It was originally founded in 1919 under the name of Alliance of Agrarians. The party operated on the whole territory of the state, but in areas with a Croatian majority, the party would later merge into the Croatian Peasant Party. A splinter party later emerged called the National Peasant Party of Dragoljub Jovanović. The party was officially dissolved in 1945 after the proclamation of the communist system in Yugoslavia.
