The '''Catholic Royalist Party''' ([[Creeperian language|Creeperian]]: ''Partido Real Católico''; abbreviated '''PRC'''), also contemporarily referred to as the '''Sáenist Faction''' (Creeperian: ''Facción Sáenista'') and '''The Fascists''' (Creeperian: ''Los'Fascistas''){{NoteTag|name="The Fascists"|The name "The Fascists" was initially applied by leftists to the Catholic Royalist Party, but with the establishment of the [[Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front]] (FPPC) in 1921, the name began to be more frequently used in reference to the FPPC, however, the name was still applied to the PRC, but to a lesser degree.}} by leftists, was a right-wing to far-right political party which was active from 1887 to 1949 during the [[Second Parliamentary Era]] of [[Creeperopolis]].
 +
 +
The party split from the [[National Conservative Party (Creeperopolis)|National Conservative Party]] (PCN) shortly after the its establishment due to disagreements over certain political agendas. It was founded by [[Francisco Dueñas Díaz]], a former military commander during the ''[[Adolfisto]]''. After his resignation as party leader in 1901, he was succeeded by [[Antonio Sáenz Heredia]], who assumed total control of the party by 1902. With Sáenz Heredia as the party's ''[[Caudillo]]'', the party shifted further to the right and adopted several new extreme-right ideologies. Additionally, the party established a paramilitary wing, the ''[[Falange Creeperiano]]'', and began to adopt dictatorial ambitions, with the end goal of abolishing democracy in Creeperopolis and ruling the country with the [[Monarchy of Creeperopolis|Emperor]] as a figurehead. Despite various attempts to do so, political and civilian opposition prevented the party from completely taking control of the government, however, the party did wield significant power, with Sáenz Heredia holding the position of [[Prime Minister of Creeperopolis|prime minister]] on four different occasions.
 +
 +
[[National Catholicism]] and monarchism were the party's primary ideologies, with other core ideologies being [[Creeperian nationalism|nationalism]], social conservatism, and anti-secularism. From 1902, the party also adopted [[Anti-Atheism in Creeperopolis|anti-atheism]], [[Anti-Islamism in Creeperopolis|anti-Islamism]], [[Anti-Protestantism in Creeperopolis|anti-Protestantism]], [[Anti-Communism in Creeperopolis|anti-communism]], and in 1933, [[Romerism]]. The ideologies of the party have broadly been combined by political scientists as [[Sáenzism–Falangism]].
 +
 +
During the [[Creeperian Civil War]], the party supported the far-right [[Catholic Imperial Restoration Council]] (CRIC), being one of the faction's most important supporters. The Imperial Council eventually won the civil war, defeating the far-left [[National Council for Peace and Order]] (CNPO) in the [[Battle of the Zapatista River]] on 30 September 1949. On 4 October 1949, the party was abolished and merged into the [[Creeperian Initiative|Nationalist Creeperian Catholic Royal Initiative and the Pro-Fatherland Front of Unification]] (IRCCN y la'FPPU; Creeperian Initiative), together with the National Conservative Party and the [[Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front]]. Sáenz Heredia was appointed as the new party's secretary and held the position until his death in 1957.
 +
 +
The Catholic Royalist Party is considered to be one of the most important political entities of the Second Parliamentary Era. Of the parties that merged to form the Creeperian Initiative, the structure and ideals of the Catholic Royalist Party were, and remain, the most pronounced, as the party currently is very National Catholic, monarchist, nationalist, anti-communist, and Romerist. Additionally, the party's symbol, the ''yugo y flechas'' (yoke and arrows), was added onto the [[flag of Creeperopolis]] in 1933 by the Imperial Council, and it currently remains on the national flag, solidifying the party's influence on modern Creeperopolis.
 +
 +
== Names ==
 +
 +
The party was founded as the ''Catholic Royalist Party'' (''Partido Real Católico''; PRC) and it retained the same name throughout its entire existence, although, there were some proposals by some high-ranking party members to change the party's name to the ''Catholic Romerist Party'' (''Partido Romeristo Católico''; PRC) during the late-1940s.
 +
 +
Several leftists and leftists organizations had various pejorative nicknames for the Catholic Royalist Party. The most commonly used nickname was the ''Sáenist Faction'' (''Facción Sáenista''), or sometimes the ''Sáenist Band'' (''Banda Sáenista''). The party was also referred to as ''The Fascists'' (''Las'Fascistas''), however, the name was used less frequently towards the end of the Second Parliamentary Era as it had begun to be applied more in reference to the Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front (FPPC). Some moderate-rightist politicians referred to the party as the ''Absolutists'' (''Absolutos'') and the ''Fundamentalists'' (''Fundamentalistas'').

