The Liberal Party (and its predecessors) and the National Party (formerly the Country Party and National Country Party) have been in a coalition at the federal level for all but a few years since 1923. In most parts of Australia, the Liberal Party is the larger party, concentrated in urban areas, with the Nationals a junior partner operating exclusively in rural and regional areas. Competition between the two is thus minimised as the two attempt to win more seats combined than the <a href="/wiki/Australian_Labor_Party" title="Australian Labor Party">Australian Labor Party</a>. </p><p>However, Queensland is Australia's second most decentralised state (after <a href="/wiki/Tasmania" title="Tasmania">Tasmania</a>). Like most state capitals in Australia, Brisbane is far and away Queensland's largest urban centre; it has more than double the population of the next largest urbanised area, the <a href="/wiki/Gold_Coast,_Queensland" title="Gold Coast, Queensland">Gold Coast</a>, and is five times as large as the third-largest, the <a href="/wiki/Sunshine_Coast,_Queensland" title="Sunshine Coast, Queensland">Sunshine Coast</a>. However, only around 45% of the state's population lives in the Brisbane area. Unlike the rest of Australia, a larger portion of Queensland's population is distributed either in regional cities like <a href="/wiki/Toowoomba" title="Toowoomba">Toowoomba</a>, <a href="/wiki/Rockhampton" title="Rockhampton">Rockhampton</a>, <a href="/wiki/Townsville" title="Townsville">Townsville</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mackay,_Queensland" title="Mackay, Queensland">Mackay</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gladstone,_Queensland" title="Gladstone, Queensland">Gladstone</a> and <a href="/wiki/Cairns" title="Cairns">Cairns</a>, or in rural areas. As such, the urban-rural divide is not as pronounced in Queensland as in the rest of Australia; in other states, 60% or more of the population lives in and around the state's capital city. </p><p>Historically, the Country/National Party was stronger in these regional centres than the Liberals. As a result, the Nationals had more seats than the Liberals and their predecessors, and had been the senior partner in the non-Labor Coalition since 1924. This division into urban, regional and rural areas was, for most of the twentieth century, reflected in <a href="/wiki/Electoral_system_of_Australia#Gerrymandering_and_malapportionment" title="Electoral system of Australia">a system of malapportionment</a> that made it easier for rural-based parties to win more seats in Parliament. </p><p>The formation of the LNP was actually the third attempt to unite the non-Labor side in Queensland. In 1925, the United Party — the Queensland branch of the urban-based <a href="/wiki/Nationalist_Party_of_Australia" class="mw-redirect" title="Nationalist Party of Australia">Nationalist Party</a> — and the Country Party merged as the <a href="/wiki/Country_and_Progressive_National_Party" title="Country and Progressive National Party">Country and Progressive National Party</a>. This party won government in 1929 under former Queensland Country leader <a href="/wiki/Arthur_Edward_Moore" title="Arthur Edward Moore">Arthur Edward Moore</a>, but was defeated in 1932 and split apart in 1936. In 1941, the Queensland divisions of the <a href="/wiki/United_Australia_Party" title="United Australia Party">United Australia Party</a> and Country Party merged as the <a href="/wiki/Country-National_Organisation" title="Country-National Organisation">Country-National Organisation</a>, under <a href="/wiki/Frank_Nicklin" title="Frank Nicklin">Frank Nicklin</a> of the Country side.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, this merger only lasted until 1944.<sup id="cite_ref-autogenerated1968_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-autogenerated1968-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the 1970s, the Country Party began running candidates in the more urbanised <a href="/wiki/South_East_Queensland" title="South East Queensland">south-east corner</a> of the state, including the Brisbane area, in direct competition with the Liberals. This was part of a larger strategy by the federal party to expand its base outside of rural areas — reflected in successive name changes to the National Country Party in 1975 and the National Party in 1982. The state party had actually changed its name to the National Party in 1974 as part of its effort to broaden its reach. </p><p>After more than a decade of increasingly fraught relations, the Liberals pulled out of the Coalition in 1983. The Nationals came up one seat short of a majority in their own right in <a href="/wiki/1983_Queensland_state_election" title="1983 Queensland state election">the election held later that