I know that there are a few countries that have longer term cycles of eight years and up. I think that the fact that they use the term president rather than something else establishes the fact that he is, at the very least, an elected official rather than a dictator like Adel. They take time to explain that Esthar was different back then.
Yes. Laguna has ruled for at least 17 years in FFVIII, right? Any democracies we know that run term limits that long or longer? If so, is it still considered a democracy?
