From the establishment of the <a href="/wiki/National_Liberal_Party_(Germany)" title="National Liberal Party (Germany)">National Liberal Party</a> in 1867 until the demise of the <a href="/wiki/Weimar_Republic" title="Weimar Republic">Weimar Republic</a> in 1933, the liberal-democratic camp was divided into a "<a href="/wiki/National_liberalism" title="National liberalism">national-liberal</a>" and a "left-liberal" line of tradition. After 1918 the national-liberal strain was represented by the <a href="/wiki/German_People%27s_Party" title="German People&#39;s Party">German People's Party</a> (DVP), the left-liberal one by the <a href="/wiki/German_Democratic_Party" title="German Democratic Party">German Democratic Party</a> (DDP, which merged into the <a href="/wiki/German_State_Party" title="German State Party">German State Party</a> in 1930). Both parties played an important role in government during the Weimar Republic era, but successively lost votes during the rise of the <a href="/wiki/Nazi_Party" title="Nazi Party">Nazi Party</a> beginning in the late-1920s. After the <a href="/wiki/Nazi_seizure_of_power" class="mw-redirect" title="Nazi seizure of power">Nazi seizure of power</a>, both liberal parties agreed to the <a href="/wiki/Enabling_Act_of_1933" title="Enabling Act of 1933">Enabling Act of 1933</a> and subsequently dissolved themselves. During the 12 years of Hitler's rule, some former liberals collaborated with the Nazis (e.g. economy minister <a href="/wiki/Hjalmar_Schacht" title="Hjalmar Schacht">Hjalmar Schacht</a>), while others resisted actively against Nazism, with some Liberal leaning members and former members of the military joining up with <a href="/wiki/Henning_von_Tresckow" title="Henning von Tresckow">Henning von Tresckow</a> (e.g. the <a href="/wiki/Solf_Circle" title="Solf Circle">Solf Circle</a>). </p><p>Soon after World War II, the Soviet Union pushed for the creation of licensed "<a href="/wiki/Anti_fascism" class="mw-redirect" title="Anti fascism">anti-fascist</a>" parties in <a href="/wiki/Soviet_occupation_zone" class="mw-redirect" title="Soviet occupation zone">its occupation zone</a> in East Germany. In July 1945, former DDP politicians <a href="/wiki/Wilhelm_K%C3%BClz" title="Wilhelm Külz">Wilhelm Külz</a>, <a href="/wiki/Eugen_Schiffer" title="Eugen Schiffer">Eugen Schiffer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Waldemar_Koch" title="Waldemar Koch">Waldemar Koch</a> called for the establishment of a pan-German liberal party. Their <a href="/wiki/Liberal_Democratic_Party_of_Germany" title="Liberal Democratic Party of Germany">Liberal-Democratic Party</a> (LDP) was soon licensed by the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Military_Administration_in_Germany" title="Soviet Military Administration in Germany">Soviet Military Administration in Germany</a>, under the condition that the new party joined the pro-Soviet "<a href="/wiki/Democratic_Bloc_(East_Germany)" title="Democratic Bloc (East Germany)">Democratic Bloc</a>". </p><p>In September 1945, citizens in <a href="/wiki/Hamburg" title="Hamburg">Hamburg</a>—including the anti-Nazi resistance circle "Association Free Hamburg"—established the <i>Party of Free Democrats</i> (PFD) as a <a href="/wiki/Bourgeois" class="mw-redirect" title="Bourgeois">bourgeois</a> left-wing party and the first liberal Party in the Western occupation zones. The German Democratic Party was revived in some states of the Western occupation zones (in the Southwestern states of <a href="/wiki/W%C3%BCrttemberg-Baden" title="Württemberg-Baden">Württemberg-Baden</a> and <a href="/wiki/W%C3%BCrttemberg-Hohenzollern" title="Württemberg-Hohenzollern">Württemberg-Hohenzollern</a> under the name of <a href="/wiki/Democratic_People%27s_Party_(Germany)" title="Democratic People&#39;s Party (Germany)">Democratic People's Party</a>). </p><p>Many former members of DDP and DVP however agreed to finally overcome the traditional split of German liberalism into a national-liberal and a left-liberal branch, aiming for the creation of a united liberal party.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In October 1945 a liberal coalition party was founded in the state of <a href="/wiki/Bremen" title="Bremen">Bremen</a> under the name of Bremen Democratic People's Party. In January 1946, liberal state parties of the <a href="/wiki/British_occupation_zone" class="mw-redirect" title="British occupation zone">British occupation zone</a> merged into the <i>Free Democratic Party of the British Zone</i> (FDP). A similar state party in <a href="/wiki/Hesse" title="Hesse">Hesse</a>, called the Liberal Democratic Party, was licensed by the <a href="/wiki/Office_of_Military_Government,_United_States" title="Office of Military Government, United States">U.S. military government</a> in January 1946.

