The party was founded in 1995, it officially supported the candidacy of former president Hugo Chávez and the start of Bolivarian Revolution for the 1998 parliamentary election, being the first party to support his aspirations (after the Fifth Republic Movement), on that election they gained 1.2% of the votes for the Hugo Chávez, managing to become the seventh largest party in Venezuela. In 2000 general election they supported Chávez again and gained 0.9% of the votes for him, they have also won the mayor's office seat of the Bolívar municipality of the Sucre state.
For the 2006 presidential election, IPCN supported the re-election of Hugo Chávez. On 2007, Hugo Chávez called for the formation of a party that would unite all of the left-wing political parties and movements that supported Bolivarian Revolution, thus the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) emerged. Initially, IPCN have disagreed to merge with PSUV due to their ideological differences but on January 24, 2007, the party was merged with PSUV and dissolved.
