The '''Free Besmenian Citizen's Party''' (Besmenian: ''Freie Besmenische Bürgerpartei'', '''FBBP''') is a liberal party in [[Besmenia]].


The FBBP was founded in 1930, after the [[Besmenian Democratic Party]] and the [[Besmenian Freedom Party]] merged into a common party. As early as the [[1928 East Besmenian federal election]], both parties stood for election as a party alliance under the name ''Free Citizen's''. While the FBBP pursued a right-wing liberal and libertarian policy from its foundation until the mid-1960s, the transformation into a more centric-liberal party began in 1964 under the party chairman [[Jürgen Rothmann]]. Under [[Martin Beiter]], there was an increasing social liberal orientation. Today the party sits on the political spectrum between Center and Center-Left.
The FBBP was founded in 1964 as the successor party to the national liberal [[Liberal Citizen's Party of Besmenia]] (LBB), after [[Jürgen Rothmann]] became chairman of the LBB in 1963, and a transition to a more centre-liberal orientation began. Under [[Martin Beiter]], there was an increasing social liberal orientation. Today the party sits on the political spectrum between center and center-Left. Since the 1980s, the FBBP has managed to develop into a popular party and has also managed to be the strongest or second-strongest party in [[Federal Chamber (Besmenia)|Federal Chamber]] elections.


The FBBP was the strongest party in the [[Federal Chamber (Besmenia)|Federal Chamber]] from 1944 to 1956. After the [[1956 East Besmenian federal election|1956 election]], the party was defeated by the BVP, and always came third in elections after 1956. At the [[1976 Besmenian federal election|1976 election]], the FBBP managed to become the second strongest party since 1940. In [[1980 Besmenian federal election|1980]] the party managed to be the strongest party for the first time since 1952. After the 1980 election, the FBBP always managed to become the first or second strongest party and has been able to defend its reputation as a people's party ever since.
The FBBP was involved in the federal government from 1980 to 1993, from 2001 to 2012, and most recently from 2016 to 2021. The party is one of the three major contemporary political parties in Besmenia along with the [[Besmenian People's Party]] and the [[Social Democratic Union (Besmenia)|Social Democratic Union]].

From 1940 to 1944 and from 2016 to 2021, the party was a junior partner under a prime minister of the BVP or provided the head of government itself with [[Albrecht Neumann]], [[Martin Beiter]], [[Ursula Kummstein]] and [[Jörg Rautenberg]].

The Free Besmenian Citizen's Party (Besmenian: Freie Besmenische Bürgerpartei, FBBP) is a liberal party in Besmenia.

The FBBP was founded in 1964 as the successor party to the national liberal Liberal Citizen's Party of Besmenia (LBB), after Jürgen Rothmann became chairman of the LBB in 1963, and a transition to a more centre-liberal orientation began. Under Martin Beiter, there was an increasing social liberal orientation. Today the party sits on the political spectrum between center and center-Left. Since the 1980s, the FBBP has managed to develop into a popular party and has also managed to be the strongest or second-strongest party in Federal Chamber elections.

The FBBP was involved in the federal government from 1980 to 1993, from 2001 to 2012, and most recently from 2016 to 2021. The party is one of the three major contemporary political parties in Besmenia along with the Besmenian People's Party and the Social Democratic Union.
