History
HSP BiH was founded in 1991 as branch of Croatian Party of Rights. One of the most notable early members of the party is Blaž Kraljević, a general of the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina and founder of the Croatian Defence Forces in Bosnia and Herzegovina. His unit made significiant efforts in defence of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Party's activity during War in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992–1995) was marked by efforts of keeping unity and friendship of Croats and Bosniaks, its resistance against partition of Bosnia and Herzegovina between Republic of Croatia and FR Yugoslavia and devotion on unification of Croatian and Bosniak state. Part'y earlier political orientation was more nationalist and radicale. After Croatian Democratic Union eliminated Kraljević and had political monopoly over Herzeg-Bosnia, HSP BiH was dissolved. However, party's activity was once again established in 1996.
In 2004, HSP BiH changed name in "Croatian Party of Rights of Bosnia and Herzegovina Đapić - dr. Jurišić", but in 2010, party took its earlier name.
In February 2010 it was announced that presidents of three parties, Zvonko Jurišić of HSP BiH, Milenko Brkić of Croatian People's Union (HNZ) and Petar Milić of Croatian Union of Herzeg-Bosnia (HZHB), have signed a treaty about unification of those three parties in one party under name "Croatian Party of Rights of Bosnia and Herzegovina" in Mostar.
