[edit] Political culture of Nauru

Nauru's Parliamentary affairs are often characterized by informal alliances and personal links, rather than strong party discipline among its legislators.

[edit] Foundation

The party was formed by the former President of Nauru, Kinza Clodumar, and supported René Harris, Clodumar's ally, in the Parliament, mainly in votes of no confidence for or against Harris.

[edit] Political role

The CP just has a little role in the Nauruan Parliament and in the political life in Nauru. The party has had at least one seat in the Parliament from 1997 to 2003 (Clodumar), but definitely lost it after the general elections on October 23, 2004.
