Democratic Socialists of America (The Pearl World)

Democratic Socialists of America was the name of a political party that existed in the United States from 1982-2042, when it merged with the Progressive Party. Though established in 1982, its membership surged in the 2020s as Democrats became increasingly divided, leading to the party's dissolution.

History
In 2018, the Democratic Socialists of America began running for congressional seats, winning in at least three states, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Washington.

The Party grew in membership as the Democratic Party under Tom Perez became further divided, planting the seeds for Republican and Conservative control over the country for at least 12 more years.

In 2020, the Party endorsed Democratic Nominee Elizabeth Warren, a candidate who democrats hoped would bring back disenfranchised voters, but saw itself beaten badly in the election with Donald Trump winning a second term in an electoral landslide.

In 2021, the DSA rejoined Socialist International after leaving it in 2017. The Party grew in size that year, and gained international praise.

The DSA grew in size yet again in 2022. In Michigan, the DSA was the second largest political party, only behind the Republican Party, which itself had been divided.

The Democratic Socialists gained control of the Senate in 2025, when the Democratic Party was dissolved on December 14, 2024.

The DSA would lose control over the Senate however, when a Progressive Movement began sweeping the nation.

During the 2020s Depression, the DSA grew in size and popularity in the Northern States, boasting nearly 3.5 Million members.

In 2030, DSA Membership declined as millions of voters began flocking to the growing Progressive Movement in the Northeast. In 2032, the DSA had become the third largest political party, behind the Conservatives and New Democrats.

In 2032, Daniel Andersen, an Independent from Washington, ran for President on a Keynesian Platform of job creation, and was immediately endorsed by the DSA.

Andersen's Presidency was a Progressive Revolution. The Progressive Movement usurped many of the members of the DSA, before the two parties merged in 2036.
