History
It was formed for the 1919 Italian general election, arriving third after the Italian Socialist Party and the Italian People's Party, with 15.9% and 96 seats, doing particularly well in Piedmont and Southern Italy, especially in Sicily, the home-region of party's leader and former Prime Minister Vittorio Emanuele Orlando. [1]
Ideology
The Liberals, Democrats, and Radicals were the expression of the liberalism and radicalism in Italy and the upper-middle class, such as cities' bourgeoisie, business owners, and artisans. In the alliance, there were also a main group of the Italian Radical Party. The alliance supported a right to vote and the public school for all children.
