The National Democratic Front (Arabic: الجبهة الوطنية الديمقراطية) was founded as an umbrella of various opposition movements in North Yemen on February 2, 1976 in Sana'a. The five founding organisations of NDF were the Revolutionary Democratic Party of Yemen, Organisation of Yemeni Revolutionary Resistors, the Labour Party, the Popular Vanguard and the Popular Democratic Union.[1]
On March 5, 1979, the five founding parties of the NDF merged to form the Yemeni Popular Unity Party. Four days later, the Popular Unity Party merged into the Yemeni Socialist Party (but retaining the name 'Popular Unity Party' for activities in North Yemen).[2] The NDF did however continue to exist as a separate structure. It was joined by Qassam Salam's Ba'ath Party, and the Democratic Septembrist Organization. In 1978 the Ba'ath Party left the front and in 1979 the June 13 Front of Popular Forces joined it.[1]
