It was established as a foundation , among the founders were Fridtjof Nansen and the former Prime Minister Christian Michelsen . The aim was to create a bourgeois counterweight against the growing socialism . In 1936 the organization proposed Hitler and Mussolini for the Nobel Peace Prize . It played an important role in the Storting election of 1930, but then lost its importance and increasingly came under the influence of Italian fascism and German National Socialism . After the German invasion, the organization under its chairman Victor Mogens tried to establish itself as a political alternative to Vidkun Quisling . On September 25, 1940, it was dissolved by the Reich Commissioner Terboven .

Anders Lange , the founder of the Fremskrittspartiet , was secretary of the Fedrelandslaget from 1930 to 1938.
