History
=Foundation and participation in government=
The party was founded on 11 June 2009 by Miroslav Kalousek who left the Christian and Democratic Union – Czechoslovak People's Party.{{Cite news |title=Tschechien: Jugend vereint gegen Linksparteien |first=Alexandra |last=Klausmann |newspaper=Wiener Zeitung |date=21 May 2010 |url=http://www.wienerzeitung.at/default.aspx?tabID=3861&alias=wzo&cob=494591 |language=de |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110606122248/http://www.wienerzeitung.at/default.aspx?tabID=3861&alias=wzo&cob=494591 |archive-date=6 June 2011}} Its first leader was Karel Schwarzenberg, who had previously served as Minister of Foreign Affairs in the second Topolánek cabinet from January 2007 to March 2009, having been nominated by the Green Party for the post, and who had been elected to the Senate in 2004 as nominee of the Freedom Union – Democratic Union (US-DEU) and Civic Democratic Alliance (ODA) parties.{{Cite news |title=Schwarzenberg to be Kalousek's Czech TOP 09 party leader |newspaper=Czech News Agency |date=11 June 2009 |url=http://www.ceskenoviny.cz/news/zpravy/schwarzenberg-to-be-kalousek-s-czech-top-09-party-leader/382144 }}[http://en.top09.cz/about-us/presidency/karel-schwarzenberg-1727.html "Karel Schwarzenberg"], TOP 09 party website, retrieved 7 June 2013

In the 2010 parliament elections on 28–29 May 2010, TOP 09 received 16.7% of the vote and 41 seats, becoming the third largest party.{{Cite web|url=http://volby.cz/pls/ps2010/ps2?xjazyk=EN |title=Official results of election to the Parliament of the Czech Republic 2010 |publisher=Volby.cz |date=29 May 2010 |access-date=14 April 2011}} The party joined the Nečas cabinet, forming a coalition with the Civic Democratic Party (ODS) and Public Affairs (VV).{{cite book|author=Sten Berglund|title=The Handbook of Political Change in Eastern Europe|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=hmtuqFnuDZwC&pg=PA231|year=2013|publisher=Edward Elgar Publishing|isbn=978-1-78254-588-0|pages=231–232}}
In September 2010 TOP 09 applied to join the European People's Party. Karel Schwarzenberg had already officially participated in two EPP summits (15 September{{Cite web|url=http://www.epp.eu/press.asp?artid=1449&fullview=1 |title=EPP welcomes European Council conclusions; Roma issue should not be exploited |publisher=Epp.eu |date=16 September 2010 |access-date=14 April 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720094835/http://www.epp.eu/press.asp?artid=1449&fullview=1 |archive-date=20 July 2011 }} and 16 December 2010{{Cite web|url=http://www.epp.eu/press.asp?artid=1514&fullview=1 |title=EPP official website |publisher=Epp.eu |access-date=14 April 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720094959/http://www.epp.eu/press.asp?artid=1514&fullview=1 |archive-date=20 July 2011 }}). On 10 February 2011 TOP 09 was granted permission to join the EPP.{{Cite web|url=http://www.top09.cz/co-delame/tiskove-zpravy/top-09-clenem-nejsilnejsi-evropske-strany-5131.html |title=TOP 09 členem nejsilnější evropské strany |publisher=TOP 09|access-date=14 April 2011}}
In the 2013 legislative election on 25–26 October 2013, TOP 09 won 12% of the vote and 26 seats. The party became part of the parliamentary opposition to the Sobotka cabinet.
=Opposition and cooperation with STAN and ODS=
In the 2014 European elections on 24 and 25 May 2014, TOP 09 reached second place nationally with 15.95% of the vote, electing 4 MEPs.
Karel Schwarzenberg left the position of leader in 2015. He was replaced by Miroslav Kalousek afterwards.
In March 2016, Karel Tureček left the party and joined ANO 2011, which left TOP 09 with 25 MPs.{{cite web|last1=Kopecký|first1=Josef|title=Turečka vyhodili z klubu TOP 09.

The 2016 Czech regional elections were a major loss for TOP 09. The party gained only 19 seats and 3.4% of the vote. Miroslav Kalousek then considered resigning, but decided to remain the party’s leader.{{cite web|publisher=Česká televize|title=Kalousek chce vědět, zda má pokračovat.

In January 2017, TOP 09 introduced a new program called Vision 2030, in which it declared intentions to adopt the Euro, implement electronical voting, and increase health standards in Czechia to Germany's level. TOP 09 also wanted to shorten the working week to 4 days. Miroslav Kalousek said he believed that TOP 09 would get over 10% in the upcoming legislative election even though recent opinion polls indicated that TOP 09 might not reach the 5% threshold.{{cite web|title=Třináctiletka TOP 09 počítá s internetovými volbami i zavedením eura|url=https://www.novinky.cz/domaci/427783-trinactiletka-top-09-pocita-s-internetovymi-volbami-i-zavedenim-eura.html|website=Novinky.cz|access-date=29 January 2017|language=cs}}{{cite web|title=TOP 09 slibuje životní úroveň jako v Německu do 2030 a boj za střední třídu|url=http://zpravy.idnes.cz/top-09-slibuje-vyrovnani-zivotni-urovne-s-nemeckem-fwc-/domaci.aspx?c=A170128_145343_domaci_kop|website=iDNES.cz|access-date=29 January 2017|date=28 January 2017}}

In the next year municipal elections TOP 09 got only 1.1 per cent of the vote nationally. The best performance for the party was in the Prague City council elections, following which it joined a coalition with the Czech Pirate Party and Prague Together.
In November, 2019, Markéta Pekarová Adamová was elected party’s leader.{{cite web |title=Navzdory Kalouskovi.

As a result of agreements made to form these alliances, TOP 09 leader Markéta Pekarová Adamová became President of the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic.
On 20 November 2021 Pekarová Adamová was reelected in a TOP 09 leadership election, with 163 out of 176 votes, being the only candidate.{{cite web|first=Josef|last=Kopecký|title=Pekarová obhájila post šéfky TOP 09.

Ideology
TOP 09 is characterised most prominently by its economic liberalism and its pro-Europeanism,{{cite book|author1=Dan Marek|author2=Michael Baun|title=The Czech Republic and the European Union|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sEFZBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA45|year=2010|publisher=Routledge|isbn=978-1-136-94098-9|page=45}} being firmly in favour of European integration.{{cite book|author=Michal Klima|chapter=Czech Republic|editor=Donatella M.
