The '''All-Bahian People's Revolutionary International''' is a regional {{wp|political international}} uniting {{wp|left-wing}} {{wp|political party|political parties}} and {{wp|social movement|social movements}} in [[Bahia]]. The International was launched by the [[Asalewan Section of the Workers' International]] in 1982 as an attempt to consolidate the Bahian left following the fall of {{wp|socialism|socialist}} governments sin the 1960s and 1970s in states like [[Mabifia]], [[Rwizikuru]], and [[Yemet]], and to formalize links between the Asalewan Section and other left-wing political parties and social movements in Bahia. In addition to the various Bahian [[Congress of the Workers' International|Sections of the Workers' International]], membership is open to other {{wp|left-wing}} parties in Bahia, and to other, non-party left-wing {{wp|social movements}} and {{wp|Communist party#Mass organizations|mass organizations}} in Bahia. Observer status is, additionally, open to left-wing parties and social movements with favorable policies towards {{wp|African diaspora in the Americas|Bahio-Asterians}} in the [[Asterias]], and to the {{wp|socialism|socialist}} states and Sections of the [[Brown Sea Community]].
The International's signature event is its annual Congress, held on May 13 in commemoration of the [[Pan-Bahian Congress of 1907]]. In addition to its annual Congress, the International sponsors several associations of social movements and mass organizations, most notably the {{wp|Profintern|All-Bahian Workers' Confederation}}, the {{wp|Krestintern|All-Bahian Peasants' Confederation}}, the {{wp|Communist Women's International|All-Bahian Women's Confederation}}, and the {{wp|International Red Aid|All-Bahian People's Mutual Aid Confeferation}}. Primarily through these affiliated international organization coordinates and sponsors extensive financial and advisory support to smaller and weaker left-wing organizations in the region from left-wing states, primarily from [[Asase Lewa]], but also from other members of the [[Association for International Socialism]], most prominently [[Dezevau]].

'''Asase Lewa''', officially the '''People's Commune of Asase Lewa''', is a {{wp|socialism|socialist}} {{wp|middle income country|middle-income country}} located in northern [[Bahia]] and [[Coius]] in [[Kylaris]], bordering [[Tiwura]] to the south. The third-most populous country in Bahia after [[Yemet]] and [[Mabifia]], the country has a population of 70 million, one-fifth of whom live in the capital and largest city of {{wp|city|Edudzi Agyeman City}}.
==Members==


Like the rest of Bahia, Asase Lewa is one of the oldest continuously-inhabited countries in the world. The country was largely governed according to the egalitarian, communalistic [[Sâre|Sâretic]] system until the tenth and eleventh countries, when the [[Irfan|Irfanic]] conquests of Bahia led to the development of the [[Hourege|Houregic]] system, the first recognizable states, throughout the region. However, Asase Lewa itself largely avoided Irfanization and remained largely [[Bahian Fetishism|Fetishist]]; furthermore, modern, Houregic states did not develop in the {{wp|Zomia|Asalewan Highlands}}, where between one-fourth and one-third of the population lived; the Highlands instead saw the development of the {{wp|Moka exchange|ojeṣẹbun system}}{{ref|a}}, a modified version of Sâre. The division between the Asalewan Lowlands, which boasted exceptional agricultural fertility and whose inhabitants {{wp|The Art of Not Being Governed|frequently fled to the Highlands to avoid state control and associated issues such as forced labor}}, and the Asalewan Highlands, avoiding state development and whose inhabitants frequently raided or invaded the Lowlands whenever the Highlands suffered from {{wp|overpopulation}}, remained a prominent feature of Asalewan society until the twentieth century.
===Full members===


A center, albeit a fairly minor one, of the {{wp|Atlantic slave trade|Bahian slave trade}}, the Asalewan Lowlands became a major exporter of the {{wp|cash crop}} {{wp|coffee}}, and later {{wp|cocoa}}, {{wp|sugar}}, and {{wp|spices}}, from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries. During and after the Bahian collapse, the Lowlands and an increasingly depopulated foothills and fringe between the Lowlands and Highlands, were colonized during the [[Toubacterie]] in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Except in majority-{{wp|Akan people|Akan}} areas in northern Asase Lewa, the Toubacterie had a far more disruptive effect on Lowlander society than elsewhere in Bahia, as the colonial state reorganized Lowlander agriculture and economy for producing and exporting these cash crops under the {{wp|plantation economy|Asalewan plantation system}}.

