United Yonderre, known as Yonderre Unie in Burgoignesc and Einiges Yonderre in Gothic, is a conservative-liberal centre-right political party in Yonderre. Founded in 1905 by the merger of the Christian Democratic Party and National Liberal Party, United Yonderre is the dominant party of the political right in Yonderre and the largest party in the country by votership, second-largest by membership behind the Social Democrats. The party has produced numerous Stewards of the Realm including the incumbent Hercule d'Arcaneaux.
The party achieved rapid growth during the 1900s and 1910s in the face of the Great Depression, largely thanks to the growing urbanization and the failed economic policies of the Social Democrats. United Yonderre became the third largest party in the Yonderian Parliament in 1918 behind the Social Democrats and Conservative People's Party. The party first held the office of Steward of the Realm in 1936 when Alexandre d'Ecaux replaced the Social Democrat Adolphe Heineau. United Yonderre remained a top party in Yonderian politics throughout the Occidental Cold War, maintaining a rivalry with the Social Democrats over the Stewardship of Yonderre which persists to this day.
United Yonderre is categorised as centre-right on the political spectrum, although it has been also described as centrist and right-wing. Ideologically, it has been described as conservative-liberal, liberal-conservative, liberal, conservative, classical-liberal, and agrarian. United Yonderre states its economic goals as "improving the competitiveness of the economy through access to innovative development, support of science, infrastructure development, increasing investment primarily in high technology, the industry - the engines of economic growth". The party is pro-welfare state funded by taxation "in support of civil society, to promote social mobility and activity". United Yonderre finds much common ground politically with the Conservative People's Party and Justice League, both of which it has often formed coalition governments with.
