Monarchy Era
Revolution and Civil War
In 1931 after years of anti-monarchist sentiment, including the assassination of King Alfonso members of the Republican-Federalist Party organized a coup against King Benito. In the aftermath of this revolution the King fled south to Gakretta, a civil war raged in Lissatha for the next 5 years before Benito was captured and arrested in 1936.
Modern Period
In the 1938 Lissathan Election Appolon Pachis won in a landslide, he spent his first two terms rebuilding Lissatha after the civil war, Pachis would serve as president for 6 terms from 1938 until his death from a stroke in 1961. He would be succeeded by his Vice President Diego Monaldo, who was only 43 at the time and very unexperienced, having served just 4 years in the Delaïkó before being chosen as vice president. Monaldo inherited a strong economy and rode that to re-election in 1962, but the economy crashed in 1965, leading to him losing in a landslide in 1966 to Nerio Iordanou, Nerio managed to bring the economy back to normal levels and passed the 6th amendment, setting a two term limit.
Over the 2000s the economy boomed and spending increased during the presidency of Akakios Bondesan but the economy crashed in 2008, leading to a massive debt crisis.
