The ASP (the Afro-Shirazi Party) was to be in the minority in a British style parliamentary system with the Sultan serving as the reigning but not ruling "monarch". This Nation, a full member of the British Commonwealth and a newly enrolled sovereign member of the United Nations was destined to last only 33 days.
A.S.P (Chama cha Afro shirazi) kilikuwa kiwe kipo katika Serikali iliyo na chini ya nusu ya wabunge kwa mtindo wa bunge la Kiingereza na Sultani, akiwa kama ni mtawala tu lakini sio mtawala mwenye maamuzi ya mwisho. Taifa hili la Zanzibar ambalo lilikuwa mwanchana kamili wa Jumuia ya madola na mwanachana mpya wa Umoja wa Mataifa lilidumu kwa siku 33 tu.
