The '''Liberal Party of Empherias''', more commonly known as the '''Liberal Party''' or '''Liberals''' is a centre-left to centre to centre-right political party in Empherias. The party was founded in 2332 as the first ever centre-left party in the nation but evolved to become further right wing as it identified with free market capitalism and merged with several right-wing conservative minority parties. They are a subsidy of the larger Liberal Party of the High Kingdoms of Alaxia, being incorporated in 2449.
The '''Liberal Party of Empherias''', more commonly known as the '''Liberal Party''' or '''Liberals''' is a centre to centre-right political party in [[Empherias]]. As the Evergreens collapsed, a left-wing faction known as the 'Mellows' split and formed the party in 2332. Initially, the party was left-wing and focused on classic liberalism. Conservative dominance and strangling of the electorate forced the Liberals to adopt more right-wing and reactionary policies to continue being elected in the late 2300s. Post-revolution, the party was mainly a minor alternative, but became the major right-wing political party in the 2420 general election as the already struggling Conservatives needed a new rebrand in the face of a majority socialist government. The influx of conservatism pushed the party further to the right but they maintained their liberalism roots. The party would merge with many minor conservative parties and adopt more conservatism policies. They returned to government in the 2430s and while the government itself was relatively centrist for the party, backbenches forced a right wing agenda or rebellion.

The Liberals went back to the backbenches from the 2440s until the 2470s but it joined the federal political group of Liberals. The long period in the back pushed party policies more to the centre to try and become electable but these results ended in failure. A failing Socialist government saw the right-wing section of the party rise to power and win back to back elections in the 2470s and 2480s. They introduced a large array of conservative policies with a big majority and long period to implement them, especially privatisation and neo-liberal policies. With Scarlett May's resignation in 2487, the far-right of the party hijacked it to implement a further right-wing policies but they are voted out and internal rebellions take place within the party. The Liberals resurge as a more moderate party in the early 2500s but lost power to the Nationalists when they fail to handle the financial crisis in 2507. The Nationalists grip the right-wing vote for a while and keep the Liberals out of power. Under Valorie Metz, the Liberals return to a major power and take advantage of a scandal filled Labour government and a successful Liberal group nationwide to win a convincing coalition government.

The Liberal Party of Empherias, more commonly known as the Liberal Party or Liberals is a centre to centre-right political party in Empherias. As the Evergreens collapsed, a left-wing faction known as the 'Mellows' split and formed the party in 2332. Initially, the party was left-wing and focused on classic liberalism. Conservative dominance and strangling of the electorate forced the Liberals to adopt more right-wing and reactionary policies to continue being elected in the late 2300s. Post-revolution, the party was mainly a minor alternative, but became the major right-wing political party in the 2420 general election as the already struggling Conservatives needed a new rebrand in the face of a majority socialist government. The influx of conservatism pushed the party further to the right but they maintained their liberalism roots. The party would merge with many minor conservative parties and adopt more conservatism policies. They returned to government in the 2430s and while the government itself was relatively centrist for the party, backbenches forced a right wing agenda or rebellion.

The Liberals went back to the backbenches from the 2440s until the 2470s but it joined the federal political group of Liberals. The long period in the back pushed party policies more to the centre to try and become electable but these results ended in failure. A failing Socialist government saw the right-wing section of the party rise to power and win back to back elections in the 2470s and 2480s. They introduced a large array of conservative policies with a big majority and long period to implement them, especially privatisation and neo-liberal policies. With Scarlett May's resignation in 2487, the far-right of the party hijacked it to implement a further right-wing policies but they are voted out and internal rebellions take place within the party. The Liberals resurge as a more moderate party in the early 2500s but lost power to the Nationalists when they fail to handle the financial crisis in 2507. The Nationalists grip the right-wing vote for a while and keep the Liberals out of power. Under Valorie Metz, the Liberals return to a major power and take advantage of a scandal filled Labour government and a successful Liberal group nationwide to win a convincing coalition government.
