My Work Process in FDP Party

Hello, working in FDP party was a good experience for me because I never read or heard about German parties particularly Free Democratic Party, or FDP. I meet with my group couple times on Monday and Wednesday at the library and we have been working for three hours in the couple times. I learned a lot from this topic and having a good information about German party especially FDP party. I did the history part of the FDP part and I searched about on Wikipedia. I came up with good details about the history of FDP party which is The Free Democratic Party, or FDP, was created to support liberal rights in Germany. It currently is made up of 93 members and is one of the largest groups in Bundestag. The FDP holds together the balance of power in Bundestag by promoting human rights and other things such as free markets and privatization. Without the FDP, the people of Germany wouldn’t have somebody to fight for their rights politically, economically, or socially.

 My group members came up with different information about FDP party which are Theodor Heuss first chairman 1948, Heuss was first president of federal republic of Germany  from 1949-1959. Free Democratic Party is a centrist German party that advocates individualism, capitalism and social reform; it was established in December 1948 at a conference attended by delegates from liberties in American, British and French zone occupation. Formed from nine regionally organized parties BDV, DemP, DP, DVP, (Northern Wurttemberg-Baden), DVP (Southern Wurttemberg-Hohenzollern), FDP from the British zone of occupation and the free state of Bavaria and the LDP from the state of Hessen and Berlin west. Formed with the intent to influence free market economics and human rights.“Kingmaker”.
