New Centre Party (1990: Two Germanies)

The New Centre Party (German: Neue Zentrumspartei, NZ) is an East German Conservative and Regionalist political party founded in 2017. It was formed by René Stadtkewitz after he and many right-wingers departed from the CDU in opposition of the centrist policies of Angela Merkel and the Grand Coalition.

In the 2018 election, the party proved itself when it won 20 out of 395 seats in the Volkskammer, becoming the fifth biggest political party in East Germany.

The party is officially conservative and regionalist, and while it is coming out of the CDU, the party are not as socially conservative as one would believe. It is stong on national conservatism and populism, often being presented as a less radical version of the NPP.

The party's leader, René Stadtkewitz are in favor of a conservative alliance between the CDU, the NZ and the NPP. This was also a position he held when he was a member of the CDU.
