The Conservative Party of Borland (short: CPB; Borish: Conservative Partÿ op Borland) is a right-wing political party in Borland.
It was founded in 1938 out of a combination of two earlier parties. Until the 1960s, the Conservative Party would go on to win most elections, its main rival being the Workerʼs Party. This period in Borish politics was noteworthy for its conservatism (both social and fiscal), desecularisation and Borish nationalism. Between 1938 and 1969, all but one of the presidents of Borland came from the CPB, including Yoghen Rÿksman, Henrigh Aaman, Yorsk Arder and Willem Tylman. The party declined in a major way during Tylmanʼs second term, as it lost many of its urban seats in Newstead and Westhaven, being mostly limited to rural ones. Many traditional strongholds of the party are now strongholds of the Workerʼs Party, Centrum or the Borish Agrarian Party. Nevertheless, the Conservative Party maintains a strong position in the countryʼs political landscape.
The Conservative Party stands for social conservatism, with an emphasis on Sotirian democracy and family welfare. It generally takes a conservative approach to government spending and government involvement in the economy, supporting a regulated free market.
