Puerto Rican Nationalist Party

The Puerto Rican Nationalist Party was founded in the early 20th century to advocate for Puerto Rico's independence from U.S. rule. Promoting national identity and self-determination, the party sought to establish Puerto Rico as a sovereign nation. In the 1930s and 1940s, it gained prominence through activism and protests, including controversial events like the attempted assassination of U.S. politicians. The party's influence waned as the struggle for independence evolved, but it remains a significant symbol of Puerto Rican nationalism and the ongoing dialogue about the island's political status.
