Yežigäti (lit. Unify!; S Tuz. /ˈjɛˌʒ.ɡæ.t/; YG) is a sub-federal, Reriskzeiy-based political party which advocates for Proper Tuszkeanism, populism, and social populism. The party is an affiliate of the Social-Populist Party and Social Populists, and is considered to be moderately left-wing. It is to the right of most other social populist parties in the Kryfona Kingdom. The party is a member of the Social Populist Group (SPH), as well as the Old World Social Populist Union (IVSPZ). The party is also one of the newest significant parties in the Kryfona Kingdom, having been founded in 1990.

Because of its recency as a political party, Yežigäti has relatively little in the way of history. It was founded on 2 September, 1990 by Saňar Gandovisa along with a broad coalition of social populist Tuszkeans who recognized the lack of social populist representation in the province of Reriskzeiy and among the government of Tuszke as a whole. The party elected its first leader, Voisas Dervuri, the following day. Although it is a social populist and generally populist party, Yežigäti is perhaps best known for its support of the Proper Tuszkean ideology. The party is a significant advocate for the existence of a government run only by Tuszkeans first, and which promotes the social populist ideology second; for this the party has received significant criticism by both the Kryfona minority in Reriskzeiy and Kryfona outside of Tuszke. Nevertheless, Yežigäti remains a popular party in the rural regions of Reriskzeiy in which the "Kryfona minority" is less of a minority.

Although the party was founded in 1990, it did not win its first seats until 1999, when it carried 3 rural seats out of the 51 in the Tuszkeyan Parliament. Several times before that point, however–in by-elections and local elections–the party was a significant force and in many cases was only narrowly defeated. Between 1994 and 1996, the party contested 4 elections and lost all of them by less than 4 percentage points. Since it gained its first seats, the party has defended and retained them in every subsequent election. The party won an additional seat in 2011, bringing their total in the Tuszkeyan House to 4 out of 51. Despite significant ideological differences, the party officially caucuses with the Pažem Tuszkeya as part of a governing coalition with them and the Official Reriskzeiyan Movement. This agreement has been in place since 2005.

The party is currently run by 37-year-old Drij Rýspari, a Keszanetaa native. He has run the party since he was elected by the party's board in 2007, and under him the party has grown considerably.
