The party was formed in May 2016 by Failos Kranidiotis, a lawyer and former advisor to former Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, after Kranidiotis was ousted from the New Democracy party.[2][4]
History

In June 2016, Kranidiotis announced the party's National Council (presidium).[5][6]
In May 2022, the party announced a new coalition formed with Recreate Greece, and named National Creation.
