Popular Area (Italian: Area Popolare, AP) was a centre-right and mainly Christian-democratic coalition, which included two parliamentary groups active in each house of the Italian Parliament: the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
"Popular" was a reference to popolarismo, the Italian variety of Christian democracy.
