History

The party was launched by Senator Andrea Augello and MP Vincenzo Piso in December 2015.[1] In February 2016 the party was joined in the Regional Council of Lazio by all the four regional councillors from the New Centre-Right and by one regional councillor from the mixed group.[2]

In June 2016 the party supported the candidacy for mayor of Nicola Calandrini in the municipal election of Latina (who lost in the ballot),[3] getting 6.6% of the vote and one seat.[4]

In the 2017 local elections the party scored good results in Frosinone (4.3% of the vote), Anagni (5.4%), where it get the election for mayor of its member Daniele Natalia, and Ladispoli (10.7%), where its member Alessandro Grando was elected mayor too.[5]

On the occasion of the 2018 Lazio regional election, following a series of negotiations,[6] Cuoritaliani announced the candidacy of someone of its member between the ranks of Forza Italia.[7]

In the 2018 local elections the results in cities like Anzio and Velletri were really disappointing, causing the anger of Augello who relieved local leaders of their positions.[8] In December 2018 Augello finally announced the merger of Cuoritaliani into Brothers of Italy.[9]
