Christian Social Party (Austria)

The Christian Social Party (German: Christlichsoziale Partei, CS) is a major conservative party founded in the Cisleithanian lands of Austria-Hungary. It is the most influential party in the Republic of Austria. The party is affiliated with Austrian nationalism, seeking to keep the state of Austria outside of the unified German state founded in 1871. The party also upholds a Catholic religious identity, which it uses to differentiate Austrians from the predominantly Protestant Germans. Category:Austrian political parties
