The party was formed in 2017 by Walter Kaswalder,[2][3] after his ejection from the Trentino Tyrolean Autonomist Party.[4][5][6][7][8]

In the 2018 provincial election, the AP were part of the autonomist centre-right coalition, led by Maurizio Fugatti of Lega Trentino, who was elected President of Trentino. The AP won 3.0% of the vote and Kaswalder was elected president of the Provincial Council.[9][10]

In the 2023 provincial election, the party ran in a joint list with the PATT and Trentino Project, in support of Fugatti's re-election.[11][12][13] In the election, Fugatti was re-elected and the autonomist joint list obtained 8.2% of the vote and three councillors, including Kaswalder.
