The United Bahian Republic was a confederation in Bahia which existed from 1954 to 1956. Comprised of the entirety of present-day Garambura, Rwizikuru, Tabora, and Djedet as well as parts of present-day Mabifia, it was intended as a political union between Rwizikuru, Tabora, and Djedet with the intention of inviting other Bahian states to join.

History
Formation
seizure of the Bahian bits of the Adunis to Mambiza Railway by coalition of Bahian nations (Rwizikuru, Djedet, and Tabora) is a huge boon for Pan-Bahianism, people demand formation of UBR, politicians agree to do so
Heyday
tensions arise over languages, capital, and foreign policy and role of both the UBR government and member states, but UBR somewhat functions effectively enough to limp along, beginnings of centralization and unification of military, joins Congress of Bahian States as the UBR?
Decline
Tabora leaves after Izibongo Ngonidzashe crowns himself King, Djedet severs diplomatic relations with Rwizikuru but UBR still exists because of railway: language issue and diplomatic issues still plague the UBR
Government
The United Bahian Republic was headed by a collective leadership, with the Presidents of the United Bahian Republic being designated as such due to their positions as being the country's leaders. This was organised so that no one person had too much power within the United Bahian Republic.
The legislature of the United Bahian Republic was the Bahian Assembly, comprising of 100 members. They had the power to legislate over the issues of foreign affairs, defence, and monetary affairs, as well as pass budgets for the operation of the government of the United Bahian Republic.
Originally, the institutions of the United Bahian Republic were located in the capital cities of its member states until 1961, when government buildings in the town of Maware, in present-day Garambura, were completed for institutions of the UBR to move into the town.
Politically, the United Bahian Republic was meant to be a confederation, with the federal government only having jurisdiction over foreign affairs, defence, and monetary affairs, and its member states maintaining sovereignty over all other affairs.
Member states
During its existence, the United Bahian Republic comprised of three member states from 1954 to 1964, and then two member states until its dissolution in 1969.

Prospective members
During the existence of the United Bahian Republic, some countries in Bahia expressed their interest in joining the United Bahian Republic. However, due to various reasons, the United Bahian Republic never expanded beyond its three initial members.
