The National Democracy (Czech: Národní demokracie), called also Czechoslovak National Democracy (Czech: Československá národní demokracie), was a First Republic right-wing political party in Czechoslovakia.

History

The party was established in 1918 by a merger of the Free-minded National Party ("Young Czechs") and several smaller parties, and was initially known as the Czech Constitutional Democratic Party.[3] It formed the first provisional government led by Karel Kramář, and the following year it was renamed the National Democracy.[3]

In 1935 the party merged with the National League and the National Front to form the National Unification.[3]
