The party was founded in 1886, as the second political party in Norway. Despite the growing worker class in Norway, the party didn't get any representatives in the [[Stortinget|Storting]] until 1903. The first time the Labour Party was granted governmental power was in 1928, led by [[Christopher Hornsrud]] as Prime Minister. However, this government only lasted some few weeks, so the real start of the Labour Party's golden age as major governing party started in 1935, when the popular [[Johan Nygaardsvold]] became Prime Minister. His leadership during the [[Second World War]] increased the party's power.
