History

The party was established in 1994 after Political Parties' Act was introduced as a reference to the Young Lithuania [lt] youth organization, which was established by the Lithuanian Nationalist Union as its youth wing in 1927. The newly formed organisation had its best performance in Kaunas. Here, it managed to elect its leader, Stanislovas Buškevičius, as member of Seimas between 1996 and 2004.

Following the municipal elections in 2011, the party received 6.49% of the votes in Kaunas city municipality council and won 4 seats there.[1] It had no seats in the other municipalities. In the municipal elections in 2015 the party failed to win any seats.

In the 2016 parliamentary election, the party participated in a coalition with Lithuanian Nationalists and received 0.54% of the vote.[2]
