^ A: United Russia does not have a coherent ideology but has been described by various sources as centrist,[18] centre-right,[21] or right-wing.[24] United Russia also expresses support for far-right parties in Europe.[28]

The party has most of the seats in the State Duma and in the Regional Parliaments. Because of this, United Russia is the most powerful political party in Russia. The party was started on 1 December 2001 when Unity, Fatherland – All Russia, and the Our Home – Russia became one party.[29]
