Pais Party was presented in Santiago on September 3, 2016; on the 10th of the same month it was founded in the city of Concepción.[2]

One of its founders was Chilean senator Alejandro Navarro.[3]

Among the party's proposals was the elimination of the Chilean pensions system sistema de AFP as well as to achieve free education at all levels.[4]

On the 22nd of May 2017 the party delivered 8,500 signatures of new members from 6 different regions to the Central Electoral Board Servicio Electoral in order to legalise the party on those areas; at the same time, it was announced that Alejandro Navarro would run in the presidential race.[5]

Because of some issues with one of the regions, the party was finally legalised in 5 zones: Región de Tarapacá, Antofagasta, Maule, Biobío and Araucanía.[6]

After their first General Assembly on the 6th of August 2017, Alejandro Navarro´s presidential candidacy was confirmed and legalised and the candidates for Parliament and Local Governments were announced.[7] The new leadership of the party was also ratified.[8]

  • 2017: Alejandro Navarro (lost)
gollark: Is there an EPUB version? PDFs are annoying to read.
gollark: There will have been millennia to refine flowcharts and/or to just stick fairly general AI in there, so I don't see the problem. Just have a nonvolitional narrow AI to manage piloting.
gollark: Even it the people are very reliable and consistent, the autopilot can be made equally so without requiring someone to actually sit there running it.
gollark: There's been millennia of development in the autopilots, so I see little valid reason for there to be a person supervising the controls.
gollark: greetings.
