Perspective
FRP was founded on November 24, 2015 (as stated in the news report published on January 21, 2016, in the Official Journal of the Republic of Chile).[2] The creation of the party had the support of prominent political figures in the region, such as former deputy Jaime Mulet and former mayor of the Tierra Amarilla city Yhanss Delgado.[3]
In its declaration of principles, the FRP claims to be a regionalist and progressive party, whose main focus is the human beings and their rights.[2]
The party announced that it would present candidates for councilors in the Atacama Region for the municipal elections of 2016,[4] where it participated in a political coalition with the Progressive and Patagonian Regional Democracy parties which was announced on April 10, 2016.[5]
On February 3, 2017, the party requested legal registration in the Antofagasta Region, which was accepted on April 3 of the same year.[6][7] In the same month of February, the party agreed to merge with Green North Regional Force, Independent Regionalist Agrarian and Social Movement and Somos Aysén to form the Social Green Regionalist Federation (FREVS). It was officially dissolved on April 26, 2017, when FREVS was legally constituted.[8]
