Zanzibar Nationalist Party
The Zanzibar Nationalist Party was a political party founded in 1955 that campaigned for independence and drew much of its support from the Arab community and allied groups. In alliance with the Zanzibar and Pemba People's Party it formed the government when Zanzibar became independent under the sultan in December 1963. It was overthrown in the Zanzibar Revolution a month later.
