Former far-right European political alliance

Image credit is listed at the end of this article.

EuroNat was a far-right and ultranationalist European political alliance, formed at the congress of the French National Front (FN) in Strasbourg on 30 March 1997. It had a loose organisational structure, and was, in practice, based on coordination by activities of the FN.

The organisation failed to attract much support in Western Europe, as FN leader Jean-Marie Le Pen was more successful in gathering support in Eastern Europe. NordNat was an attempt to form a regional organisation by Nordic parties. As of the late 2000s, only the FN, BNP, ND, MS-FT, DN and NR parties were listed as members of EuroNat.

In a joint declaration, the founders of EuroNat expressed, among other things, the view that a "reborn" Europe "should be built with the European nations based on civilizations rooted in Greek, Celtic, Germanic, Latin and Christian traditions." The declaration was signed by representatives of, among others, Forza Nuova, the Greater Romanian Party and Democracia Nacional, as well as the previously mentioned Sweden Democrats and Front National.

Parties that at one point were part of the organisation include:
