Centre Party (Sweden, 1924)

A long-time peace advocate connected to the International Peace Bureau, Dr. Nilsson promoted world language (Ido) and world culture.

The concerned Social Democrats protested against Dr. Nilsson's move, as he had put them on the ballot without their consent.

[5] The Civilization Party obtained 447 votes in the municipal elections in Örebro in 1926.

After Dr. Nilsson's death in 1940, the abortionist Dr. Olofsson took over as editor of Centerbladet.

A delegation of the Farmers' League (including the national party secretary Gunnar Jonnergård) hastily travelled to Örebro to meet the registered representative of the seemingly defunct party to acquire the permission to take over the name.