The LDP was especially strong in the October 1946 state elections of the Soviet zone—the last free parliamentary election in East Germany—obtaining an average of 24.6% (highest in Saxony-Anhalt, 29.9%, and Thuringia, 28.5%), thwarting an absolute majority of the <a href="/wiki/Socialist_Unity_Party_of_Germany" title="Socialist Unity Party of Germany">Socialist Unity Party of Germany</a> (SED) that was favoured by the Soviet occupation power. This disappointment to the communists however led to a change of electoral laws in the Soviet zone, cutting the autonomy of non-socialist parties including the LDP and forcing it to join the SED-dominated <a href="/wiki/National_Front_(East_Germany)" class="mw-redirect" title="National Front (East Germany)">National Front</a>, making it a dependent "<a href="/wiki/Bloc_party_(politics)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bloc party (politics)">bloc party</a>". </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_of_Germany" title="Democratic Party of Germany">Democratic Party of Germany</a> (DPD) was established in <a href="/wiki/Rothenburg_ob_der_Tauber" title="Rothenburg ob der Tauber">Rothenburg ob der Tauber</a> on 17 March 1947 as a pan-German party of liberals from all four occupation zones.

On 1 October, the FDP and CDU/CSU were able to oust Schmidt and replace him with CDU party chairman Helmut Kohl as the new Chancellor. The coalition change resulted in severe internal conflicts, and the FDP then lost about 20 percent of its 86,500 members, as reflected in the general election in 1983 by a drop from 10.6 percent to 7.0 percent. The members went mostly to the SPD, the Greens and newly formed splinter parties, such as the left-liberal party <a href="/wiki/Liberal_Democrats_(Germany)" title="Liberal Democrats (Germany)">Liberal Democrats</a> (LD). The exiting members included the former FDP General Secretary and later EU Commissioner <a href="/wiki/G%C3%BCnter_Verheugen" title="Günter Verheugen">Günter Verheugen</a>. At the party convention in November 1982, the <a href="/wiki/Schleswig-Holstein" title="Schleswig-Holstein">Schleswig-Holstein</a> state chairman <a href="/wiki/Uwe_Ronneburger" title="Uwe Ronneburger">Uwe Ronneburger</a> challenged <a href="/wiki/Hans-Dietrich_Genscher" title="Hans-Dietrich Genscher">Hans-Dietrich Genscher</a> as party chairman. Ronneburger received 186 of the votes—about 40 percent—and was just narrowly defeated by Genscher. </p><p>in 1980, FDP members who did not agree with the politics of the FDP youth organization <a href="/wiki/JungdemokratInnen/Junge_Linke" title="JungdemokratInnen/Junge Linke">Young Democrats</a> founded the <a href="/wiki/Young_Liberals_(Germany)" title="Young Liberals (Germany)">Young Liberals</a> (JuLis). For a time JuLis and the Young Democrats operated side by side, until the JuLis became the sole official youth wing of the FDP in 1983. The Young Democrats split from the FDP and were left as a party-independent youth organization. </p><p>At the time of reunification, the FDP's objective was a special economic zone in the former East Germany, but could not prevail against the CDU/CSU, as this would prevent any loss of votes in the five new federal states in the general election in 1990. </p><p>In all federal election campaigns since the 1980s, the party sided with the CDU and CSU, the main conservative parties in Germany. Following German reunification in 1990, the FDP merged with the <a href="/wiki/Association_of_Free_Democrats" title="Association of Free Democrats">Association of Free Democrats</a>, a grouping of liberals from <a href="/wiki/East_Germany" title="East Germany">East Germany</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Liberal_Democratic_Party_of_Germany" title="Liberal Democratic Party of Germany">Liberal Democratic Party of Germany</a>. </p><p>During the political upheavals of 1989/1990 in the <a href="/wiki/East_Germany" title="East Germany">GDR</a> new liberal parties emerged, like the FDP East Germany or the German Forum Party. They formed the Liberal Democratic Party, who had previously acted as a <a href="/wiki/Bloc_party_(politics)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bloc party (politics)">bloc party</a> on the side of the SED and with <a href="/wiki/Manfred_Gerlach" title="Manfred Gerlach">Manfred Gerlach</a> also the last Council of State of the GDR presented, the <a href="/wiki/Alliance_of_Free_Democrats" title="Alliance of Free Democrats">Alliance of Free Democrats</a> (BFD). Within the FDP came in the following years to considerable internal discussions about dealing with the former bloc party. Even before the reunification of Germany united on a joint congress in Hanover, the West German FDP united with the other parties to form the first all-German party. Both party factions brought the FDP a great, albeit short-lived, increase in membership. In the first all-German Bundestag elections, the CDU/CSU/FDP centre-right coalition was confirmed, the FDP received 11.0 percent of the valid votes (79 seats) and won in Genschers city of birth <a href="/wiki/Halle_(Saale)" title="Halle (Saale)">Halle</a> (Saale) the first direct mandate since 1957. </p><p>During the 1990s, the FDP won between 6.2 and 11 percent of the vote in Bundestag elections.
