History and characteristics

EN advocated for the independence of Galiza and the gradual reintegration of Galician and Portuguese. EN supported "Yes" in the referendum on the Treaty of the European Constitution, despite the fact that the BNG supported "No". The top party organs are the National Executive and the National Bureau.

In sixth National Assembly, held in Santiago de Compostela on 30 March 2008, Xosé Chorén and Alberte Xullo Rodríguez Feixoo were elected as the National Secretary and the Party president respectively. However, some of the party did not recognize the VI National Assembly, including Nationalist Left - Youth. Due to this, Nationalist Left - Youth split from the party along with some senior militants, going on to found a new party, the Galician Socialist Space.

En Galiza was its official magazine and EN promoted the Enclave Foundation.
