The NRP was founded by Endre Bajcsy-Zsilinszky in 1930 following the disbandment of the Hungarian National Independence Party (MNFP), most of whose members, including leader Gyula Gömbös, rejoined the Unity Party.
In the 1935 elections the party more than doubled its vote share, but failed to win a seat.
In one multi-member constituency it ran a joint list with the National Independence Kossuth Party (OFKP).
[1][2] The NRP was dissolved in 1938 when Bajcsy-Zsilinszky joined the Independent Smallholders, Agrarian Workers and Civic Party (FKGP).
