The National League for Democracy (NLD) achieved a decisive victory in the general election, securing 396 out of 476 parliamentary seats. This outcome represented an increase in their margin of victory compared to the previous election. The NLD's success underscored the party's strong support among the electorate, reflecting a continued preference for democratic governance over military influence. In contrast, the military's proxy party, the Union Solidarity and Development Party, managed to win only 33 seats, indicating a significant decline in their political power and influence. This election result not only reinforced the NLD's position in Myanmar's political landscape but also highlighted the ongoing struggle between democratic forces and military-backed entities in the country.
