Popular Socialist Vanguard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Vanguardia Popular Socialista (VPS; English: Popular Socialist Vanguard) was a nationalist Chilean political party created in 1938.[1] It was the direct heir of the National Socialist Movement of Chile (MNS) and founded as a consequence of the failed fascist coup in 1938 and its repression.
