The National Party of Coruscant, also known as the Nationalist Party and nicknamed the Nationalists, is a federal political party of the Republic of Coruscant introduced in DRAW Your Own Story: At Plot's End, and the first such party identified within DYOS. The Nationalists espouse a populist ideology of "national independence through personal independence"[1], opposing POPA–SIPPA and advocating the restoration of national glory akin to, but without the reactionism of the isolationists seen in DYOS 10.5.[2] The National Party employs various fascist symbols in its iconography, and features a paramilitary wing that has engaged in direct action against both state authorities[3] and foreign groups[4].

The National Party first appears through its militia wing on the planet Dawnstar, supporting data runners in contravention of POPA–SIPPA.[3] Nationalists can be seen in the background of several comics throughout the thread, and a full combat force assists Stylesjl and Co. during the skirmish with Interpol.[4] Mirroring the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States in 2016, the Nationalists adopt a similar "strong man" attitude, including appropriating the slogan "Make Coruscant Great Again"; the party leader, Mr. Medenhall, seeks to recruit CivGeneral as National nominee in the upcoming federal election.[2]
