The incumbent [[People's Socialist Party]] won 307 seats, a majority of 12, and an increase of 40 seats from the previous election. Katelyn Roberts was re-elected to her second term, and the PSP governed alone. The opposition [[Liberal Party of Empherias|Liberal party]] led by former prime minister Skylar Lawrence fell from 259 seats to 214 seats, a decrease of 45 seats– it was the worst result for the Liberals since 2432. Following the election, Lawrence announced she would stand down as leader of the party by the end of the parliamentary term.

The election was originally scheduled for December 2446, but the PSP–Greens coalition began to disagree with the supply and confidence Centre party by 2444 over economic policy. The Centre party withdrew their support officially by February 2445, to which the PSP–Greens tried to form a minority government with 292 seats, although they knew it'd be short lived. Katelyn Roberts announced in April that she would hold an early election in September that year, the usual times election had begun to be held, which prevented any early no confidence votes.

The '''2448 Empherias general election''' was held on 26 May 2448 to elect 600 members to the [[Empherias]] [[Parliament of Empherias|parliament]]. It centred around the issue of pan-Alaxanism and increased calls to join the [[High Kingdoms of Alaxia]]. This was the left general election Empherias held as an independent country.

[[Sofia Hopkins]], who took over as [[Prime Minister of Empherias|prime minister]] from [[Katelyn Roberts]], assured her party in January 2448 that no unification would be considered after years of rising pan-Alaxanism sentiment. This prompted [[Lukas Knight]] to make a famous speech and would trigger 30 PSP MPs to form their own spin off party known as the [[Labour Party of Empherias|Alaxian Socialist Party]] (ASP), although it was known primarily as the Labour party. The following month, 77 more MPs defected to Labour, to hold a bloc of 105 seats. Knight and several other prominent politicians began their campaigning for a referendum on joining the High Kingdoms of Alaxia.

To prevent the left-wing from losing a vote of no confidence potentially being tabled by the [[Liberal Party of Empherias|Liberal party]], Hopkins agreed to enter into coalition with Labour under the understanding an early election would be called in 2448 with both parties running. An electoral pact stated that whichever of the two socialist parties received a higher vote share, they would lead the coalition and become prime minister, and their position on the referendum would go forward.

The results saw the incumbent [[People's Socialist Party of Empherias|People's Socialist Party]] come third, reduced from a majority in the [[2445 Empherias general election|previous election]] to fewer than 100 seats, a decrease of 209. The [[Labour Party of Empherias|Labour party]] gained 227 seats to become the largest party. Combined they held 325 seats total, a left-wing majority of 48.

The opposition Liberal party bled votes to the [[Nationalist Party of Empherias|Nationalist party]], which campaigned against integration to the HKA. The Liberals lost 67 seats to hit 147 seats, still coming second, but suffering their worst defeat since 2423 prior to it becoming a major party again. The Nationalists won 77 seats, an increase of 53 seats, with over 4 million votes. It was their best result in history, and it came fourth overall. The Green party also received over one million votes, but only gained six seats.

In the aftermath of the election, Lukas Knight became prime minister as the leader of the largest socialist party in the coalition He would hold a referendum on HKA statehood in [[2448 Empherias referendum on joining the High Kingdoms of Alaxia|July 2448]].
