The National Progressive Party , Narodno napredna stranka in Slovene, was a political party in the Carniola region of Austria-Hungary. It was established in 1894 by Ivan Tavčar as the National Party of Carniola Narodna Stranka za Krajnsko and renamed in 1905 to The National Progressive Party. It continued to operate under this name until after the First World War, when it merged with the National Party of Styria Narodna Stranka za Štajersko, only to be incorporated into the the pan-Yugoslav State Party of Serbian, Croatian and Slovene Democrats Državnotvorna stranka demokrata Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca less than a year later.
