The Fatherland Party was formed in 1950 from defectors chiefly from the Gothic People's Party and Workers' Party on a basis of ideas that included the nationalization of large companies and other assets vital for national interests, a self-sufficient planned economy, a parliament controlled by trade unions and the appointment of technocrats as ministers. With the entry of Yonderre into the Levantine Union, the Fatherland Party adopted an LU-skeptic stance that helped boost its popularity. More or less direct guild socialism has also at times been a major focus of the Fatherland Party. The Fatherland Party was first represented in the Yonderian Parliament in 1955 with three seats, and at its peak had 19 seats in 1981.
The Fatherland Party has been described variously at times as national socialist, national communist, radical conservative and anti-progressive. The party opposes feminism, LGBT rights and societal permissiveness, favouring instead traditional gender roles and the nuclear family.
