TheChristian National Socialist Front (Hungarian:Keresztény Nemzeti Szocialista Front, KNSZF) was afar-right political party inHungary during the late 1930s.
The party was formed in 1937 as a breakaway from the newUnited Christian Party (EKP),[1] which had been established as a merger of theChristian Economic and Social Party, theChristian Opposition and theNational Legitimist Party earlier in the year. Due to disagreements some of the members left to other parties while under the exclusive leadership ofKároly Maróthy-Meizler [Wikidata] the remainder of the leaving members merged into theNational Front. Though the parties formed one organization, in the1939 elections they participated separately, though they did not run members against each other and they had also common candidates. The Christian National Socialist Front won three MPs, the National Front three MPs, includingKároly Maróthy-Meizler [Wikidata].
The elections saw the party finish ahead of the EKP in terms of vote share, but it won only three seats compared to the four won by the EKP. Shortly after the National Front merged fully into the party, before itself would merge into theArrow Cross Party in 1940.
