History
The party was established following the January 1996 coup in order to support the candidacy of coup leader Ibrahim Baré Maïnassara in the July 1996 presidential elections.[1] In the November 1996 parliamentary elections, which were boycotted by most opposition parties, it won 59 of the 83 seats.[2]
The following year the party was dissolved and replaced by the Rally for Democracy and Progress.
