The National Revolutionary Party

The National Revolutionary Party was a political organization in Mexico founded in 1938, later renamed the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). It aimed to create a stable, unified government by combining revolutionary principles with political organization. The party held power for most of the 20th century, maintaining control through a mix of electoral practices and political maneuvering. Its leadership sought to manage social change, economic development, and national unity, shaping Mexico’s political landscape for decades. The PRI's influence persisted until the late 20th century, making it one of the most enduring political parties in Latin America.
