The article focuses on analysing the activity of the National Party in South Africa from its establishment in 1914 until disbanding in 2005 as well as the article covers period of the last years when the attempts to reestablish the party occurred. At first, the aims of the party were presented with practise of their implementation (Afrikaner nationalism, Republicanism) during the inter-war period and especially after 1948 when the National Party, after winning election, started to rule South Africa continuously for 46 years. The phenomenon of supremacy of the National Party, its growing support among white electorate against a background of introducing apartheid policy and its later modifications are widely explained. Special emphasis is drawn to the period of transition and the role of National Party in the process.
