# Liberal Swedish Party

The Liberal Swedish Party (Swedish: Svenska frisinnade partiet, Finnish: Ruotsalainen vapaamielinen puolue, lit. 'Swedish Free-Minded Party', RVP) was a political party in Finland, working amongst the Swedish-speaking minority. The party founded in 1919 under the name of Swedish Left (In Swedish: Svensk Vänster, SV and in Finnish Ruotsalainen vasemmisto, RV) until the 1947. Ideologically the party preferred a republican state rather than a monarchy, which differentiated them from the majority of the Swedish People's Party, which tended to hold more conservative views. The party was represented in the Parliament of Finland by Georg Schauman, Georg von Wendt and Max Sergelius. The party was dissolved in 1951.

In the 1945 parliamentary election the party got 8 192 votes (0.48%) and one seat.
