Leader: Miestrâ Schivâ
Founded: 7 March 2012
Disbanded:present
Beliefs: Republican, defencist.

The ZRT (Zefençadéirs del Repúblicanismeu Talossán; Defenders of Talossan Republicanism) is a Talossan political party. It was re-founded by former members of the PVZT, Miestrâ Schivâ and Carlüs Xheraltescu, on the 7th of March 2012. Schivâ and Xheraltescu argued that with the coming Reunision, the "unity" element of the Defencist Unity Party would be complete, rendering it obsolete. Thus, its transformation into the ZRT was perceived as a necessary step for Defencism.

Party members are commonly referred to as Goats, ZRTers or simply Republicans.

Defencism

Zefençismeu, or Defencism - the ideology on which the ZRT party is founded - sees itself as the heir to the traditions which have kept Talossa strong, vibrant and proud throughout its history. At the same time, it repudiates the traditions which kept Talossa paranoid, nasty, and cultish for much of the later history of the pre-Revolutionary period.

The ZRT states that it stands in, and defends, the best traditions of the Declaration of Independence of December 1979 which created Talossa, the "Noisy Revolution" of June 2004 which created the Talossan Republic, the “Quiet Revolution” of August 2005 which created the modern Kingdom of Talossa, and the Reunision Declaration of 2012.

More simply put, it is a specifically republican form of derivativism.

Constitution

Following the first Convention of the ZRT, a Constitution was approved by party members. The Constitution provided a framework for internal party structure, including the election of an executive committee called the Central Committee and other executive positions.

The full text of the ZRT Constitution may be found here.

Convention

According to the Constitution of the ZRT, the ruling body of the party is the Convention, which must be convened at least once in the life of each Cosâ. The Convention approves the initial policies which will form the manifesto for the next election, elects the Central Committee, and may amend the Platform and Constitution.

Government

Since the results of the 46th Cosa were released, the ZRT elected to join the MRPT and RPT as part of a reformist coalition, a break from the RUMP government which had served Talossa for the better part of the last decade. The offices of the Distain, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Home Affairs are currently held by members of the ZRT.
