The Conservative Action Party is a political party in the United Kingdom of Malgrave. It is currently the third largest political party in the Chamber of Representatives and the Chamber of Supervisors.
History
The Conservative Action Party was created in 1959 due to the merge of the Conservative Party and the Action Party. At that time the Conservative Party was suffering, having last held a position of power since 1920 since then being a constant official opposition or third largest political party, recent regional political results in which the Conservative Party was traditionally strong however were weak threatening to create an environment in which the party declined into a state of destruction. At the same time the head of the Action Party was seeking further ways to enhance his parties and his personal political influence and despite the fact the Action Party did quite poorly the national elections as well finishing just above the Agricultural Coalition it managed to do quite well in the countries regional elections stealing quite a few seat from prospective Conservative and even Technology Party politicians. During a meeting in 1958 Joe Walsh the then leader of the Action Party had the first of many meetings with the leadership of the Conservative Party and over many negotiations in which political positions were tweaked and potential positions were settled it was eventually announced that the two parties would merge and form the Conservative Action Party.
Although for some time it seemed that the merger would not be successful with minor regional election results in late 1958 proving to be quite disappointing the merge proved to be successful when in the 1960 National Elections the newly formed Conservative Action Party won the election with a small majority, since then the Conservative Action Party has been elected into government a total of three times and has been the countries official opposition party since 1994.
