Freedom and Accord Party

The Freedom and Accord Party (Ottoman Turkish: حریت و ایتلاف فرقه‌سی, romanized: Hürriyet ve İtilâf Fırkası, French: Entente Libérale)^[1] was a liberal Ottoman political party active between 1911–1913 and 1918–1919, during the Second Constitutional Era.^[2] It was the most significant opposition to Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) in the Chamber of Deputies. The political programme of the party advocated for Ottomanism, government decentralisation, the rights of ethnic minorities, and close relations with Britain.^[3] In the post-1918 Ottoman Empire, the party became known for its attempts to suppress and prosecute the CUP.

In both of its periods of existence, the party struggled with internal divisions among its diverse factions, resulting in a disorganized opposition to the CUP.
