The Reform Party is a centrist, classical liberal political party in Ambrose. It is considered one of the "Big Four" political parties in the country, holding 41 seats in the House of Burgesses and forming the nucleus of the official opposition under the leadership of George Eadlyn Pitt.

The party's roots are in that of the Liberal Party, which alternated the presidency and the legislature in a two-party system with the Conservatives for a century (between 1872 and 1972). After a series of electoral setbacks the Liberals rebranded themselves as the Reform Party in 1972, only to be returned to power in a landslide following the collapse of the Conservative government during the War of the Njord. Since then, the party has held the presidency thrice and has consistently remained the second-largest party in the House.

Ideologically, the party continues the same traditions of federalism, limited government, and civil liberty as its Liberal predecessor, albeit with a more pronounced progressive undercurrent. It is seen as the most internationalist major party, advocating for a referendum on application to the Esquarian Community, and it is a member of the Union of Esquarian Liberals and Democrats.
