The National People's Party (Hennish: Nationale Volkspartij) is a centre-right political party in Hennehouwe. The NVP is the main conservative party in Hennehouwe supporting Sotirian democracy whilst maintaining more liberal and conservative factions.
The NVP was formed in 1999 as a merger of the Catholic National Sotirian Party and Amendist Party of the Right after the two can formed an electoral alliance from 1990. It ruled from its creation until 2002 when it was ousted by the Socialist Labour Party entering a period of opposition. It returned to power in 2010 when the NVP formed a centre-right coalition with the Progressive Democrats. In 2014 the NVP was re-elected but formed a more right-wing coalition with the Party of Values and Catholic Action parties. At the 2018 elections however the NVP suffered a crushing defeat going from the largest to third largest party in the States-General, losing a large amount of voters to the right-wing populist Patriot's March.
The NVP under its current leader Fabian van Aitzema has moved the party in a more right-wing direction being more supportive of economic liberalism. Nevertheless it remains a predominantly centre-right party. The NVP is a member of the Alliance of Conservatives and Democrats for Euclea.
