Netherlands Antilles
The party was founded in 1948 by Moises Frumencio da Costa Gomez, the first Prime Minister of the Netherlands Antilles.[3] Five other minister presidents of the country were affiliated with the PNP. At the legislative elections in the Netherlands Antilles in 2002, 2006 and 2010 respectively, the party won three,[4] two[5] and one of the 14 Curaçao-seats in the 22 seat Estates of the Netherlands Antilles.
In the island council of the island territory Curaçao in 2003 and 2007, the party won two seats.[6][7] In the last island council the party obtained one of the 21 seats. The island council continued as Estates of Curaçao upon the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles in October 2010.
