The Campeonato Amapaense started in 1944, one year after Amapá was separeted from Pará, turning into a federal territory.[2] The Federação Amapaense, that organizes the competition, was created in June 26, 1945.[3] Glicério Marques, the stadium that were played the matches at the time, was inaugurated in January 15, 1950, with a match between the now extinct teams of Amapá and Pará, which ended 1x0 to Pará.[3][4]
The competition became professional in 1991, that were won by EC Macapá, when they won 2x1 against Amapá Clube, its first professional title.[5] And in 1996, the competition was not played because of financial reasons, the last time this happened, counting all states of Brazil.[2]
