The Wahdist League, as a political party, was not a legal party until the successful Wahdist Revolution which overthrew the [[Sadeghid Qawahtanate]].

Line 46:
Azageh would declare that a premature national election would have to be held as the current government had been incapacitated. Then Minister of Agriculture, Mir-Jafar Kashafli, would be elected as Chairman of the Wahdist League. The Wahdist League would again win the National Elections and Kashafli would form his cabinet soon after. Kashafli would go on to hold the position of President for one full term. Unexpectedly, Kashafli announced he would not be running for a second term in office and declared he would retire from politics the day after his presidency ended. He cited "personal reasons" for his reason of resignation.

Al-Basim's presidency is considered to be extremely controversial. He is seen as the reason for the Wahdist League losing in the 1994 and 1998 National Elections.

In 1993, a scandal involving the assassination of far-left politician, Bozorg Tahabadi, resulted in many blaming Al-Basim's government for corruption and dictatorial rule. Al-Basim announced he would be resigning from politics after his presidential term ended in similar fashion to his predecessor. He also cited "personal reasons" for his reason of resignation.
