It was founded in 1989 by the cardiologist, professor and politician Enéas Carneiro, who was the president of the party.

The party was strongly identified with the figure of Enéas, who was candidate to the presidency of Brazil in 1989, 1994 and 1998.
The party was extinguished in 2006, shortly before the death of Enéas, being succeeded by the Party of the Republic.
