Social Liberals (SL; Czech: Sociální liberálové) is a left-wing party in the Gymnasium State. It was founded in December 2018 by František Prášek and Ondřej Chalupka as a counterweight to the Civic Republican Party. It considers itself to be a general left-wing party, but it has a sizeable centrist and apolitical wing. It had been the largest political party in the micronation since it merged with satirical STŮL party, not approved by the senate, shortly after foundation of both parties, but lost its plurality in the senate in late 2022.

History

Shortly after the establishment of the Civic Republican Party began some left-wing politicians, led by František Prášek and Ondřej Chalupka, to consider creation of a left-wing party as a counterweight to the CRP. On 19 December 2018, the Social Liberals were established as the sole left-wing political party in the micronation. At the same time, a satirical party called STŮL (Czech for table) attempted to register, but the senate decided against its legalisation. Prášek used the opportunity and offered its leadership merger with the Social Liberals, which led to the creation of the current centrist wing within the party and to SL becoming the largest political party both in membership and senate seats. Consequences of the merger are still visible to this day as a significant portion of the party votes in both presidential elections and senate votings recessively. The party first ran in the January 2019 election, where its member Kryštof Satorie was elected premier, and was successful in many following elections. In September of the same year both the president and premier were members of SL, which then happened again in March 2021 and July 2022. In July 2021 the party faced its worst ever result, when none of its candidates recieved any votes. After Damian Málek transferred to the Civic Republican Party, the Social Liberals also lost its plurality in the senate.
