing the test of many centuries, our morals that showed no defect from the times of our earliest ancestors, combined with the high character of our people, Kusari set up an example for the whole of Sirius to follow. With the protection of our ancestors and the infinite wisdom of our Emperors, Kusari stood tall and mighty among all the other Houses.
Yet, we - Kusari people - had to face many difficulties:
The heavy losses in Bretonia and the Taus, the losses against the Gallic tyranny and the split of our nation
The troubles of re-uniting, the increase of instability and crime from within
The betrayal of our friends in Rheinland
The ongoing siege on Planet Tomioka
Tested by the gods, we had to give many of our heroes as sacrifices. The defense of our country came into question with every losing battle on the Bretonian front, with every Gallic Vessel deterred, with every Rheinländer who betrayed the friendship we enjoyed. Our nation overcame many crises, many more than ever before.
We have faced the tides of war many times, we shall never forget the heroes who stood vigil in the face of death, who fought for their home.
We shall never abandon them, the State Police, undermanned, underpaid, should receive the respect they deserve. Our mighty Imperial Navy shall remain strong.
We cannot answer our heroes, our sacrifices, in the afterlife, if we allowed ground for any factors weakening our Kusari. Corporate greediness, corruption and other disturbances have no place in Kusari, for we shall not accept these issues to risk the safety and future of our people.
We are bound with honor and tradition to protect our Kusari from the forces that seek to harm it from outside and inside. We vow to die before seeing the future of our children threatened. This is the Sunrise Party.
Despite our promises being centred on security matters, we are also concerned with the welfare of our people and are well aware of the fact that Kusari can not survive without its economy. Neither its citizens can live decently, without a good enough income.
Furthermore, our House can only survive with secured resources, allowing our defensive capabilities to be continuously restored and build up, and thus, allowing Law enforcers to ensure our economy prospers.
The preservation of this virtuous circle is what we aim for.
We are aware of our ambitious project, which will require all our citizens to be dutiful and ready to serve Kusari with joy in their hearts. We'll cherish with them their patriotism, their hard work, and their good will. Our community will rediscover their self-worth and their values, becoming happier, better and stronger themselves as they strive for a better Kusari together with their loved ones and fellow Kusarians.
In order to start our project, we believe in allowing more legal powers to our law enforcers, co-operation with the other house enforcers, and an increased spending on the protection measures especially for our civilians.
We promise to focus on these objectives:
An increase in military and police spending.
Re-instatement of capital punishment.
A Conscription act: to bolster our forces if the need arises.
A retired officers funding pool to honor their sacrifice for Kusari properly.
Legal provision for enforcers to set and alter legal policy based on threat assessment.
Legal provision allowing enforcers to seize assets and execute suspects as they see fit.
Every citizen trained, prepared and armed for planetary/station invasion defense purposes.
Enforce curfew in higher crime areas and increase patrols in those areas to ensure the peoples safety.
An increase in taxes for foreign financial bodies.
An increase in export tax on goods.
Legal restrictions on foreign shippers and companies, in addition to intensified border patrols.
An increase in public spending on specific educational sectors including: Personal defense, Health & well-being, Moral values, Military history, Traditional values.
Ensure a reliable series of contracts that will maintain and increase export of technologies and raw materials within realistic limits considering our own stockpiles.
We pledge to preserve Kusari culture through limiting work visas and preservation of Kusari only communities.
We vow to ensure that both Samura Heavy Industries and Kishiro Technologies would be held in equal measure and be encouraged through different means to cooperate strongly, thus ultimately putting an end to their struggle for dominance.
We aim to transfer Deshima to the State Police, acting as large staging ground to deter Libertorian criminals with greater effect and to serve as additional small-scale prison facility.
Putting a hold to the siege on Planet Tomioka by the Blood Dragons once and for all through sheer force to secure our vital food industry’s needs and establish stability in northern Kusari.
Enforcing Kusari’s claim on Planet Kurile and Planet Saigon, thus bolstering our economic strength and permitting the spread of Kusari’s greatness beyond current borders.
To summarize,
We aim to bring strength back to Kusari both in character and with military might.
We aim to bolster Kusari economy by exacting costs from foreigners who would exploit us.
We aim to limit the use of arms and strike craft amongst non-peacekeepers in order to decrease the amount of space faring criminals.
We aim to stabilize our economic assets and deter those standing in our nation’s way.
We humbly seek your support and your trust in us, so we can restore our Kusari to its lost nature with hard work and vigilance, learning from our past and building for our future.
Kusari Sunrise Party
For a proud Kusari, standing tall and mighty; expanding with the Heaven's will and the prayers of our ancestors.
