:''There is also a Rally of Democratic Forces (rebel group) in Sudan.'' The Rally of Democratic Forces (French: ''Regroupement des Forces Démocratiques'') is a political party in Mauritania. It is led by Ahmed Ould Daddah. In October 2000, the Union of Democratic Forces-New Era, which was led by Daddah, was dissolved by the government for allegedly inciting violence and harming the country's interests. In its place the Rally of Democratic Forces was established, and Daddah was elected its President in January 2002.〔("Mauritania: Update to MRT39363.E of 25 September 2002 on the Union of Democratic Forces-New Era (Union des forces démocratiques-Ère nouvelle, UFD-EN) and its successor, the Rally of Democratic Forces (Rassemblement des forces démocratiques, RFD), including the treatment of its members by government authorities (2002-October 2004)" ), Responses to Information Requests, Research Directorate, Immigration and Refugee Board, Canada, UNHCR.org.〕 In the parliamentary election held on October 19 and 26 October 2001, the party won 5.6% of the popular vote and 3 out of 81 seats.

The RFD participated in this election as part of an eight party opposition alliance.〔("Mauritanian opposition leader claims victory" ), DPA (''IOL''), November 21, 2006.〕 It won 15 out of 95 seats in the 21 January and 4 February 2007 Senate elections 7 out of 56 seats.
