DescriptionThe Alternative for Germany (AfD) is a right-wing populist political party in Germany. It is known for its Euroscepticism, as well as for opposing immigration to Germany. The party was founded in 2013 and has since grown to become the third-largest party in the Bundestag, the German parliament.

The AfD's ideology is complex and has evolved over time. In its early years, the party focused on its opposition to the eurozone and its support for economic liberalism. However, in recent years, the party has shifted its focus to issues such as immigration, Islam, and law and order. The AfD has been accused of racism, xenophobia, and Islamophobia.

The AfD is a controversial party and its views are not widely shared in Germany. However, the party has been able to capitalize on public discontent with immigration and the European Union to win support from some voters.
