Dissolution of The Party
The two election failures, and the financial crisis crystallized the party's internal quarrels. A final attempt at conciliation took place at the annual party Congress April 11, 1931. It was a failure, and the party broke up under the differences. It split between the federalists on the one hand and nationalists on the other. At the same congress, it was decided to relinquish the newspaper Breiz Atao. The federalists (Morvan Marchal, Yann-Morvan Gefflot, Goulven Mazéas, René-Yves Creston, Le Men, Abeozen) went on to create the Breton Federalist League whose new journal was Federal Brittany.
Breiz Atao was briefly replaced by the journal War Zao, run by the nationalist faction in Trégor, Goëlo and Haute-Cornouaille, which called for a return to nationalism without excluding separatism. The nationalists went on to create the Breton National Party at the Congress of Guingamp in August 1931, reviving Breiz Atao as their party's paper.
