General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 11 March 1918, with a second round on 18 March.^[1] They were the first elections held in the country contested by political parties, as the Christian-Social People's Party and Progressive Citizens' Party had been founded that year.^[2] The Progressive Citizens' Party emerged as the largest in the Landtag, winning seven of the 12 elected seats.^[3]

Electoral system

The electoral system was changed prior to the 1918 elections to allow for direct elections using a majoritarian system, and led to the creation of the new parties.

Only men aged 24 or over were allowed to vote.[1]
