The Besmenian Republican Party (Besmenian: Besmenische Republikanische Partei, BRP) was a right-wing and national-conservative political party in Besmenia, which existed from 1957 to 1990.
Starting as a breakaway party of the Besmenian Conservative Party in 1957, the BRP has been represented in all state parliaments since its foundation. The party was permanently represented in the Federal Chamber from 1960 to 1989. Support for the party was at its highest in the 1960s and 1970s, with its share of the votes reaching around more then 10% in some parliamentary elections and the involvement as junior coalition partner of the Besmenian People's Party in the first and second government of Robert Gleitzmann from 1972 to 1980. The BRP's stronghold was Greuningia, where the party achieved its best result in a party election with 23.5% in the 1975 state election. Due to financial, intra-party conflicts and the Huthmacher affair in 1978, the support of the BRP plummeted significantly in the 1980s. The party lost importance in the late 1980s at the latest when it failed to regain seats in some state parliaments, and especially in the 1989 federal election, where the BRP failed to regain seats in the Federal Chamber for the first time with 4.8%. The BRP was dissolved in May 1990 and succeeded by the National Besmenian Party as part of a reorganization under its last chairman Alexander von Wiest.
The BRP represented right-wing conservative, right-wing populist and right-wing extremist views. After reunification, the BRP has become a melting pot for former BNU supporters, which has led to the existence of a Ochsenbeinist faction within the party which left the party in 1984 and founded the Besmenian Ochsenbein Party.