The Honshū Unity Party first appeared in the year 821 A.S. on Planet Honshū as a regional party around the City of Awaji-shima. The Party was founded by a group of young men and women who saw their City suffering from all kinds of grievances; Criminality, Drug abuse, illegal Prostitution, mistreatment of women, racism and a lack of Police forces. In an attempt to remove any prior listed grievances, the young politicians went for the regional elections and immediately managed to get into the communal council. In a matter of three years they managed to make Awaji-shima and the surrounding communes to be a beautiful peaceful area on Honshū, flourishing and blooming in a time where Kusari was torn by internal conflicts. Encouraged by their voters they decided to go for the Kusari wide elections of the year 824 A.S. aiming to bring the same beautiful peace to the rest of Kusari. Their political agenda faced great success, granting them a share of 23,1% of votes.
Together with the Democratic Party of Kusari, the Honshū Unity Party formed the ruling Cabinet, providing several Minister spots up to this date. An already retired Minister provided by the Honshū Unity Party, is the former Minister in charge of Post-Imperial reconciliation - Noboru Higuchi, the man whose continued effort cleared the path to the re-unification of Kusari and the creation of the reformed Empire of Kusari.
Long term goals for Kusari:
1. The Honshū Unity Party aims for gender equality. This includes giving women in social, business and private life the same rights like men but also acknowledge sub-gender categories as genders and protect those by law. Sexual orientation and how a person see themselves, as well as genders should no longer make a difference in a new modern Kusari of harmonious growth and equality.
2. The Honshū Unity Party aims to encourage our great Keiretsu's to cooperate more closely together. Prime examples such as the "Komainu"-class Battlecruiser, the "Akegata"-class Heavy Transport and the infamous "Drone" Freighter show that the Keiretsu are capable of creating masterpieces if they work together. Beyond ship constructions, the Honshū Unity Party will encourage interweaving of industrial branches between the Keiretsu, boosting the economic cooperation and strengthening local economies through this.
3. The Honshū Unity Party will continue to pursue Kusari's continued economic growth by paving the way for large-scale economic cooperation and trade with our local neighbors, namely the Confederacy of Gallia, the Gas Miner Guild, the Independent Miner Guild, the Republic of Liberty and the currently in turmoil stuck Nation of Rheinland.
3.1. The Honshū Unity Party will approach the Gas Miner Guild to negotiate about the future of the war-torn Sigma-21 system and Planet Saigon. The Honshū Unity Party sees a continued positive relationship with the Gas Miner Guild as beneficial to Kusari's economy, especially in regards of the abundance of Uranium in the system as well as the possibility of new colonization, which will strengthen the deep bounds between Kusari and the Guild.
3.2 The Honshū Unity Party is and will pursue solutions to deal with the instability of the Nation of Rheinland with the key thought of keeping Kusari citizens safe and avoiding the free flow of goods to be harmed by the ongoing conflicts. The Honshū Unity Party alone follows no defined stance to the Imperial or Federal Rheinland Government.
4. In order to secure Kusari's stability towards outsiders, the Honshū Unity Party will follow the path of continuing the re-build and build-up progress of the Kusari Naval Forces.
5. The Honshū Unity Party aims to safeguard Kusari's cultural heritage by permitting the free choice of religion, the free pursue of traditions and introducing more in-depth history lessons at Kusari's schools. The Honshū Unity Party will only restrict traditions directly contradicting with laws and rights.
Short to middle term goals:
1. Continuation of building up a stronger presence of the Kusari State Police through additional financial resources. While the wounds of the civil war are mostly healed, ensuring the renewed stability to last must be a high priority.
2. Continue the task of establishing a more transparent government for Kusari's people, communal and planetary votes should be introduced on matters concerning the areas affected, such as but not solely:
Construction of new social housing, hospitals, schools and other regional infrastructure decisions for communal voting.
Environmental Protection for planet-wide voting.
3. The transfer of Deshima Station to the Kusari State Police. Bounty Hunters will be permitted to keep a contingent stationed on Deshima. Additionally, to serving as a new Outpost to the built-up State Police, Deshima Station shall serve as a small-scale production facility for interested Keiretsu or Zaibatsu, details to be handled following the transfer.
4. Engage into negotiations with the Gas Miner Guild about the future of Sigma-21.
5. Approach the Keiretsu, firstly Samura Heavy Industries, about the construction of vital production facilities in the Tottori system to make use of the planned Tradelane Network.
5.1 Additionally, the Honshū Unity Party wishes to encourage and support the colonization of Planet Miyazaki as a larger-scale colonization will benefit our damaged food economy in face of Planet Junyo’s ever decreasing fish population.
