Fianna Fáil /fᵻˌænə ˈfɔɪl/, (Irish pronunciation: [ˈfʲiən̪ˠə ˈfˠɑːlʲ]) also known as Fianna Fáil, The Republican Party, is a republican centrist to centre-right and conservative political party in the Republic of Ireland. It was founded as an Irish republican party on 23 March 1926 after a split in Sinn Féin on the issue of abstentionism. Fianna Fáil's name is traditionally translated into English as Soldiers of Destiny, although a more accurate rendition would be Warriors of Fál ("Fál" being a legendary name for Ireland). Historically, Fianna Fáil has been seen as to the left of Fine Gael and to the right of Sinn Féin and the Labour Party. It is generally seen as a "catch all" populist party, representing a broad range of people from all social classes. Fianna Fáil has led governments including parties of the centre-left (Labour and the Green Party) and of the centre-right (the now-defunct Progressive Democrats). It has been led by Micheál Martin since January 2011.
