History

Its national headquarters was located in the Schaffer street, Buena Vista sector of Petare, Caracas, where it participated in multiple social and humanitarian work among the population, especially the elderly diabetics. The party had a presence in more than 15 states, and its strongest bastions were Miranda, Falcon, Carabobo and Lara.

It participated in several national and regional electoral elections. In 1992, the party obtained enough votes to access the newly created Municipality of Chacao in Caracas but their rights were denied by the then current government. NOR militant bases were varied, from nostalgic followers or former president Marcos Pérez Jiménez, supporters of the New Right, and national socialist. In 1995 when the French politician and National Front leader, Jean-Marie Le Pen, went on to become the third political force in the country, New Order strengthened ties with the French National Front. In the 1993 Venezuelan presidential election the party postulated and supported their leader, Félix Díaz Ortega, as a presidential candidate.[2]

In 2001 NOR pickets paraded alongside other opposition political forces in a massive march in Caracas, carrying signs that read Out with Communism in the barracks. The party ceased their operations and dissolved their existence in 2002.

gollark: I don't. I just made a convenient thing to graph the probability of rolling each number a while ago.
gollark: How much of it, anyway?
gollark: Not sure that needs a ping...
gollark: I mean, they are newish features, but I'm not sure they're interesting enough to be worth an entirely new purchase vs KSP 1, with its mods.
gollark: This KSP 2 looks quite like existing KSP with better graphics (well, that's the trailer, not necessarily ingame footage) and more parts for colonies and stuff.
