The National Bloc (French: Bloc national) was a right-wing political coalition in France which was in power from 1919 to 1924.

Made up primarily of conservative right wing parties, such as the Fédération républicaine, Alliance démocratique, and Action libérale, the coalition had the support of various radical right wing parties as well. The Bloc wanted to continue the patriotic union sacrée which was Raymond Poincaré's coalition during World War I.

The National Bloc election campaign focused on two principal issues: Patriotism and fear of Bolshevism.
