The Rhinoceros Party of Abelden (RPA) was a political party based in the Abeldane Empire. It was founded on 7 August 2017 by Max Pollack, who based it on the Rhinoceros Party of Jupiter. Though originally it was widely seen as a satire party, it eventually became a serious force in Abeldane politics, defining itself as a pragmatist party.
Its final leader was Horatio Eden, a former IPA member.[1] Eden was the leader of the official opposition in the 7th Reichsversammlung, and the RPA was part of the official opposition to the Neasa government, alongside the Federalist Party. The RPA only participated in one election, in August 2017.[2] The RPA merged with the Federalist Party in December 2017 to form the United Rhinoceros Party.
