The term national liberalism was mainly used in German-speaking countries like Germany and Austria during the 19th century,[1][page needed][2][page needed][3][page needed] where "National-Liberal" parties were long in government. It also became influential in nearby countries, like Romania.

In 19th-century Germany believers in national liberalism differed from liberal nationalists in that they believed in a more authoritarian presence in Europe and a strong Germanic Empire. Liberal nationalists, such as Max Weber, were looking towards a democratic Germany in cooperation with the other European powers.[citation needed]

In Austria, national liberalism has remained the basis of one of the three Lager, or ideological camps, in the country. Historically, this has been represented by the Freedom Party,[4] but they have recently been joined by a splinter, the Alliance for the Future of Austria. Germany's Free Democratic Party continues to feature a national-liberal faction,[5] which holds a consistently Eurosceptic position, differently from the rest of the party.[6] In Romania the National Liberal Party (PNL), founded in 1875, revived in 1990 and enlarged in 2014, has also been part of the national-liberal tradition.
