Cuba is a socialist republic governed by a single political party, the Communist Party of Cuba. The party is recognized in the constitution as the leading force of the state and society, and no other political parties are permitted to compete for power. While Cuba holds elections for local and national assemblies, candidates are not nominated through multiparty competition, and ultimate political authority rests with the Communist Party leadership.
