A Party that's Communist.

History

Skelezomperman once joked that he would found the KCP. Kitty then took it seriously and issued a warrant for his arrest. As a result, Skele made the KCP a real party, even though Skele is not a hardliner Communist.

List of Operations

  • 5/19/2016: Attempted armed takeover of the provinces of Kitania and Hillside. Dispatched by the KIA within a few hours.
  • 5/21/2016: Truck bombing in front of Formosa's city hall in response to the Yaxier Alliance.

What we Believe

The Kitanian Communist Party is a Marxist Party which seeks to transition to democratic socialism democratically.

Our manifesto, the Eleven Points, is this:

  • To create working emergency services in the City-State of Kitania
  • To reduce the role of the KIA in the CSoK
  • To transition the CSoK to an actual democracy with a non-static President
  • To end the participation of the CSoK in costly wars that do not help its defense
  • To pull out of all MPOs and found a new Communist MPO
  • To raise the Kitanian minimum wage to $15 per hour
  • To expand workers rights through the requirement of sick leave, vacation time, and maternity leave
  • To reduce the hours worked per day to eight hours and allow every Kitanian more leisure time
  • To improve the school system and allow for free school at all levels from Preschool to Postsecondary
  • To raise tariffs on trade to get more revenue and encourage self-sufficiency
  • To encourage workers around the MRT to rise up and destroy their shackles

We also encourage Kitania to become self-sustaining and as a result we support secession from the central MRT government. However, there are several misconceptions. We at the KCP do not want to:

  • Break up the City-State of Kitania completely
  • Transition to another dictatorship
  • Create a welfare-dependent society
  • Take away rights to private property

On the Yaxier Alliance

The Yaxier Alliance has similar goals to what the KCP has. However, they are also an enemy of the KCP. If the City-State of Kitania's current dictatorship is the Great Satan, than the Yaxier Alliance is the Little Satan. Let these facts be brought forth:

  • Most of the cities in the Yaxier Alliance have very similar governmental structures to the current dictatorship.
  • Most of these cities also have militaries that act very similarly to the KIA.
  • These cities are Capitalist dictatorships that want to take over Kitania.
  • A Yaxier Alliance victory over the current dictatorship is potentially worse than the status quo because of the fact that a foreign dictatorship would be controlling Kitania instead of a local one.
  • None of the Yaxier Alliance cities have advanced workers rights as championed by the KCP in the Eleven Points above.

As a result, the Yaxier Alliance is considered to go against the values of the KCP. We are actively fighting them as well as the current dictatorship, and we continue to champion the workers of Kitania. In addition, if the YA were to declare war on the CSoK, it may be prudent for a temporary ceasefire with the current dictatorship to occur in order to stop foreign powers from taking over Kitania to exploit it.

Radio Free Kitania

Radio Free Kitania is the external broadcast arm of the KCP. Its goal is to help spur on the cause for workers by disseminating the truth about the CSoK government as well as to provide morale through the use of good music and entertainment. RFK signs on every day at 6 AM and signs off at 12 AM. RFK broadcasts on the following shortwave freequencies: 670, 702, 890, and 912 kHZ. This can be heard anywhere in the New World, however signal strength may vary depending on distance from the transmitters, time of day, and weather. RFK shortwave is not intended to be heard on the Old World, however a very faint signal may be heard in some southeastern areas. In addition, if you live in the Northwestern Area of the New World, especially Nippia, Liten, Armada, Formosa, Whitechapel, Laclede, Konawa, Sealane, Ilirea, Wazamawazi, and Vermillion, you will be able to receive RFK on television on 11.9 GHz. When adjusting your satellite dishes, please point them in a direction that is approximately directly above Nippia.

On the Merger Between IntraAir and Notalis

The merger between IntraAir and Notalis is upcoming. However, it is a very bad decision on the part of both sides, and will hurt the vast majority of the population of the entire country, and especially that of the City-State of Kitania.

We offer up five reasons why it shouldn't happen:

  • It worsens Kitanian infrastructure. While IntraAir, as stated before, is legally a Covinan company, IntraAir was founded as a Kitanian airline providing service for the City-State of Kitania. A merger with the foreign Notalis could cause resources to be drawn away from Kitania and be detrimental for the City-State.
  • Quality of service is lowered. IntraAir is known to have a very high quality service with numerous innovations such as Emperor Class that put it ahead of the pack. A merger with Notalis will probably lower quality and stop these great innovations from occurring.
  • Kitanian workers are hurt. IntraAir is run from Vergil, however it maintains large offices in Nippia, Kitania, and Zaquar, as well as employing large amounts of ground workers in Kitania, Llamapolis, Zicronia, and Zaquar. A merger will cause cuts and hurt the Kitanian economy.
  • It leads to a Monopoly. IntraAir and Notalis collectively control about 60-75% of the flight market today. With that being said, a merged Notalis very probably could push smaller airlines, such as SkyWest, Eastern Airways, and especially BART Airlines, out of business due to flooding the market with cheap flights.
  • The situation was lied about. Probably the strongest reason against the merger is the fact that officials from both IntraAir and Notalis have lied about merger negotiations numerous times, which shows their contempt for the common people.

Therefore, we ask that you sign a petition here to stop the merger. In addition, we ask that you protest on social media with the hashtags #KeepIntraAirMyIntraAir, #DefendKitania, and #StopTheMerger. Finally, we have contacted both the Government of Covina (where IntraAir is currently headquartered) and the Government of the City-State of Kitania to ask them to block the merger.

Thank you for supporting the common workers.
