The Centre Party (Azmaran: Midelpartii, Mp) is an agrarian and Sotirian-democratic political party in Azmara.
The party was formed in 1945 through a merger of the Sotirian humanist Freethinkers' Party and the agrarian Farmers' Party with the goal of acting as a united voice in favour of Azmaran rural communities against what its founders perceived as an urban-centric political establishment. It would enter government in 1954 alongside Gold Flame in Azmara's first centre-right government since the Great War and has served in government several times since, supplying three Thingspeakers despite being absent from power 1969-1981 and 1987-2005. It currently serves in the government of Freidrik Aleksaanderssun, with party leader Henrik Jorśsun serving as Deputy Thingspeaker and Internal Affairs Secretary.
Due to its roots in rural communities, the party has been historically most popular within rural areas of the country, especially those with a relatively small presence of organised labour, with the party traditionally gaining its best results in the provinces of Westmaark, Nordberg and Hytklif and traditionally underperforming in urban areas of the country such as the central Bojnersteden region. It is an affiliate to the Modern Democrats – Euclean Centre Party on an international level, while its MEPs sit with the Alliance of Conservatives and Democrats for Euclea.
