Their goal is seeking independence of the Ryukyu Islands(commonly referred to as Okinawa after the largest island), with some supporting the restoration of the Ryukyu Kingdom while others want to establish a Republic of the Ryukyus (Japanese: 琉球共和国, Kyūjitai: 琉球共和國, Hepburn: Ryūkyū Kyōwakoku).

The party was founded in June 1970, when Okinawa (called Ryūkyū at the time) was administered by the United States.

After the 730(a symbolic moment on July 30, 1978, when Okinawa changed back to driving on left, emulating other parts of Japan), the party virtually stopped its activity.

On the other hand, the party was under adverse conditions, as it completely lacked name recognition or an electoral turf, and Yara resided in Tokyo, not in Okinawa.

Since Yara gained 1576 votes in Naha alone, the party hoped that it could win a seat in the next Naha City Council member election held in 2009, especially since a winner of the last City Council election gained 1841 votes.

[1] In 2007, the PAFF, a trade union of freeters (part time workers) and foreign workers, alleged the party for breaking the Labor Standard Act and the Trade Unions Act, claiming it fired an officer without a proper reason.

The red and yellow stars have white borders, as the party put much faith in morality.
