The party originated as moderate supporters of the program of [[Gréagóir FitzRex]] during the latter portion of the [[Red Interregnum]]. In general, the party historically supported increased {{wp|representative democracy|democratic}} reforms to the [[Constitution of Urcea]], a position that it gradually moderated following the [[Great War]]. As opposed to the [[National Pact (Urcea)|National Pact]], the National Social Union espouses a more {{wp|distributist}} economy and also believes in a more active foreign policy outside the [[Levantine Union]].

After the Great War, the party largely became supporters of the {{wp|status quo}} and became a {{wp|big tent}} party in opposition to the economic liberalism of the [[National Pact (Urcea)|National Pact]]. Fissures began to form in the party following the merger with the Liberal Party between the "big tent centrist" faction, the left-wing "Marxist reading" party, and the [[Wittonian Socialism|Wittonian Socialist faction]]. The party dissolved as part of the [[2015 Urcean political realignment]] and is considered to have been succeeded by the [[Union for National Solidarity (Urcea)|Union for National Solidarity]]. | ||