5.2 The Honshū Unity Party supports a large-scale counteraction to the Blood Dragon invasion in Nagano.
6. Increased investigations to prevent corruption within the current and future Kusari governments, with removal of culprits.
For over eight centuries Kusari has been a bastion of civilization within the Sirius community.
Having the lowest crime rate of all the great houses and fostering a deep respect towards one’s family and nation.
The citizens of Kusari stood proud of the accomplishments they had created and commanded respect from their neighbors on all sides.
Something has changed throughout the past decade.
The national pride once shown by our people has been replaced by greed and corruption.
All we need do is look out our window to the displaced citizens who must sleep in parks and on benches in the streets due to no longer having an income to support their families with.
To the victims of violent crime that sit in our hospitals, to the relatives of those who never return from the voids of space.
To the parents who sadly watch while their children grow up in a new world of survival of the fittest and lose respect for the world around them.
We all understand why our nation has become the way it has over the past years, due to the vision of a few, who are sucking the decency out of Kusari,
one credit at a time.
The current regime does too little to stop this development. They let the credit rule behind the curtains.
Your house, livelihood, family and culture are all taking second place to the all mighty credit.
The Kusari Justice Party wishes to halt this slide into degeneration and return Kusari to the grandeur it once was.
A place of high ideals, where everyone has a job and the cost of living is kept low enough for all.
We do not want to see our culture change to become more like Liberty, we are not Liberty.
Kusari has a rich history, culture and tradition, one we will protect unconditionally.
Stated goals are:
Social reforms to preserve and protect our culture and traditions from foreign influence.
Economic reforms leading to a greater distribution of wealth for all citizens, greater welfare packages and a mandate written in law to protect the people.
An increase in funding for all divisions of Kusari defense forces and police.
An increase in taxation on all foreign works as well as goods imported through Kusari to assist with greater tax breaks for domestic products.
To bring Kusari back to a position of respect from both our citizens and neighbors.
Preserving local industries with all means available. Planet Junyo’s decreasing fishing industry and the continuous siege on Planet Tomioka representing the most urgent issues requiring a firm approach.
Supporting local research institutions to develop technology ensuring Kusari’s independence from Gaijin technology as much as possible.
Ryuu Majima, Oyabun of the Majima Family, to the citizens of Kusari.
Politicians of Kusari, you got no balls for the job.
What we need is a strong mind at the top. One not to hesitate when shit hits the fan. And it does since years!
Criminals? Punish them. For real. Not with some tangly-ass fines and prison sentences. These fools understand only the harshest treatments.
Just take a look at these pests up Nagano, pummeling our great nation like we’re some random fools. It’s time to show them the way out, I’m your man for this. Few hundred thugs to crap on? That’s daily stuff for us.
Business and economics, eh? We run the show down on Kyushu and New Tokyo. We run the Golden Dragon. We know business. We know what is needed. Heck, we even defuse bombs for ya without y'all noticing!
New neighbors, old neighbors, who cares? As long as they don’t do shit, they are money. So we go keep that business running!
Insecurity leads to more delinquents thinking they are smart asses. We'll throw ya the cash needed to live your life without fears.
But ya know what else is really needed? Honesty. Two faced snakes all over the damn place. Feels like ya have to cut down everyone these days. Y'all think with your pockets, respect and honesty go down the crapper. Vote for us and we’ll bash true values straight back into your heads.
Vote for Majima now! Otherwise, enlist to Majima Construction, we build shit, no experience required!

Founded on the very same traditional values of House Kusari, the society aims to revive and restore principles that it feels are either lacking or have been lost to time and regression, brought on by immoral tendencies such as greed and opposition to change, which have in turn sown the seeds of corruption which lead to dissent. As a party, the society adopts a humble and approachable attitude, maintaining a calm disposition even in heated debate with political opponents.
Despite it's meek mannerisms, the society as a group has vehemently opposed Rheinland's presence in the Sigmas after its recent belligerence and has cited the alleged lapse of judgement as being a very grave threat to the economic well-being of Kusari. It has therefore expressed a keen interest in seeing Rheinland withdraw from the Sigmas under the pressure of negotiation, rather than taking an explicitly combative stance.
"The society of that which is yet to be revived must begin acting according to the fundamental beliefs that the House was built on. And great caution and concern should be both exercised and expressed for those who are quick to anger and slow to change." - Shoji Kimura, Re-emergence society leader.
Objectives
1. Restore a sense of dignity and self sufficiency to the society and economy of Kusari.
2. Decentralization of Imperial power and increased regional autonomy.
3. Support the GMG in negotiation to see illegal invasion of the Sigmas brought to an end.
4. Curtail corporate influence in politics, raise corporate taxation.
5. Launching an anti-corruption campaign.
