1		Sardar Mahrdad Ali Sattari (1891-1952)	5 August 1950	5 February 1953	2 years, 184 days	Revolutionary Masses Party	Ali Sattari had previously served as Supreme Commander of the Revolutionary Resistance, leading Pardarian nationalists in the Khordad Rebellion against Etruria. His defeat saw his exile to Xiaodong between 1922 and 1928 before returning to lead the Pardarian Revolutionary Resistance Command in the Pardarian Uprising. His leadership of the PRRC in the Pardarian Civil War saw the establishment of the National Republic in 1950 and the emergence of Sattarism as the guiding ideology. Despite initial opposition to the Pan-Zorasanist wing of the RMP, Sattari gave into popular pressure following the Khazi Revolution, and authorised the unification of Khazestan and Pardaran. He is revered as the founding father of the modern-day Union of Zorasani Irfanic Republics.

However, ill-health began to degrade his abilities before retreating from public affairs in 1953. Sattari died of cancer a year later in March 1954.
3		Sardar Hossein Khalatbari (1894-1956)	3 January 1956	20 July 1956	199 days	Revolutionary Masses Party	Khalatbari was appointed Supreme Leader of the Union on an interim basis in wake of the death of Ali Sattari. His lack of charisma and firm connections saw his failure to secure an immediate "coronation" as the formal head of state. In response he repeatedly delayed the necessary Revolutionary Command Congress which would elect a new head of state, which further degraded his support. Under pressure from regime elites, he gave way to a Congress, where he lost decisively to Ali Sayyad Gharazi on 20 April 1953. Gharazi and his allies then launched the Corrective Revolution, which saw Khalatbari and his allies expelled from the party and ultimately imprisoned. Khalatbari died in prison on 3 February 1956.
4		Sardar Ali Sayyad Gharazi (1917-1972)	20 July 1956	22 October 1972	16 years, 94 days	Revolutionary Masses Party	Ali Gharazi was a popular military commander and senior figure in the Revolutionary Masses Party, following his election in the 1952 Revolutionary Command Congress, he instituted the Corrective Revolution. He consolidate his power and that of the Pan-Zorasanist wing of the RMP, setting in motion Zorasani unification. His government waged both a covert, terroristic and propaganda campaign against the Badawiyan monarchies to the north, while steadily modernising the UKP's armed forces. His government instituted economic reforms and major projects, establishing ties to numerous anti-colonial movements throughout Coius and Bahia. In 1962, he led the UKP to victory in the Kexri Conflict, which saw the defeated Kexri Republic absorbed into the UKP. This was immediately followed by the Badawiyan War, resulting in the decisive defeat of the Badawiyan allies and annexation of North Khazestan. He died in office in 1972, he is also revered as a founding father of modern-day Zorasan.
5		Sardar Abdullah al-Atassi (1914-1976)	22 October 1972	17 November 1976	4 years, 26 days	Revolutionary Masses Party	Al-Atassi previously served as the First Minister under Ali Sayyad Gharazi and had established a strong network of allies, enabling him to be swiftly elected as his successor at the November Revolutionary Command Congress. Al-Atassi continued much of Gharazi's agitations toward rival Badawiyan states. He is widely believed to have played a key role in the Assassination of Emir Mohammad bin Rashid, the monarch of the Riyhadi Confederation in 1973. In 1974, Al-Atassi oversaw the annexation of the Riyhadi Confederation into the UKP following the 1974 Riyadhi coup d'état. In 1975, the Irvadistan War began with a surprise Irvadi invasion of northern Khazestan. Despite being initially caught off-guard, the UKP stabilised the front by 1975 and began its counter-attack. In 1976, Al-Atassi was assassinated by a Badawiyan nationalist while visiting northern Khazestan.
6		Sardar Javad Jahandar (1918-1988)	17 November 1976	11 January 1980	3 years, 55 days	Revolutionary Masses Party	Jahandar was a prominent military commander, serving as Supreme Commander of the Zorasani Revolutionary Army from 1969. His success in stabilising the front against Irvadistan in 1975 and his prior record in political offices led to his swift election as Supreme Leader in wake of Abdullah al-Atassi's assassination. Jahandar immediately became assumed his role as a war-leader, overseeing the ZRA's repeated victories against Irvadistan. Irvadistan would be defeated by 1979, which conincided with a succcesful coup by pro-UKP elements inside Irvadistan. Despite his wish to retire from political office following the UKP's victory, he was pressured to remain in office through popular acclamation. He accepted and began to oversee the integration of Irvadistan into the UKP, which saw the completion of Zorasani unification.
