History
The Federal Party was formed on 7 August 1953 by the leaders of the ruling parties in the three territories in order to contest the federal elections in December.[1] The elections saw the new party win 24 of the 35 seats. In the general elections in Northern Rhodesia the following year, it won ten of the twelve elected seats.[2]
In November 1957 the Federal Party merged with the United Rhodesia Party to form the United Federal Party.
