The Everything for the Country Party (ro|Partidul Totul Pentru Țară, TPT) was a political party founded in Romania in 1993 by former members of the fascist Iron Guard. It existed until it was banned in 2015. The party claimed to adhere to a "national-Christian" doctrine and styled itself as the successor to the interwar party of the same name. Except for the "Party" part, that is newly included.[4]
The PTT appeared as a response to the continuity and consolidation of the system structures before 1989 and the development of corrupt and immoral politicians. The founders believed that the latter have threatened the existence of the Romanian nation and the Romanian unitary national state, threatening Romania with isolation from the civilized world. The old fighters considered that the National Resistance should continue, but under the conditions and frameworks provided by the rule of law. The PTT worshipped prominent figures in the Iron Guard, such as Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, Horia Sima, or Radu Gyr,
The Everything For the Country Party was ideologically, one of many far right parties regarded as successors to the Romanian Iron Guard.
prominent members included well-known Romanian personalities such as:[5] Ion Gavrilă Ogoranu, the leader of the Anticommunist Armed Resistance in the Făgăraș Mountains (vice president and then, the lifelong president of PPP), the actor Ernest Maftei who was a political prisoner, Mircea Nicolau, president of the "Prof. George Manu " foundation- involved at the peak of Anti-Communist Resistance and political prisoner for 20 years, Nicolae Purcarea, popular artist (wood sculptor), prof.
