Progress Party of Denmark (1814: Norwegian Independence)

The Progress Party of Denmark (Danish: Danmarks Fremskridsparti) is a Danish nationalist political party, started in 1978 by long time leader, Pia Kjærsgaard. While she was not involved in politics before forming the Progress Party, she used to vote for the National Liberals, like many other old Progress Party members.

In the start, many Danish political parties was not interested in collaborating with them, but over the 1980s and 1990s, the right-wing in Danish politics opened themselves up for the party. Today, the Progress Party is an accepted party in Danish politics.

The Progress Party's ideology is a little similar to the National Liberal, but they are more nationalistic and conservative, while also embracing classical liberalism. The party also wants to limit immigration into Denmark. While the party have had it's golden age in the early 2000s, they have become a small party again, only seeing some new support in recent migrant crisises.

In the Landtag of Schleswig and the Landtag of Holstein, the DFrP does support the Danish-German Unionist Party, just like the National Liberals does.
