History
Communist Party
Shortly after its establishment in October 2010, the party quickly gained influence among Indokistani citizens. Several weeks after its establishment, the Socialist Party and Liberal Party decision to merge with the Communist Party, greatly strengthening the influence of the party inside Indokistan. In December 2010, the party was the main culprit of the coup that overthrown Farhan Abbas and installed a communist authority inside Indokistan, establishing the Socialist Republic of Indokistan.
The party attempt to ruling the country was cut short after citizens revolt in January 2011 that restored the previous government. New government under Farhan Abbas later decided to ban the party because of its involvement on the coup before. In February 2011, government ban on the Communist Party was revoked, thus allowing the party to continue their political activities.

The Communist Party later changed their name on May 2011, to imitate the National Party move to change their name too. Beside of that, the party officials also wishes to soften their appearance to Indokistani public, and as an attempt to dissociate themself with the Socialist Republic of Indokistan. Farhan Abbas later joined the party and became its leader, despite few months earlier ban the party.
The party later merged with United Republican Party and Islamic Party of Indokistan to form United Peoples Party in June 2011, a move that was proposed and sanctioned by its own chairman Farhan Abbas.
