It was formed in 2015 as a loose movement that registered itself as an association in 2016 and later as a political party in 2020. Initially, it was connected with far-right parties such as the National Movement, although since 2016 it has moderated its political outlook. During the 2018 local elections, it coordinated with the socially conservative Right Wing of the Republic and in 2019 it joined the Polish Coalition. Due to its eurosceptic stances, its membership was terminated from the coalition, and in May 2021 it announced its support for the ruling United Right coalition.
