The National Front (Afthonian: Εθνικό Μέτωπο; script: Ethnikó Métopo), commonly abbreviated as NP or Nationals, is the largest and dominant political party in Afthonia. It has been in government since country's reorganization from the Afthonian Confederation to the Greater Afthonian State on November 17, 1960. The party sits on the right-wing of the political spectrum although a small but growing moderate element within the party has gradually shifted it closer to the center-right since 2015 in some policy areas. The party's official ideology is rooted in four main pillars: Afthonain nationalism, conservatism, economic liberalism and militarism. The party is divided into two unofficial factions: traditionalists who represent the majority of the party's membership and generally are more right-wing, and the progressives who are a small but growing and vocal minority and lean more towards the center-right. The party was founded by Alexis Terzelis, a retired general from Afthonia's armed forces andformer leader of the National Party of Stratos on April 12, 1955. Alexis filled the party's leadership position with many former members of the military largely due to this military background which resulted in a majority of his connections being people who were either members or had ties with the military. The party's establishment was done with the assistance and endorsement of Afthonia's ruling emergency military government in preparation of the gradual restoration of a democratically elected civilian government towards what was seen as the inevitable reunification of Afthonia under the Afthonian Confederation. International observers have alleged that the Afthonian Armed Forces saw the party as a potential extension and continuation of its influence even long after civilian rule has been restored, to which both the military and party has denied. When reunification was completed and the confederation was reorganized into the Greater Afthonian State the nation held, what contemporary historians consider, as the new country's only free and fair election. The Nationals won a majority of the votes and gained 55% of seats in the National Assembly, with its primary opponent the Worker's Union winning 37%.
