Unió Democràtica de Catalunya

Unió Democràtica de Catalunya (UDC) was a Christian democratic political party in Catalonia, Spain, founded in 1931. It promoted Catalan regional interests, cultural identity, and social conservatism within a democratic framework. It aimed to balance Catalan autonomy with Spanish unity, advocating for social harmony and traditional values. The party played a significant role in Catalan politics, often aligning with larger national parties. Over time, UDC underwent changes and eventually dissolved in 2017, reflecting shifting political dynamics in the region and debates over independence and regional autonomy.
