Maurist Party
The Maurist Party (, PM), initially known as the Maurist Conservatives (, CM) or simply the Maurists (), was originally a political faction within the Conservative Party (Spain), Liberal Conservative Party, led by Antonio Maura, which split from the party in 1913 after Eduardo Dato's election as Conservative leader. A loose association of Maura's supporters at first, in 1918 it officially became a political party of its own. The party lost relevance after Miguel Primo de Rivera's coup in 1923 and Maura's death in 1925. In early 1931, the Constitutional Centre party was founded by three leading maurists (César Silió, Antonio Goicoechea and the son of Antonio Maura, Gabriel Maura, Gabriel) after negotiations in late 1930 in order to establish a federation of right-wing forces between Catalan regionalists and maurists.

Spanish Restoration
The Restoration () or Bourbon Restoration () was the period in Spanish history between the First Spanish Republic and the Second Spanish Republic from 1874 to 1931. It began on 29 December 1874, after a coup d'état by General Arsenio Martínez Campos ended the First Spanish Republic and restored the Monarchy of Spain, monarchy under Alfonso XII, and ended on 14 April 1931 with the proclamation of the Second Spanish Republic.

Critics of the system included Republicanism, republicans, Socialism, socialists, Anarchism, anarchists, Basque nationalism, Basque and Catalan nationalism, Catalan nationalists, and Carlism, Carlists.

Political Parties Disestablished In 1930
Politics () is the set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms of power relations among individuals, such as the distribution of status or resources. The branch of social science that studies politics and government is referred to as political science. Politics may be used positively in the context of a "political solution" which is compromising and non-violent, or descriptively as "the art or science of government", but the word often also carries a negative connotation.. The concept has been defined in various ways, and different approaches have fundamentally differing views on whether it should be used extensively or in a limited way, empirically or normatively, and on whether conflict or co-operation is more essential to it. A variety of methods are deployed in politics, which include promoting one's own political views among people, negotiation with other political subjects, making laws, and exercising internal and external f ...
