Visual Context
Related people, parties, or institutions mentioned in the page.
The Center Party has been one of Sweden's most important coalition-makers, governing with Social Democrats (1951–1957) and leading right-of-centre governments (1976–1982) under Thorbjörn Fälldin. Long led by Maud Olofsson and then Annie Lööf, it moved steadily liberal and urban under their tenure. In 2022 it refused to support a government reliant on Sweden Democrats, entering opposition — a decision that defines its 2026 strategy.
