500 tribunes, elected from throughout the Azores, compose the Senate. The Senate is presided by the ''Dictator'' (currently DR. JOSÉ DÂMASO) and the ''Proconsul'' (currently DR. MIGUEL DE FARIA E CASTRO). There is only one legal party in the AFR - the '''Partido Nacional Republicano''' (National Republican Party). The party is at the same time a private corporation, being one of the leading investors in the pharmaceutical and petrochemical sectors in Europe.

Regarding external politics, the '''PBD''' is currently seeking to join the '''FMS''' (Free Market States), but it is currently appart of the '''CWN''' (Conferance of Western Nations), '''LCN''' (League of Capitalist Nations), and the '''EU''' (European Union). Its closest allies are [[Qantrix]], [[Gunnlandia]], [[Kheion]], [[Daracnia]], [[Azores]], [[Wazistan]] and [[Spanish Kingdom]].

The Program for Genetic Purity began in late 2003. It is managed by the Rectory of Genetics, in cooperation with the Rectories of War and Defence and Internal Affairs. The main purpose of the PGP is to purify the Azorean race, eliminating any deformed and degenerative genes, which result in physical or psychological deformations.

The Program for National Rememberance began in late 2004. The program is to help our younger generations learn about our horrible past, and to also educate the international community about treating your citzens like wild animals.
  
As soon as the program began to be implemented, people with physical or psychological deformations (among them homosexuals) were closed in Scientific Concentration Camps, in order to stop them from reproducing and spreading the degenerative genes. Results are visible, since the Azorean population has become much healthier since the implementation of the program - Azorean babies are nowadays those in Europe less subject to deformities at birth.

Politics

The PBD deviates from classical Capitalism, the basic structure of the Baharrian Government goes just as through many checks and balances. Starting first with the nationally elected President, then to the Vice-President, and then through the many different ministers of the Senato whom actually conduct the enforcement of the laws laid out by the President and Vice-President. The other branches of the government are the Congrès Grand (or commonly known as the Grand Congress), and the Gerichtsc Abteilung (or the Judicial Department)

Regarding external politics, the PBD is currently seeking to join the FMS (Free Market States), but it is currently appart of the CWN (Conferance of Western Nations), LCN (League of Capitalist Nations), and the EU (European Union).

The PBD also maintains cordial relations with other nations such as Eiffelland, Erlangen-Ansbach, Einland, MrNutty-Radilo, Russia-Borisgad, Saelsun Islands, Sortain and Hathoria.

Economy

The PBD is based on a free-market, capitalist economy where the State assumes the role of a Police State, i.e., only intervenes indirectly, creating laws without which the market wouldn't be able to function correctly.
