Its followers were called perrepistas. PRP was the predominant political party in the state of São Paulo throughout the First Brazilian Republic. At the federal level, it allied, in most cases, with the Republican Party of Minas Gerais (PRM) in elections and power alternation through the coffee with milk politics.[2][3]
During its active period, the party elected four presidents of the republic: Campos Salles (1898), Rodrigues Alves (1902 and 1918), Washington Luís (1922), and Júlio Prestes (1930).
PRP was dissolved on December 2, 1937, during the Estado Novo.
