The Alliance for Freedom and Prosperty–Bahian Renaissance Movement (Gaullican: Alliance pour la liberté et la prospérité–Mouvement de la Renaissance Baïenne; ALP–MRB) is a political party in Garambura that has historically been the dominant and ruling party of the country since its independence in 1969. Its current chairman is Mamadou Atla Isang, and the party also provides the current Garamburan president, Sylvain Sikali.
The party was founded officially in 1963 in Verlois, Gaullica, by the Verlois-educated Takakunda Kuda Kani, the Kgosi of Kaudwanaland, and the Damesbridge-educated Papa Kadu, the Kalonga of Njinjiland. The founders' status as both native royalty and prestigious academics brought the ALP–MRB to the immediate centre of the Garamburan independence movement. Initially, the civilian and academic side of the party struggled against its influential armed wing, the East Riziland Liberation Front (FLRE), especially in the early stages of Garamburan statehood. Officially, the party committed to policies of Pan-Bahianism, but pragmatically sought furthered relations with Gaullica and Estmere and adopted hostile foreign policy to neighbouring socialist states, at one point all three of Maucha, Rwizikuru and Yemet, under the perceived necessity of national defence. To this effect, the party positioned Garambura as the north's most valuable Bahian ally, particularly as much of the continent came under the control of various socialist governments. Gaullica and Garambura continue to share advanced cultural, diplomatic and political bilateral relations that were pioneered by the early administrations of the party.
Despite its close relations with the north, it came under widespread criticism for its authoritarian policies, particularly by diasporic groups still active in Euclea. Gerrymandering was widespread and organisations such as the press, trade unions, non-governmental organisations, religious groups and political activists came under heavy repression if they became oppositional to the party. Party propaganda was widespread and effective within the country. It was not until the administration of Assavasdou Mombeshura that the ALP–MRB gradually liberalised the country, allowing opposition parties to gain greater power. The process has gradually continued, but in many ways the party still retains its dominant position in Garamburan politics.
The party has always been the sole party of governance since 1969, though since the early 2000s it has consistently decreased in vote share to opposition parties, which often act in the form of a unified opposition, resulting in a record low 80 seats in 2021, though still enough to maintain majority government in the legislature.
As one of the most notorious Bahian political parties with a Pan-Bahian academic background, the party, its leaders and its policies have been a popular case study for modern Bahian academics, as well as political scientists researching benevolent dictatorships. The party's grossly authoritarian measures stood in opposition to established principles of democracy and representation in organisations such as the Community of Nations or the International Council for Democracy, but elevated Garambura to one of the world's fastest-growing and developing economies as well as a significant regional power in Bahia.
