History
The party was formed in July 2013 by Rodolfo Borga, formerly the leader of The People of Freedom in the Provincial Council. In the 2013 provincial election the party supported Diego Mosna for President, in alliance with Trentino Project, and obtained 3.7% of the vote; Borga was re-elected to the Provincial Council.
In 2014 the CT was joined by two more councillors: Claudio Cia, who replaced Mosna, and Claudio Civettini, a splinter from Lega Nord Trentino.
In the 2015 municipal election in Trento the party joined forces with Lega Nord Trentino, Forza Italia, Trentino Project and Brothers of Italy: Cia, who ran for mayor, won 31.0% of the vote (and was defeated by the outgoing Democratic mayor Alessandro Andreatta), while the party list obtained 7.1%.
As of May 2015, the CT seemed headed toward an alliance with the Trentino Tyrolean Autonomist Party, instead that its 2015 centre-right allies, for the 2018 provincial election and this led Cia to leave the party and launch the alternative Act for Trentino.
