'''Liveable Delland''' ({{wp|West Frisian language|Dellish}}: ''Leefber Dellân'', '''LD''') is a [[Dellish Community|Dellish]] {{wpl|Centrism|centrist}} political party in Alsland. The party is the successor to the pro-independence [[Alsland|Dellish Independence League]] and the liberal [[Alsland|Free-thinking People's Party of Delland]] which merged in 1973.

The party has historically been the largest advocate for Dellish independence. It advocated for gradual steps towards independence for the [[Dellish Community]] although it was split on whether to pursue independence as it's main goal or not. Under the leadership of [[Liekele Ykema]] the party dropped it's support for Dellish independence and instead became a solely liberal political party in Delland, as a result several pro-independence Senators formed the [[Future of Delland]] party to compete with Liveable Delland in the [[Folkssenaat]]. The party experienced it's two best election results in 2014 and 2018 when it won 27 seats and 29 seats respectively. Under the leadership of [[Hepke Veltman]] the party's popularity remained stable but after the 2020 Presidential election and the appointment of [[Eltsje Nicolai]] as the party's new leader the party's support dropped sharply.
The party was founded in 2005 originally as Liveable Yndyk for the [[Alsland|2005 Yndyk regional election]].

The party achieved an electoral breakthrough in [[Alsland|2010]] when it became the second largest party in the [[Folkssenaat]] and formed the first liberal-led government in Alsland led by Ykema. The party gained seats in [[Alsland|2014]] when it increased it's number of seats to 56. Ykema's government fell in 2018 and the party joined the opposition faction in the Folkssenaat. The party recovered in the [[2022 Alslandic legislative election]] where it won 41 seats and emerged as the largest party in the Folkssenaat for the first time.


Liveable Delland holds 3 out of Alsland's 24 seats in the [[Euclean Parliament]] and 29 in the [[Folkssenaat]]. It has been in government continuously since 2008. It is currently the largest opposition party in the [[Dellish Parliament]].
