Mauritania Political Parties consisted of only one party namely the Democratic and Social Republican Party. After 2005, the Democratic and Social Republican Party got transformed into the Republican Party for Democracy and Renewal which is currently in power in Mauritania. Until lately, the oppositional parties in the Mauritania Political Parties had no apparent chances of gaining power. After the 2005 Coup, there came liberalism in the political section and more Mauritania Political Parties came into the forefront and now power is handed over to the one who is a winner of the competitive election.
The major political parties of Mauritania are Republican Party for Democracy and Renewal or the Parti Republicain Democratique et Renouvellement; Union for Democracy and Progress or the Union pour la Democratie et le Progres; the Rally for Democracy and Unity or the Rassemblement pour la Democratie et I'Unite; Action for Change; the Rally of Democratic Forces or the Regroupement des Forces Democratiques; Union of Progress Forces or the Union des Forces du Progres; Union of Democratic Forces or the Union des Forces Democratiques and the People's Front or the Front Populaire.
The political party of the Action for Change is however an illegal one among the political parties in Mauritania. The Baathist and the other extremist Mauritania Political Parties are also the proscribed ones.