year</a>. The Nationals then persuaded two Liberals to defect to them, and governed alone until their defeat in <a href="/wiki/1989_Queensland_state_election" title="1989 Queensland state election">1989</a>. </p><p>In 1992, the electoral system was changed to <a href="/wiki/Optional_Preferential_Voting" class="mw-redirect" title="Optional Preferential Voting">Optional Preferential Voting</a>, meaning that three-cornered contests between Liberal, National and Labor candidates became much more likely to see Labor candidates win. The other change in 1992 was the end of the old zonal electoral system for the <a href="/wiki/Legislative_Assembly_of_Queensland" title="Legislative Assembly of Queensland">Legislative Assembly</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Unicameralism" title="Unicameralism">sole chamber</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_Queensland" title="Parliament of Queensland">state's parliament</a>. As a result, 40 of the 89 seats—almost half of the seats in the legislature—were now based in Brisbane. The Liberals and Nationals signed a renewed Coalition agreement in November 1992, two months after Labor easily won a second term. However, it was all but impossible to win a majority government without a substantial base in Brisbane, something that was difficult for the Coalition to do since the Nationals were the senior partner. Brisbane's increased share of the legislature made it politically difficult to win even a minority government without winning a significant share of the capital's seats. Labor was in government for all but three years from 1989 to 2012 in large part because it won at least 30 seats in greater Brisbane at every election. Even when it was briefly consigned to opposition by the <a href="/wiki/Rob_Borbidge" title="Rob Borbidge">Rob Borbidge</a>-led Coalition from 1996 to 1998, Labor still won 31 seats in Brisbane.<sup id="cite_ref-preview_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-preview-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/1995_Queensland_state_election" title="1995 Queensland state election">1995 state election</a> proved just how difficult it was for the Coalition to win during this time. While it actually won a slim majority of the two-party vote, much of that margin was wasted on landslides in the Nationals' heartland. As mentioned above, Labor won 31 seats in Brisbane, allowing it to eke out a one-seat majority. The Labor majority was lost altogether a few months later in a by-election, but the Coalition was only able to form a minority government by a margin of one seat with the support of independent <a href="/wiki/Liz_Cunningham" title="Liz Cunningham">Liz Cunningham</a>. This underscored how difficult the 1992 reforms made it to form even a minority government without a substantial base in Brisbane. The situation became worse with the emergence of other forces on the right such as <a href="/wiki/Pauline_Hanson%27s_One_Nation" title="Pauline Hanson's One Nation">Pauline Hanson's One Nation</a> and the <a href="/wiki/City_Country_Alliance" title="City Country Alliance">City Country Alliance</a>, and the advocacy by the Labor Party under <a href="/wiki/Peter_Beattie" title="Peter Beattie">Peter Beattie</a> starting in 2001 of a "just vote 1" strategy that caused non-Labor preferences to exhaust instead of leaking to other non-Labor candidates. By the turn of the millennium, many members of both parties felt that a merger would reduce harmful competition between non-Labor candidates and to increase the chances of winning seats in Brisbane from Labor. </p><p>The Queensland Liberals and Nationals had contested separately for the Senate in federal elections until the <a href="/wiki/2007_Australian_federal_election" title="2007 Australian federal election">2007 election</a>, when they ran a join Senate ticket for the first time in 30 years.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Liberal_National_Party">Liberal National Party</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Liberal_National_Party_of_Queensland&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Liberal National Party"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>On 30 May 2008, an agreement in principle to merge was established between the Queensland divisions of the Liberal and National parties.

Overall, the LNP won 78 seats to Labor's seven, the largest majority government in Queensland history. Newman won Ashgrove on a swing of 12.7 percent, almost double what he needed to take the seat off Labor.

Labor took 31 seats off the LNP, and came within one seat of rebounding from only nine seats at dissolution to an outright majority. One of the LNP casualties was Newman, who became just the second Queensland premier since Federation to lose his own seat.
