The Workers Cooperative Alliance or Workers' Party of Pacitalia is a minor socialist political party in the Democratic Capitalist Republic of Pacitalia. The party was created in 1964 from a coalition of labour organisation leaders, but dissolved temporarily in 1977 to support the government of Athena Papistikas. They announced their reconstitution in 1999 and elected party president Jávier Grandinetti as interim leader of the party in 2001. Failing to win any seats in the 2004 election, the party turned to PSC leader Fernando Chiovitti, who used parliamentary sessions to increase attention on the WCA. Its believed that the WCA and PSC have many ties, but they are still legally separate parties and will thusly be running against each other in the upcoming January 2006 election.
