History

Kennedy became the first chairperson of the Taiwan Nationalist Party on July 30, 2005 in Taoyuan. Lacking in preparations, it was not legalised until May 27, 2015.[1] Before registration, there was a suggestion to change the name to distinguish from the Kuomintang (Chinese Nationalist Party) from the Ministry of the Interior.

Being a centrist party, the Taiwan Nationalist Party supported Taiwanese nationalism.[2]

On April 29, 2020, the Taiwan Nationalist Party was dissolved by the Ministry of the Interior for not obeying the Political Parties Act.[3]
