Nationalist Party

by Ivan Sache 6 August 1999

Nationalist Party - Vertical red-white-blue with a white "mirrored" 3 in red stripe, a red P in white stripe and a white N in blue stripe. "By the coup of 11 October 1968, colonel Omar Torrijos, head of tha national guard, overthrew the president Arnulfo Arias, which had been elected a few days before." [eun]
At the date of parution of Smith's book, Panama was under the rule of a unique party, and I guess this was the Nationalist Party.
Source is Smith (1975), pp. 340-341 ("Symbols in politics"). Smith says that these are real flags and not only party emblems, which may differ in colours when used as emblem or in a flag.
Description of the party, comes from Encyclopaedia Universalis CD-ROM (1998)
Ivan Sache 6 August 1999

The 3PN stands for "Tercer Partido Nacionalista" (3rd Nationalist Party) - one of the government coalition parties that lost the 1968 elections won by the Panamenista party. 11 days after the Panamenista president was inaugurated, Torrijos overthrew him.
At the time of Smith´s book (1975) all political parties including the 3PN were banned by Torrijos and no unique official party existed. Torrijos formed the PRD party in 1979 also allowing all other parties.
The 3PN joined the Republican and one of the Liberal parties to form the opposition MOLIRENA.
