  Res Publica Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Res Publica Party (Estonian: Erakond Res Publica) was a political party in Estonia that self-identified as conservative and therefore member of IDC, but considering its vague platform for 2003 election, the genuineness of this ideology is disputed.
Established as a party on 8 December 2001, the political organisation Res Publica was founded already as early as 1989 and existed as a community of young conservatives, mostly associated with the Pro Patria Union party during the 1990s.
Res Publica is the largest party in the Riigikogu, with 28 of 101 seats, currently holding opposition.

Res Publica, a European game by Reiner Knizia, is a game of almost pure trading, where the winner is determined by who can best collect resources on an even playing field.

"The explanation for this could be that to some extent [Res Publica managed to get] the votes of the dissatisfied, the vote by those who are not happy with the current politics, and it turned out that the number of people who are unhappy with the existing parties is larger than expected," Tammerk said.
He said Res Publica drew support both from young people who want swifter market reforms and from pensioners who are dissatisfied with the free market.
Tammerk said Res Publica, as the less experienced party, may have a hard time staffing government positions.
