Civic Force (Шаблон:Lang-ro, FC) was a political party in Romania. It was founded in 2004 by former Mayor of Bucharest Viorel Lis (formerly affiliated with the Christian Democratic National Peasants' Party or PNȚCD throughout his term). Its last president was former Prime Minister Mihai Răzvan Ungureanu, elected at the September 2012 party congress[1] until 2014 when the party was absorbed by the Democratic Liberal Party (PDL).
History
Civic Force (FC) was founded in 2004 by former Bucharest mayor, Viorel Lis (who was previously a member of the Christian Democratic National Peasants' Party or PNȚCD for short), under the name 'Christian Party' (Шаблон:Lang-ro). In 2007, Adrian Iurașcu became the president of the party, after which the party adopted its current name. In 2009, FC ran for the European Parliament elections of that year, but failed to win any seats.
In 2012, former Prime Minister Mihai Răzvan Ungureanu was elected president. For the 2012 parliamentary elections, FC joined the Right Romania Alliance (ARD), an electoral alliance with other centre-right opposition parties, namely the Democratic Liberal Party (PDL) and the Christian Democratic National Peasants' Party (PNȚCD). Furthermore, the party also applied to become a member of the European People's Party (EPP). Through ARD's list during the legislative 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 the Democratic Liberal Party (PDL).
