The National Reconstruction Front is a centre-right big tent and founding political party of the Democratic Republic of Daxia. Founded in 1957 by Dai Hanjian by agglutinating several pro-democracy movements , war veterans's associations and emerging labor organizations. The NRF maintained absolute and uninterrupted power from 1945 to 1992 and presided over a dominant party system with no corresponding checks and balances to its power. This system was maintained by a combination of corporatism, coercion and repression. Established after Dai Hanjian's 'Glorious Revolt' that toppled monarchical rule, it provided him and the military rulers after him with a wafer-thin veneer of democratic legitimacy that was renovated by elections that were never free nor fair and often without any candidates to oppose the NRF. Upon its 1992 defeat in national elections the party rapidly lost power and positions until it was banned for five years before being reactivated as a satellite organization of the Party of Daxian Democrats.

During its five decades in power the party went from favoring center-left, statist policies to preferring a more mixed model with some market oriented reforms that included privatization of certain state industries and abandoning import substitution programs. This ideological evolution however did not touch the economic interests of the Army which continued to have an outsized political and economic influence.
