Reston

Founding
The country Reston was formed out of the Kingdom of Daica during its downfall. Reston was made up of several smaller counties within the occupied territory, formally the kingdom of Paral.

When the people decided their human leaders had been too brutal on the monsters during The War For Humanity, they rose up against the nobles in the region in violent takeovers. Following the takeovers, the people declared independence, founding Reston on July 4th, 1882.

The Mountain War
The Mountain War was fought for control over the southern portions of the mountain range, which soon became known as the Niadurn Mountain Range. The war, like many of the human wars prior, would end in a stalemate with an unsteady armistice. The mountain range is now considered to be a demilitarized zone.

Prime Minister
The Prime Minister is the leader of Reston. He or she is the one that proposes bills and new laws for the country. In a national crisis, they are often given emergency power, allowing them more direct control over the military, and civil services.

The PM does not serve terms, rather they stay in power until either he or she retires, or until outside circumstances forces them to resign. This can be range from old age impairing their ability to work, a disability or sickness preventing them from conducting duties properly, all the way up to death through some form or another.

Reston Parliament
The Reston Parliament is made up of 30 members. These are the people who vote on new bills and laws that the prime minister wishes to put forward. Unless the prime minister has emergency powers, he or she can not make any major action or order without the approval vote. Votes in this parliament must be made impartially, and is based on a majority system. In the event of a tie, then the final vote goes to the prime minister themself.

The members of parliament are elected on a bi-annual basis in 30 different locations across the country. These votes are made by the people, so it can not in any way be biased towards the prime minister and their own interests. If they feel that the prime minister is acting out of line, is putting their country in a critical position deliberately, or if they simply feel like he isn't doing his job properly, they can vote to remove him from his position.

In the event of this happening, of which there are only two occurrences of, the members of parliament split the work load among themselves until a new Prime Minister can be elected, usually within one year of the old PM being removed from power.
