The regime aims to purge political institutions and set a seven year plan toward a new constitution slated for discussion by the National Assembly in October 1930. The 1923 bloodless revolution followed Moroccan campaigns and ousted the liberal ministry, with Rivera remaining leader through a civil dictatorship after 1925.
