Its last president was formerPrime MinisterMihai Răzvan Ungureanu, elected at the September 2012 party congress[2] until 2014 when the party was absorbed by theDemocratic Liberal Party (PDL).

History

[edit]

Civic Force (FC) was founded in 2004 by formerBucharest mayor, Viorel Lis (who was previously a member of theChristian Democratic National Peasants' Party or PNȚCD for short), under the name 'Christian Party' (Romanian:Partidul Creștin). In 2007, Adrian Iurașcu became the president of the party, after which the party adopted its current name. In 2009, FC ran for theEuropean Parliamentelections of that year, but failed to win any seats.

In 2012, former Prime MinisterMihai Răzvan Ungureanu was elected president. For the2012 parliamentary elections, FC joined theRight Romania Alliance (ARD), an electoral alliance with othercentre-right opposition parties, namely theDemocratic Liberal Party (PDL) and theChristian Democratic National Peasants' Party (PNȚCD). Furthermore, the party also applied to become a member of theEuropean People's Party (EPP). Through ARD's list during thelegislative election held in that year, FC gained three deputy seats (more specifically Dan Cristian Popescu, Dănuț Culețu, and Cristian Roman) and a senator seat (namely party president Mihai Răzvan Ungureanu). Eventually, in July 2014, the Civic Force was absorbed by theDemocratic Liberal Party (PDL).
