Early Life
Juan Ramon Costa was born on April 9th, 1901 in Northrock, New Liverpool. His family was rich and enrolled him in classical education. At age 20, he became an economist. He said that the system of government needed "Reform to protect its citizens". In 1929 he created the National Reform Party of Slokais. In 1932 he was elected to the House of Representatives and held the same seat for almost 30 years, however, by 1950 he was one of the most powerful figures as his party grew to 15 seats. In 1955 he formed the Reform Party Liberation Force, which was a para-military force that would often clash with Leftist protesters. During the late 50s, he quickly grew in power and by 1960 he was a front-runner in the Presidential race.
Presidential Era
After winning the 1960 election he released his guide to a "Better Living in a Reformed System", this was his personal opinion, and it became a national standard for education. He also built up the military and incorporated the RPLF into the Army. In 1961, he changed the constitution to extend his term to 8 years, this was met by protests that were quickly put down. At this point with nothing stopping him, he took complete executive control of the government and placed all legislative power in the new Reformist Congress of State. He also closed the country and then began a massive economic push, encouraging "all people to learn their place in the new reformist state".
