The Conservative Party, commonly referred to as the Conservatives, was a right-wing political party founded on 21 February 2020 by John Smith, LOTR, Jared Liles, MTRX Gaming, Blank v2 and System Jones, the signers of the party's Declaration of Independence in the wake of a split from the Federalist Party. It was a party for conservative and libertarian policies. On March 26th of 2020, they merged with the Federalist Party after reforms to the party’s constitution were agreed upon.

Policies

The Conservative party were generally strong supporters of the right to bear arms, free market capitalism, free trade, border security, civil rights, state's rights and non-intervensionism. Most members of the party held a pro-life position in regards to abortion and believed life began at conception. The party was opposed to illegal immigration, the welfare state and high taxation, and believed in a single tax system using the Land Value Tax.


Merge

On 24 March 2020, the Conservative party leadership and Federalist Party leadership sat down with each other to negotiate a potential merge. Two days later and after compromises from both parties, they managed to reach a deal. The proposed merge was put up for a vote in both parties, it succeeded in the Federalist party but failed in the Conservative party with 64% voting against the merge out of 14 total voters. The Conservatives decided to reconsider the merge and after long discussions, enough people changed their vote to give the merge a majority.

The next day, on the 26th of March, the Conservative party was dissolved by a CNC vote and the Conservatives merged with the Federalists, becoming the only right-wing party.
