LFV was formed in early 2010 by senior members of Liga Veneta Repubblica (LVR), notably including Giorgio Vido and Bortolino Sartore, in the run up of the 2010 Venetian regional election.
They disagreed with Fabrizio Comencini's decision to support Antonio De Poli of the Union of Christian and Centre Democrats (UDC) as president and wanted to support Giuseppe Bortolussi of the Democratic Party (PD) instead.
[1] A leading member of the UDC, Antonio Guadagnini, chose to enter the new party, that received also the support of Franco Rocchetta, founder of Liga Veneta in 1978–1980.
[9] Five years later, the LVA participated in the 2015 regional election as part of a larger list, named Autonomous Veneto Project, in support of Alessandra Moretti of the PD.
Other than the LVA, the list notably included Santino Bozza,[10][11][12] a dissident from Liga Veneta–Lega Nord and more recently affiliated with Veneto First, and a group of splinters from Plebiscito.eu led by Gianluca Panto.
