History

The Alliance was formed in early 2004 in order to contest the March 2004 parliamentary elections. It received 1.36% of the vote and won a single seat, taken by Fernando Gomes of the ASG.[1]

The Alliance was dissolved by the end of 2004, and Gomes joined the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde.[1]
