The National Conservative Party, also known domestically as the Conservatives or the NCP, is the oldest and second largest (by membership) major modern political party in Libertas Omnium Maximus. Founded in 1869, the National Conservative party represents a broad range of political ideologies including classical liberalism, classical conservatism, neoliberalism, and various forms of right-wing populism. The party also favors liberal economic policies, including deregulation, tax cuts, and, at times, decreased barriers to trade and international commerce. Since the implosion of the Labor Party in the mid-1970s, the Conservatives have been one of the two dominant political factions in Maximusian federal-level politics, though increasing levels of infighting within the party's upper leadership since the 1990s has led many members to defect to more niche, policy-specific right/center-right parties. The Conservative Party currently leads the majority coalition in the Senate's upper house and holds the presidency.

Offshoots
A number of major political organizations spun off from the National Conservative Party, primarily in the late 20th century.
- Christian Union Party in 1961 following irreconcilable disagreements on the party's stance on the division of church and state (sometimes jokingly called "The Great Schism").
- Alliance for Freedom (now the Spirit of 1837) in 1962 following the departure of a number of paleoconservative party members from the NCP.
- Libertas Universalis in 1994 following the merger of the NCP's more reactionary wing with a smaller number of anti-communist parties.
