The Revolutionary Democratic Coalition (Arabic: التحالف الديمقراطى الثورى, also translated as 'Democratic Revolutionary Coalition')[1] (also called the United Revolutionary Front)[3] was an electoral alliance in Egypt. It is also active in protests as recently as May 2013.[4] The alliance has been described as being composed of "small socialist, communist and radical parties."[3]
