The party was established as the
Union of Moderate Conservatives (
Nuosaikiųjų konservatorių sąjunga) in 2000 as a breakaway from the
Homeland Union. Initially led by the former prime minister,
Gediminas Vagnorius, it contested the
2000 elections, receiving 2% of the vote and winning a single seat. By the
2004 elections, the party had been renamed the Christian Conservative Social Union. It received again 2% of the vote, but lost its single seat in the
Seimas. On 23 January 2010, it merged with a faction of the
Lithuanian Christian Democracy Party to form the
Christian Party. ==References==
