Democratic People's Party (Germany)

It is not to be confused with the Deutsche Volkspartei of 1918, which used the same abbreviation DVP.

It became the Deutsche Volkspartei (German People's Party) for the regions of southern Germany in 1868.

After the Second World War, liberals in the State of Württemberg-Baden refounded a party with the name Demokratische Volkspartei.

For historical reasons, the state party in Baden-Württemberg still uses the old name together with the national name (FDP/DVP).
