The People’s Party, also known as Unionist Party or the False-Unionist Party (Bulgarian: Народна партия, romanized: Narodna partiya, Bulgarian: Съединистка партия, romanized: Saedinistka partiya, Bulgarian: Лъжесъединистка партия, romanized: Lazhesaedinistka partiya), was a political party active in the autonomous region of Eastern Rumelia between 1881 and 1885 and in the Principality of Bulgaria after 1885. Alongside the Liberal Party, it was one of the two major political parties in the province.
Its leaders included the politicians Hristo Stambolski, Mihail Madzharov, prominent members of the Geshovi business family (Ivan Evstratiev Geshov, Ivan Stefanov Geshov and Ivan Dimitriev Geshov), the revolutionaries Mihail Grekov and Georgi Markovich and the writers Ivan Vazov and Konstantin Velichkov. It was associated with the newspapers Maritsa, Narodniy Glas and Suedinenie.
The party supported incorporating Eastern Rumelia into Bulgaria, but following a failed attempt to do so in early 1884 the party was known as False-Unionist. It was the ruling party in the autonomous region between 1884 and 1885 and was supported by the country’s second head of state, Gavril Krastevich. Following the Bulgarian unification the party remained active, but was eventually dissolved during Stefan Stambolov‘s time in office. After the fall of Stambolov in 1894, the party was restored and it eventually merged with Stoilov‘s conservatives into the People’s Party.[1][2]
