Centre-right coalition (Italian: Coalizione di centrodestra) refers to a political alliance of political parties in Italy, which contested the 2008 and the 2013 general elections under the leadership of Silvio Berlusconi, three-times Prime Minister of Italy.
In the 1994 general election the centre-right ran with two coalitions, the Pole of Freedoms in northern Italy and the Pole of Good Government in southern Italy. In 1996, after the leaving of Northern League, the centre-right coalition, in occasion of the 1996 general election, assumed the new name of Pole for Freedoms. In 2000 with the return of the Lega Nord to the centre-right, the coalition reformed as the House of Freedoms which existed until 2008. Since 2008 (when The People of Freedom was formed), the coalition has not had official names.
Currently, after the schism between Berlusconi and Northern League's leader Salvini during the events of the 2016 Rome municipal election, the coalition is active only in some cities and regions.
