Editing Legislative Yuan (section)

== Composition by term ==
The [[Kuomintang]] (KMT) held a [[supermajority]] of seats in the Legislative Yuan between 1948 and 1991, while some seats were held by the [[Chinese Youth Party]] (CYP) and the [[China Democratic Socialist Party]] (CDSP). Through the limited supplementary elections held in since the 1970s, the [[Tangwai movement]] saw their share of seats increase. Most members in the Tangwai movement joined the [[Democratic Progressive Party]] (DPP) after its founding in the late 1980s.
