Nationalist Party, Australia With the official title of Australian National Federation, it was a conservative party formed in February 1917 by a merger between the
National Labor Party and the
Liberal Party. Emphasizing its commitment to World War I, it won a landslide victory in 1917, with
Hughes as Prime Minister. From 1922, it depended on the parliamentary support of the Country Party (see
National Party), whose leader,
Page, demanded
Hughes's resignation because of his former prominence within the Australian
Labor Party. Subsequently, the Nationalist-Country coalition under
Bruce and Page governed until 1929, when it was heavily defeated at the polls. In an effort to create a more effective organization, the party was absorbed into the
United Australia Party in 1931.
