The Conservative Party (Spanish: Partido Conservador) is a conservative political party in Dania. It was founded on 12 October 1899, making it the longest active political party in Dania. 
== History ==
=== Foundation and first elections ===
The Conservative Party was founded in 1899 by Hortun de Pedrosa, Samuel Varas and Nicolas Pavia and several less important members of the Liberal Party that split from the party. De Pedrosa became the leader of the party, with Pavia being the chairman. The conservatives turned against Galvázism and opposed liberal views of the Liberal leadership.
The first time the party participated in an election was in 1901. Hortun de Pedrosa was the leader and visited many cities in Dania to attract voters. The party received 203,299 votes, which amounted to 19 seats in the house of representatives.
In the 1901 election, the Workers' Party did not win enough seats to get a majority rule. The Conservative Party became the coalition partner during the Second Agramonte cabinet. The choice was made by mostly the leaders of the party and was highly controversial with the rest of the party. Guillen de Aça became the co-first minister of Dania. In the 1905 election, the party gained 22 seats, but did not return in the goverment due to the Workers' Party getting a majority in the house. De Pedrosa's popularity in the party took a big hit despite the party's growth.
=== 1908-1938: First presidency and pre-dictatorship ===
In 1908, Hortun de Pedrosa chose Varas as his successor as leader of the Conservative Party. The appointment of Varas was backed by the Conservative Party leadership. Varas became a very popular political figure after serving as Minister of Finance in the Second Agramonte cabinet.
The Conservative Party won the majority in the 1911 election under Varas. He became the first conservative president of Dania and chose Hortun de Pedrosa as his First Minister.
In September 1918, Emanuel Vigo became the leader mainly since the favourite candidate Nicolas Pavia died three weeks before the election. The Conservative Party lost the 1919 election under Vigo and lost 85 seats. Vigo remained party leader till the start of the 1923 campaign when Vigo stepped down.
Famous First Isladanic War general Dante Cotilla was elected party leader in 1922. The conservative Party finished second in the 1923 election with 60 seats. Cotilla won teh 1927 election due to President Antonio Tosora's weak successor. Cotilla only wanted to serve one term.
=== 1938-1974: Jaime del Pozo dictatorship ===
=== 1974-1990: Post-dictatorship decline ===
=== 1990-present: Revival and 21st-century ===
== Ideology ==
The Conservative Party is in favor of fiscal conservatism and advocates for free markets. The Conservative Party aligns with business interests. 
The Conservative Party is mainly for an isolationist foreign policy. It supports Dalanic membership of the Isladanic Community of Nations and wants a leading role of Dania in the organization. The Conservative Party is against opening ties with Sagofagia.
The Conservative Party is associated with social conservative policies. The party supports laws that uphold traditional values, such as opposition to same-sex marriage, abortion, and marijuana.
