The Democratic Party of Albanians (Albanian: Partia Demokratike e Shqiptarëve; Macedonian: Демократска партија на Албанците, Demokratska Partija na Albancite) or DPA is a political party of ethnic Albanians in North Macedonia. The DPA is a merger of the Party for Democratic Prosperity of Albanians (PDPA) and the People's Democratic Party (NDP) which took place in June 1997. The former party was established in 1994 after some radical members of the Party for Democratic Prosperity, led by Menduh Thaçi and Arbën Xhaferi, left the PDP and the latter party was founded in August 1990 as a more radical opponent of the PDP.
The party's main symbol consists of the black double-headed eagle found on the Albanian flag, but with white eyes, on a red background, again, found on the Albanian flag. This background is encased in a golden outline, with a waving flag-like object of the same colour, but with bold, black letters saying, "PDSH." The party flag is the coat of arms of the party, but with a red background, found on the Albanian flag.
