The Trentino People's Party (Italian: Partito Popolare Trentino), previously the People's Political Union of Trentino (Unione Politica Popolare del Trentino), was a political party in Austria-Hungary, founded in 1904 in support of Italian minorites in Trentino.[1] [2] Its leader was Alcide De Gasperi.[3]
In the 1911 Cisleithanian legislative election the PPT was the second largest Italian party in the Vienna Parliament, after having been the largest in the 1907 election.
In 1920, after the annexation of Trentino into Italy, the PPT was merged into the Italian People's Party.
