It was formed in 1923 by the anti-prohibition minority of the [[Free-minded National Association]] as a consequence of the split over the issue on [[alcohol (drug)|alcohol]] prohibition.
In 1934 the two parties reunited in the form of the [[Liberals (Sweden)|People's Party]].<ref name=NS>[[Dieter Nohlen|Nohlen, D]] & Stöver, P (2010) ''Elections in Europe: A data handbook'', p1861 {{ISBN|978-3-8329-5609-7}}</ref>
