Preussische Vaterlandspartei

The Preussische Vaterlandspartei (English: Prussian Fatherland Party), commonly abbreviated as PVP, was a German reactionary party from 1855 to 1880. The party was created by Hans von Klopp and several other politicians who left the Freikonservative Partei in 1855 to form their own party. Throughout its existance it was moderately successful, even being able to enter into government once. By 1880, the party was mostly scattered and disbanded as a result of the Berlin Riots of '75. The remnants of the party either rejoined the DkP or went on to found the Deutsche väterliche Adlige Partei.
