The National Party of South-West Africa was a political party in South-West Africa, a former name of Namibia.
History
In the 1940 South-West African legislative election, the party won two seats. It lost the seats in the 1945 South-West African legislative election, but saw two of its members appointed to the South-West African Legislative Assembly by the territory's administrator.
In the 1950 South-West African legislative election, the party was victorious, repeating its performance in elections in the 1953, 1955, 1961, 1965, 1970 and 1974 South-West African legislative elections. However, it did not take part in the first multi-ethnic elections in the 1978 South-West African legislative election.
