The National Party of Carucere is a centrist political party in Carucere. The de-facto successor to the Democratic Party, the party supports moderate and economically liberal policies. The party's ideology has been referred to as classical liberal, social liberal, conservative-liberal, and liberal conservative. The party's main policies revolve around the economy, such as supporting greater economic integration with the rest of the Arucian Cooperation Organization and the wider region. Although it officially does not support any particular ethnic group, the Creole communities continues to be its largest voter base.

The National Party was founded in 1994 as the successor to the Democratic Party, to reinvent itself as a moderate, mainstream conservative, and multiethnic federal party in order to distance itself from its predecessors history. Despite its embrace of moderate politics, the rebranding initially only had a minor impact in public support outside its traditional base. In 2016, the party's congress elected David Jonas to be the party's first Bahian Carucerean leader, and promoted the party beyond its original base. Today the National Party is the largest opposition party and has been in the governing coalition once between 2014 to 2018.
