The 2458 High Kingdoms legislative election was held on 14 November 2458 to elect 530 congressional district representatives to the House of Representatives in the High Kingdoms of Alaxia. No single party won a majority of seats. The incumbent government, comprised of the Golden Coalition, Pink Daphne Party, and Feriliye Jin, received a combined 195 seats, a loss of 73 from the previous election. The Crimson Coalition, the largest opposition bloc, received 199 seats, an increase of 58 seats.

Şadu Marlene had been ousted in August 2458 in a confidence vote and was replaced by Herteu Vitoria as premier in October 2458. Vitoria as the incumbent and also leader of the largest single party had technical first dibs to form a coalition, although the Crimson Coalition argued that they should having the most seats for any alliance. Vitoria was short 71 seats from a majority assuming his supporters from the previous election would still support him, which was not guaranteed, while the Red Bloq candidate Isabella King was short 67 seats from a majority.

The key issue splitting the government was pro-welfare and anti-welfare groups, alongside the ongoing war. Herteu Vitoria stated that he himself was anti-welfare but did not wish to spend the whole term repealing legislation. During Vitoria's confirmation vote on 1 January 2459, the vote was 211–319, with 36 LAK representatives rebelling alongside the LPz and EL who viewed anti-welfarism as a reason why they lost the election. The Pink Daphne group also voted against the premier's re-election. Herteu Vitoria was therefore sacked as acting premier, and the post was left vacant. After rounds of background negotiations, a secondary vote was held on 8 January 2459 and proposed Isabella King as premier. She positioned herself as very pro-welfare and with the conclusion of the Karkuss Oil Crisis, anti-war sentiment was not as big, and she won the vote 336–194, becoming the new Premier of the House of Representatives.

The government was comprised of the Crimson Coalition (199), a majority of the Liberal Party of Ahitereira and Koresa, the Liberal Party of Peryzium (16), and the Liberal Party of Empherias (3). Excluding the rebels who voted against the premier confirmation, this gave the government 310 representatives, a majority of 88. Despite not needing the other two liberal parties, they joined the government to show that the Golden Coalition was not broken despite the rebellions.

20 parties won seats in the election.
