The United Liberalist Party is a Centre, Centre-left federative political party in Ornivia and is the main political party advocating for Liberalism in Ornivia. The party is a Federation of Liberal parties found across Ornivia's Member-States, and was formed in 2010. It is the largest party in Ornivian Politics within its multi-party system, and currently governs the Federation under a coalition with the Alliance of Ornivian Progressives.

It can trace its roots to political and philosophical thought formed in the early 19th century, advocating in part for greater individual rights, the rule of law, and the idea of the Social Contract in the nations of the Ornivian region. These ideas were contrasted with Nationalism and Militarism that became popular in the middle to late 19th century, and it was these ideas that became more or less mainstream within Ornivian politics by the start of the 20th century. As a result, Liberalism (among other ideas) were forced underground by the increasing scope of police-states and intellectual suppression. This resulted in Liberalism never having popular support within the region until the Spring of Ornivia, and was only present within certain intellectual circles.

This was the status quo until the Great Ornivian War, where the increasingly destablised situation meant that suppression in Ornivian nations was becoming more and more ineffective. This, among other things, lead to an explosion in support for alternative ideas, Liberalism especially, culminating in the Spring of Ornivia. After this event, many Liberal parties were founded and took control of most nations in the region, which set up the first free and fair elections and Civil Rights in the region-wide history. Overtime, Liberalism would begin to support Ornivian integration, and formed a region wide Association of Liberal Parties. In the early 2000s, Liberals would be the most vocal supporters of Federation, and formed the United Liberalist Party in 2010 ahead of the Federation Conference in 2015. Its first leader and one of the founders is Kevin Hartley, who would become the future President of Ornivia. The party is the largest party in the Ornivian Parliament as of the 2025 Parliamentary Election, and has formed a government coalition with the Alliance of Ornivian Progressives.

The United Liberalist Party follows Liberalism as developed in Ornivian history, that being New Liberalism. The party advocates for the Social Market Economy (Known as Ornivian Capitalism in Ornivia). In Social Policy, the party has advocated for an strong enabling state, universal healthcare and social support. This is all present to maximize the Liberty of citizens, as argued by the proponents of Positive Freedom, which the majority party has historically supported. The party has also historically advocated for the protection and enhancement of minority rights and socially liberal policy, such as abortion and LGBTQ rights. The party was one of the main advocates for a strong Federation and now supports membership in the Telrovan Assembly and the formation of a South Elisian Regional Organisation.