The Catholic Royalist Party (Creeperian: Partido Real Católico; abbreviated PRC), also contemporarily referred to as the Sáenist Faction (Creeperian: Facción Sáenista) and The Fascists (Creeperian: Los'Fascistas)[note 1] by leftists, was a right-wing to far-right political party which was active from 1887 to 1949 during the Second Parliamentary Era of Creeperopolis.

The party split from the National Conservative Party (PCN) shortly after the its establishment due to disagreements over certain political agendas. It was founded by Francisco Dueñas Díaz, a former military commander during the Adolfisto. After his resignation as party leader in 1901, he was succeeded by Antonio Sáenz Heredia, who assumed total control of the party by 1902. With Sáenz Heredia as the party's Caudillo, the party shifted further to the right and adopted several new extreme-right ideologies. Additionally, the party established a paramilitary wing, the Falange Creeperiano, and began to adopt dictatorial ambitions, with the end goal of abolishing democracy in Creeperopolis and ruling the country with the Emperor as a figurehead. Despite various attempts to do so, political and civilian opposition prevented the party from completely taking control of the government, however, the party did wield significant power, with Sáenz Heredia holding the position of prime minister on four different occasions.

National Catholicism and monarchism were the party's primary ideologies, with other core ideologies being nationalism, social conservatism, and anti-secularism. From 1902, the party also adopted anti-atheism, anti-Islamism, anti-Protestantism, anti-communism, and in 1933, Romerism. The ideologies of the party have broadly been combined by political scientists as Sáenzism–Falangism.

During the Creeperian Civil War, the party supported the far-right Catholic Imperial Restoration Council (CRIC), being one of the faction's most important supporters. The Imperial Council eventually won the civil war, defeating the far-left National Council for Peace and Order (CNPO) in the Battle of the Zapatista River on 30 September 1949. On 4 October 1949, the party was abolished and merged into the Nationalist Creeperian Catholic Royal Initiative and the Pro-Fatherland Front of Unification (IRCCN y la'FPPU; Creeperian Initiative), together with the National Conservative Party and the Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front. Sáenz Heredia was appointed as the new party's secretary and held the position until his death in 1957.

The Catholic Royalist Party is considered to be one of the most important political entities of the Second Parliamentary Era. Of the parties that merged to form the Creeperian Initiative, the structure and ideals of the Catholic Royalist Party were, and remain, the most pronounced, as the party currently is very National Catholic, monarchist, nationalist, anti-communist, and Romerist. Additionally, the party's symbol, the yugo y flechas (yoke and arrows), was added onto the flag of Creeperopolis in 1933 by the Imperial Council, and it currently remains on the national flag, solidifying the party's influence on modern Creeperopolis.

Names

The party was founded as the Catholic Royalist Party (Partido Real Católico; PRC) and it retained the same name throughout its entire existence, although, there were some proposals by some high-ranking party members to change the party's name to the Catholic Romerist Party (Partido Romeristo Católico; PRC) during the late-1940s.

Several leftists and leftists organizations had various pejorative nicknames for the Catholic Royalist Party. The most commonly used nickname was the Sáenist Faction (Facción Sáenista), or sometimes the Sáenist Band (Banda Sáenista). The party was also referred to as The Fascists (Las'Fascistas), however, the name was used less frequently towards the end of the Second Parliamentary Era as it had begun to be applied more in reference to the Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front (FPPC). Some moderate-rightist politicians referred to the party as the Absolutists (Absolutos) and the Fundamentalists (Fundamentalistas).

Creeperian Translation
Cara'l Sol con la'camisa nueva,
Que bos bordaste en rojo ayer,
Me hallará la'muerte si me lleva,
Y no te vuelvo a ver.
Formaré junto a mis'compañeros,
Que hacen guardia sobre los'luceros,
Impasible'l ademán, y 'stán,
Presentes en nuestro afán.
Si te dicen que caí,
Me fui'l puesto que tengo allí.
Volverán banderas victoriosas,
Al paso alegre de la'paz,
Y traerán prendidas cinco rosas:
Las'flechas de mi haz.
Volverá a reír la'primavera,
Que por cielo, tierra, y mar sespera.
Arriba, escuadras a vencer,
¡Quen la'Patria empieza amanecer!
Facing the Sun with my new shirt,
Which you covered in blood yesterday,
Death will find me if it takes me,
And I won't see you again.
I will form together with my companions,
Who stand guard over the stars,
Their gesture is impassable, and they are,
Present in out eagerness.
If they tell you that I fell,
I went to the post I have there.
They will return with victorious banners,
At the joyous pace of peace,
And they bring five roses:
The arrows of my beam.
The spring will laugh again,
For by sky, land, and sea awaits.
Arise, squadrons to victory,
For in the Fatherland, dawn begins!

Notes

  1. ↑ The name "The Fascists" was initially applied by leftists to the Catholic Royalist Party, but with the establishment of the Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front (FPPC) in 1921, the name began to be more frequently used in reference to the FPPC, however, the name was still applied to the PRC, but to a lesser degree.
