The right-wing faction of URV founded a new party called Valencian Union (UV).

This book had the objective of contributing to establish the bases and the theory of Valencian nationalism at the end of the 20th century.

ENV never had any big electoral success, with the anti-catalanist political space already being occupied by UV.

A couple of years later the party was reactivated, following the affiliation of Miquel Ramon i Quiles (senator expelled from UV) and Francesc Martínez León (member of the City Council of Valencia).

In 1989 ENV participated in the European Parliament elections with a single candidate, integrated in the list of Valencian Union.
