Democratic Party (Spain)

The Democratic Party (Spanish: Partido Democrático) was a Spanish political party in the reign of Isabella II (reigned 1833–1868), being a clandestine force except during the Progressive Biennium (1854–1856). In 1849, a left-wing of the progressives established the Democratic Party as a rally of radical liberals and moderate socialists which did not accept the political system of Queen Isabella and called for the full application of the Constitution of 1812. Its main leaders were Francisco Pi y Margall and Cristino Martos.
