The Conservative Party (Spanish: Partido Conservador) was one of two major political parties in Bolivia in the late 19th century. The other was the Liberal Party. Between 1884 and 1899, all of the Presidents of Bolivia were members of the Conservative Party. The Conservative rule of Bolivia started with the presidency of Narciso Campero. One of the Conservative party's main goals was to develop an international rail network. The Conservative party lost control to the liberal party in the Federalist War of 1899.
