Rally for the Monegasque Family (French: Rassemblement pour la Famille Monégasque), also known as Promotion of the Monegasque Family (French: Promotion de la Famille Monégasque) was a Royalist political party in the Principality of Monaco.[3] [4] Founded in 1998, as Rally for the Monegasque Family (RFM),[5] and led by Jacques Rit,[6] RFM joined the centrist coalition Union for Monaco (UM) in 2003. However, RFM and UM severed ties preceding the 2008 parliamentary elections, and RFM formed a center-right coalition Monaco Together (ME).[7] Rit later joined Horizon Monaco in the 2013 Monegasque general election.
