The Authoritarian Working People's Front (Autuzian: Fiesse otoritaire des djins ovraedjes, FODO, colloquially Otoritaires) was the sole governing party of the autocratic revolutionary Council Republic of Auzance in the decade and a half after the dissolution of the Provisional Government in 1934. Led by Remy Warnot virtually throughout its entire existence, the Otoritaires transitioned Auzance slowly from a semi-democratic council republic to a totalitarian state socialist country, while their defunctionalisation programme - initially aimed at those "compliant" to the national functionalist regime - was expanded to legitimise the persecution of Gaullican speakers, religious people, other non-adherents to Otoritaire politics (particularly liberals, social democrats and conservatives, deemed by the Front to be social functionalists), and those deemed to have stepped outside of the "Autuzian ideal" - including homosexuals, those seeking abortions and misogynists. Initially councilist, the Otoritaires gradually moved towards centralising powers at the expense of ideology, and adopted an approach more closely resemblant of state socialism.
