The National Social Movement was a minor Bulgarian political party formed in 1932 by Aleksandar Tsankov. Although a member of the governing People's Bloc of Nikola Mushanov, Tsankov had come to be a strong admirer of Adolf Hitler and as a result he set up the NSM to offer a version of Nazism. The party itself failed to find much favour (despite gathering a reasonable following), although its formation helped to speed up the collapse of the coalition government. It maintained links with Nazi Germany, as evidenced by the appointment of Tsankov to the leadership of a government in exile in 1944, although it did not gain power.
