Nea Demokratia

Nea Demokratia (ND) was founded in 2474. It is a registered party in the Federal Republic of Kalistan. Nea Demokratia, the Federal Republic of Kalistan's leading conservative party, supports maximum liberty in both personal and economic matters. We advocate a much smaller government; one that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence. The LCP tends to embrace individual responsibility, oppose government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties. Although Nea Demokratia's ideology is "radical classical liberalism," Nea Demokratia believes in "the prevalence of free market rules with the decisive intervention of the state in favor of social justice."