Asase Lewa saw far more radical anti-colonial movements, and achieved independence earlier, than other Bahian states. The {{wp|socialism|socialist}} {{wp|Chinese Communist Party|Asalewan Section of the Workers' International}} successfully waged the {{wp|Chinese Communist Revolution|Asalewan Revolution}}, a twenty-year {{wp|people's war|revolutionary war}} which led to Asase Lewa's independence in 1940 and one of the largest and most rapid reductions in {{wp|economic inequality}} in human history. Over the next thirty years, the new state virtually ended the Highland-Lowland divide by ending the centuries-long Ojeṣẹbun system through {{wp|collectivization}}, and established a {{wp|command economy}} that made significant progress in {{wp|economic development}}, {{wp|healthcare}}, and {{wp|education}}. However, it became increasingly authoritarian, with the Section of the Workers' International establishing a {{wp|dominant-party state|dominant}} and then {{wp|single-party state}}, and {{wp|mass killings of landlords under Mao Zedong|encouraging its supporters to kill, or directly killing, dissidents and class enemies}}. In the 1960s, crisis triggered by the [[Sugar Crash]] and the collapse of the [[United Bahian Republic]], which Asase Lewa was a member of, led Asalewan leader {{wp|Mao Zedong|Edudzi Agyeman}} to launch the {{wp|Cultural Revolution|Protective-Corrective Revolution}}, which caused considerable chaos but eventually led to the establishment of {{wp|multi-party system|multi-party democracy}} as a [[council republic]], and the reorganization of the Asalewan economy under the framework of {{wp|participatory economics}} and {{wp|labor voucher|labor vouchers}}, supplemented by a large, generous {{wp|welfare state}} and {{wp|Rationing in Cuba|rationing-based subsidies for basic goods}}.
===Observers===


Commentators usually classify Asase Lewa as a {{wp|hybrid regime}} and {{wp|flawed democracy|flawed}}, or [[Southern democracy|Southern]], democracy. Criticism of the socialist system is strictly prohibited and monitored by the {{wp|Committees for the Defense of the Revolution|Revolutionary Communist Construction Committees}}, and the Section, which no longer participates in elections, retains significant power in Asalean society, most prominently {{wp|Guardian Council|the power to veto candidates}} and ''de facto'' total control over {{wp|foreign policy}}. Nevertheless, since the 1970s Asase Lewa has been classified as one of the most {{wp|political stability|stable}} and {{wp|democracy|democratic}} states in Bahia; elections are relatively free and fair and Asase Lewa is one of the few Bahian states to not experience a successful {{wp|coup d'etat}} since decolonization. Furthermore, the country has—during both colonial and socialist rule—boasted one of the wealthiest, most productive, and most diversified economies in the region, metrics supplemented since the Asalewan Revolution by comparatively high rankings on key metrics of human development such as {{wp|literacy}}, {{wp|life expectancy}}, {{wp|infant mortality}}, and {{wp|malnutrition}}, and by one of the most {{wp|economic inequality|egalitarian distributions of wealth}} in the world. A member of the [[Association for International Socialism]], the country is closely aligned with other {{wp|socialism|socialist countries}}, and is additionally a member of the [[Community of Nations]], [[International Forum for Developing States]], and [[Congress of Bahian States]].
Observers of the International include sympathetic, but not fully supportive, left-wing Bahian parties, sympathetic states and Sections in the [[Brown Sea Community]], and left-wing parties in the [[Asterias]] sympathetic to the concerns of {{wp|African diaspora in the Americas|Bahio-Asterians}}.

The All-Bahian People's Revolutionary International is a regional political international uniting left-wing political parties and social movements in Bahia. The International was launched by the Asalewan Section of the Workers' International in 1982 as an attempt to consolidate the Bahian left following the fall of socialist governments sin the 1960s and 1970s in states like Mabifia, Rwizikuru, and Yemet, and to formalize links between the Asalewan Section and other left-wing political parties and social movements in Bahia. In addition to the various Bahian Sections of the Workers' International, membership is open to other left-wing parties in Bahia, and to other, non-party left-wing social movements and mass organizations in Bahia. Observer status is, additionally, open to left-wing parties and social movements with favorable policies towards Bahio-Asterians in the Asterias, and to the socialist states and Sections of the Brown Sea Community.

The International's signature event is its annual Congress, held on May 13 in commemoration of the Pan-Bahian Congress of 1907. In addition to its annual Congress, the International sponsors several associations of social movements and mass organizations, most notably the All-Bahian Workers' Confederation, the All-Bahian Peasants' Confederation, the All-Bahian Women's Confederation, and the All-Bahian People's Mutual Aid Confeferation. Primarily through these affiliated international organization coordinates and sponsors extensive financial and advisory support to smaller and weaker left-wing organizations in the region from left-wing states, primarily from Asase Lewa, but also from other members of the Association for International Socialism, most prominently Dezevau.
