Party founded in 2002 after the failure of the platform with the same name that united several far-right organizations for the European elections of the year 2000. The project was led by the Valencian businessman and lawyer José Luis Roberto Navarro, formerly leader of the o Falange Española-Frente Nacional Sindicalista party and former local chief of the Central Obrera Nacional Sindicalista (CONS). The party defines itself as social-patriot or national-populist, contrary
to “uncontrolled and invasive” immigration, to the state of autonomies and globalization. España2000 has focused its campaigns on three main axes:
immigration and Islam, Spanish nationalism and harassment and provocation left. In 2009, España2000 would sign with two other extreme-right parties, the Movimiento Social Republicano (MSR) and the Frente Nacional (FN), a minimum pact to collaborate in some campaigns and respect the work of each of the signatory parties. The pact was signed in September in Valencia by José Luis Roberto (España2000), Juan Antonio Llopart (MSR) and Fernando Cantalapiedra (FN). The alliance would not last more than a year, after the collaboration of España2000 with España y Libertad (EyL), a markedly pro-Israel organization. España2000’s relationship with other far-right groups in Valencia is common, even with some of the leaders of the fans radical of Valencia CF and his already dissolved ultra group, Yomus.
España2000 focused practically all its activity in the Valencian Country, where he would get representation in various municipalities. The year 2007 would achieve for the first time two councilors, one in Silla (Valencia) and another in Onda (Castellón). In the following municipal elections of 2011, the party would double the results and obtain one more councilor in Silla and a new one in Dos Aguas (Valencia).
The second councilor who obtained in Silla, José Alejandro Serrador, a known neo-Nazi linked to the Valencia CF ultras, was then accused in the so-called Operation Panzer, an investigation of the Civil Guard that had taken place in 2005. The case accused twenty neonazis from being part of the Frente Antisistema (FAS), a neo-Nazi organization. The trial would be held ten years later and all those investigated would be acquitted, as the judge invalidated the wiretaps
telephone numbers in which the investigation was sustained. He would also get to enter for the first time in a City Hall outside of the Valencian Country, Alcalá de Henares (Madrid), with Rafael Ripoll as councilor. Ripoll, who had previously been a member of the neonazi party Democracia Nacional (DN), would later replace the presidency of España2000 to José Luis Roberto and would become the institutional face party visible. The party, in the municipal elections of 2015, lost the majority of its councilors in Valencia (keeping only one in Silla), but achieved its best results in the Corredor del Henares. In the last municipal elections of 2019, the party lost the councilor of Alcalá de Henares, although he added one more in Velilla de San Antonio, where he would get three councilors. In 2000, the Hacer Nación party arose and members of España2000 joined this new platform.
