Regionalism in Kenya's political parties has profound historical roots. As a major ethnic group, Kikuyu acquired a leading position in Kenya's nationalist movement and progressively developed a sense of superiority , which contradicted the interests of the vast minorities. The conflicts were also mirrored in struggles among political parties . During the interactions between interests of political parties and those of regional ethnic groups, regionalism has been used as a special tool by the two forces and it was also an underlying impetus to the evolution and development of political parties, which were demonstrated, to different extent, by the splits and evolutions of Kenya African National Union and Forum of Restoration of Democracy.
