The German-Hanoverian Party ((ドイツ語:Deutsch-Hannoversche Partei), DHP), also known as the Guelph Party ((ドイツ語:Welfenpartei)), was a conservative, federalist political party in the German Empire and the Weimar Republic. ==History== The party was founded in 1867 in protest of the annexation of the Kingdom of Hanover by the Kingdom of Prussia in the aftermath of the Austro-Prussian War.〔Vincent E McHale (1983) ''Political parties of Europe'', Greenwood Press, p420 ISBN 0-313-23804-9〕 They wanted the revival of the Kingdom of Hanover and the restoration of the sequestrated assets of the former ruling House of Welf.〔Taddey, Gerhard (1979) ''Lexikon der deutschen Geschichte. Personen. Ereignisse. Institutionen'', Alfred Kröner Verlag, p253〕 The party therefore was also called the ''Welfen'', and drew its strongest support from the rural areas around Hannover.〔 In the Reichstag DHP deputies usually acted as allies of the anti-Prussian Centre Party parliamentary group under Ludwig Windthorst, who although a Catholic and leader of the Centre Party was a former Hanoverian Justice Minister who was loyal to the House of Welf.〔(Pages 260-261 ), A history of modern Germany, 1840-1945 By Hajo Holborn〕 From 1890 the party was led by Georg von der Decken. During the German Revolution of 1918–1919, the DHP advocated the implementation of a Free State of Hanover within the Weimar Republic and succeeded in having a plebiscite held in the Prussian Province of Hanover on 19 May 1924. However, the referendum fell short of the one-third threshold required to enact devolution. The defeat hastened the party's decline and in the following years many members joined the rising Nazi Party, others the Catholic Centre. In 1933 the DHP, like other conservative and liberal parties, dissolved to prevent a ban by the Nazi regime. After World War II, a party called ''Niedersächsische Landespartei'' ("Lower Saxon State Party") was formed as a continuation of the DHP. From 1947 that party was known as the German Party (DP). By the time of 1953, a group of DP dissidents formed a new DHP, which again joined the remnants of the German Party in 1962. In 2015 the Guelph Party, named in Italian as Parte Guelfa, has been reconstituted in Italy as christian order and archconfraternity to serve the Catholic Church. The headquarter of reborn Guelph Party has been set by the natural home of historical Palagio di Parte Guelfa in Florence. The Guelphs of Florence were especially important as established by direct approval of Pope Clement IV in 1266 and therefore could take power in many of the other northern Italian cities. In Florence the Guelphs traditionally included merchants and burghers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「German-Hanoverian Party」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
