The Historic Pact (Spanish: Pacto Histórico, PH) is a Colombian political party founded on 13 June 2025.[1][2] It is the result of the union of the parties Patriotic Union, Alternative Democratic Pole, and the Colombian Communist Party that formed part of the political coalition Historic Pact for Colombia.[3][4] Although the merger was approved by the National Electoral Council on 17 September 2025,[5] it still lacked the legal personality needed to be considered an official political party until granted by the CNE on 3 December of that year.[6][7] Humane Colombia was intended to be one of the parties that merged to create PH, but this was declined by the CNE due to a lack of quorum in approving the merger.
