People's Republic of Ziridava

The People's Republic of Zolevskoy (PRZ; Народна република Золевской) was the official name of Zolevskoy, when it was a socialist republic. The People's Republic of Zolevskoy existed from 1947 to 1986 and it was ruled by the Zolevskoyan Communist Party (ZCP).

Government and politics
The constitution was changed several times, with the Vancho Constitution lasting the longest. According to article 1, "The People's Republic of Zolevskoy is a socialist state, headed by the working people of the village and the city. The leading force in society and politics is the Zolevskoy Communist Party".

The PRZ functioned as a one-party people's republic, with People's Committees representing local governance. Their role was to exercise Party decisions in their respective areas and to otherwise defer to popular opinion in decision-making. In the early 1980s, the ZCP had an estimated peak membership of 1,000,000 — more than 10% of the population.
