History
The PNR was established in February 2000, has its origins among the supporters of the various small parties, movements and coalitions of the nationalist right (Party of Christian Democracy, Independent Movement for National Reconstruction/Party of the Portuguese Right, National Front), which emerged following the PREC, all extinct after some time electoral activity without appreciable results.
After the failure of the experiences of the PDC, MIRN/PDP and FN, and overcome the difficulties encountered by militants of the nationalist right in order to bring the five thousand signatures needed to form a party, acquisition of a centre/liberal center-left party in the bankruptcy (the PRD) presented as an opportunity.
The PRD had fallen into decay, had accumulated debts and had no activity but was not extinguished. It was then that elements of the National Alliance and the defunct National Action Movement (MAN) have joined the PRD, have paid their debts, and, once in control of the party changed its name to National Renewal Party (PNR) with a new program.
