 The party was established by Doctor Hristo Kunchev or Kuntscheff in 1932, who had studied medicine in Berlin.The party sought to copy the Nazi Party by adopting the National Socialist Program, the swastika and other symbols of the German party.Unlike some of its competitors on the far right like the Union of Bulgarian National Legions and the Ratniks, it was not a very influential group and had a relatively small membership with only a hundred people active in its core.
