The Liberal Party, abbreviated LP, is one of the three major contemporary political parties of Wizlandia, along with its main political rivals the Social Democratic Party and the National Party. It is currently in a coalition government with the Social Democratic Party.

The Liberal Party ideology is Liberalism, which incorporates economic liberal, cultural liberal, and civil libertarian positions. On economic issues the Liberal Party favours low broad-base taxation, a free market economy with minimal economic regulations, trade liberalisation, carbon pricing, and maintaining the current Universal Catastrophic Coverage healthcare system. On social issues, the Liberal Party is strongly civil libertarian, supporting open immigration, drug legalisation, legalisation of prostitution, gay marriage, polygamy, internet freedom, freedom of speech, and freedom of association. The majority of Liberals favour a Liberal Interventionist foreign policy of pressuring illiberal nations to adopt liberal and democratic reforms, and also favour continued membership in the World Assembly, although there is a significant faction of non-interventionists in the party.
