In 1920 the Country Party was established as a national party led by <a href="/wiki/William_McWilliams" title="William McWilliams">William McWilliams</a> from Tasmania. In his first speech as leader, McWilliams laid out the principles of the new party, stating "we crave no alliance, we spurn no support but we intend drastic action to secure closer attention to the needs of primary producers"<sup id="cite_ref-autogenerated1_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-autogenerated1-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> McWilliams was deposed as party leader in favour of <a href="/wiki/Earle_Page" title="Earle Page">Earle Page</a> in April 1921, following instances where McWilliams voted against the party line.

D. Graham (1959), the graziers who operated the sheep stations were politically conservative. They disliked the Labor Party, which represented their workers, and feared that Labor governments would pass unfavorable legislation and listen to foreigners and communists. The graziers were satisfied with the marketing organisation of their industry, opposed any change in land tenure and labour relations, and advocated lower tariffs, low freight rates, and low taxes. On the other hand, Graham reports, the small farmers, not the graziers, founded the Country party. The farmers advocated government intervention in the market through price support schemes and marketing pools. The graziers often politically and financially supported the Country party, which in turn made the Country party more conservative.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Country Party's first election as a united party, in <a href="/wiki/1922_Australian_federal_election" title="1922 Australian federal election">1922</a>, saw it in an unexpected position of power. It won enough seats to deny the Nationalists an overall majority. It soon became apparent that the price for Country support would be a full-fledged coalition with the Nationalists. However, Page let it be known that his party would not serve under Hughes, and forced his resignation. Page then entered negotiations with the Nationalists' new leader, <a href="/wiki/Stanley_Bruce" title="Stanley Bruce">Stanley Bruce</a>, for a coalition government. Page wanted five seats for his Country Party in a Cabinet of 11, including the <a href="/wiki/Treasurer_of_Australia" title="Treasurer of Australia">Treasurer</a> portfolio and the second rank in the ministry for himself. These terms were unusually stiff for a prospective junior coalition partner in a Westminster system, and especially so for such a new party. Nonetheless, with no other politically realistic coalition partner available, Bruce readily agreed, and the "Bruce-Page Ministry" was formed. This began the tradition of the Country Party leader ranking second in Coalition cabinets.<sup id="cite_ref-Aitkin,_1972;_Graham,_1959_14-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Aitkin,_1972;_Graham,_1959-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Page remained dominant in the party until 1939, and briefly served as caretaker prime minister between the death of <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Lyons" title="Joseph Lyons">Joseph Lyons</a> and the election of <a href="/wiki/Robert_Menzies" title="Robert Menzies">Robert Menzies</a> as his successor. However, Page gave up the leadership rather than serve under Menzies. The coalition was re-formed under <a href="/wiki/Archie_Cameron" title="Archie Cameron">Archie Cameron</a> in 1940, and continued until October 1941 despite the election of <a href="/wiki/Arthur_Fadden" title="Arthur Fadden">Arthur Fadden</a> as leader after the 1940 election. Fadden was well regarded within conservative circles and proved to be a loyal deputy to Menzies in the difficult circumstances of 1941. When Menzies was forced to resign as prime minister, the UAP was so bereft of leadership that Fadden briefly succeeded him (despite the Country Party being the junior partner in the governing coalition). However, the two independents who had been propping up the government rejected Fadden's budget and brought the government down.<sup id="cite_ref-Davey_2006_19-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Davey_2006-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Fadden stood down in favour of Labor leader <a href="/wiki/John_Curtin" title="John Curtin">John Curtin</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_20-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Fadden-led Coalition made almost no headway against Curtin, and was severely defeated in the <a href="/wiki/1943_Australian_federal_election" title="1943 Australian federal election">1943 election</a>.

Indeed, in the lead up to the <a href="/wiki/1949_Australian_federal_election" title="1949 Australian federal election">1949 federal election</a>, Fadden played a key role in the defeat of the Chifley Labor government, frequently making inflammatory claims about the "socialist" nature of the Labor Party, which Menzies could then "clarify" or repudiate as he saw fit, thus appearing more "moderate". In 1949, Fadden became Treasurer in the second Menzies government and remained so until his retirement in 1958. His successful partnership with Menzies was one of the elements that sustained the coalition, which remained in office until 1972 (Menzies himself retired in 1966).<sup id="cite_ref-Davey_2006_19-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Davey_2006-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:John_McEwen_Swearing_In.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/John_McEwen_Swearing_In.jpg/220px-John_McEwen_Swearing_In.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="222" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/John_McEwen_Swearing_In.jpg/330px-John_McEwen_Swearing_In.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a7/John_McEwen_Swearing_In.jpg 2x" data-file-width="425" data-file-height="429" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/John_McEwen" title="John McEwen">John McEwen</a> being sworn in as Prime Minister on 19 December 1967.</figcaption></figure> <p>Fadden's successor, <a href="/wiki/Minister_for_Trade_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Minister for Trade (Australia)">Trade Minister</a> <a href="/wiki/John_McEwen" title="John McEwen">John McEwen</a>, took the then unusual step of declining to serve as Treasurer, believing he could better ensure that the interests of Australian primary producers were safeguarded.

In addition to this, he insisted on developing an all-encompassing system of tariff protection that would encourage the development of those secondary industries that would "value add" Australia's primary produce. His success in this endeavour is sometimes dubbed "McEwenism".

"Countrymindedness" grew out of the failure of the country areas to participate in the rapid economic and population expansions that occurred after 1890. The growth of the ideology into urban areas came as most country people migrated to jobs in the cities. Its decline was due mainly to the reduction of real and psychological differences between country and city brought about by the postwar expansion of the Australian urban population and to the increased affluence and technological changes that accompanied it.<sup id="cite_ref-51" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-51"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>40<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>41<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Nationals vote is in decline and its traditional supporters are turning instead to prominent independents such as <a href="/wiki/Bob_Katter" title="Bob Katter">Bob Katter</a>, <a href="/wiki/Tony_Windsor" title="Tony Windsor">Tony Windsor</a> and <a href="/wiki/Peter_Andren" title="Peter Andren">Peter Andren</a> in <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_Australia" title="Parliament of Australia">Federal Parliament</a> and similar independents in the Parliaments of <a href="/wiki/New_South_Wales" title="New South Wales">New South Wales</a>, <a href="/wiki/Queensland" title="Queensland">Queensland</a> and <a href="/wiki/Victoria_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Victoria (Australia)">Victoria</a>, many of whom are former members of the National Party.
