Explanation and Etymology - (与党) yotou
与党 (yotou) is a Japanese word composed of two kanji: 与 (yo) which means "with" or "together with" and 党 (tou) which means "political party". Together, these kanji form the term that refers to the political party that is currently in power or is the majority party in a governing coalition. The word can be translated as "ruling party" or "majority party". The etymology of the word dates back to the Meiji period (1868-1912), when the Japanese political system was reformed and the government adopted the Western model of parliamentary democracy.
