Government and Politics
The government and politics of the Federation are dominated by two large parties, the Bosniak Party for Democratic Action (Stranka demokratske akcije, SDA) and the Croatian Democratic Union of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Hrvatska demokratska zajednica, HDZ). Since the 2010 Bosnian elections, HDZBiH is in opposition, while SDA is the second largest party in FBiH. The biggest party in FBiH is the Socialdemocratic Party of Bosnia and Herzegovina (SDPBiH) now.
In September 2010, the International Crisis Group warned that "disputes among and between Bosniak and Croat leaders and a dysfunctional administrative system have paralysed decision-making, put the entity on the verge of bankruptcy and triggered social unrest".
