History edit
It was founded by Francesco Costantini, as the output of the Italian political forces in Istria, especially the liberal party.[5] Costantini was also its first president.[6] Its political agenda was centered on the defense and diffusion of Italianità in Istria.[5][7]
In 1905 it reached an agreement with the Political Society for Croats and Slovenes in Istria on the division of constituencies.[4] The two parties hardly managed to cooperate. The party was broken down by the Austrian government in 1915.[4]
