Everything For the Country Party

The Everything for the Country Party (Romanian: Partidul Totul Pentru Țară, PTT) 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.

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 worships the legionnaires Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, Horia Sima, or Radu Gyr, as it appears from the publication "Buciumul".
