The Republicans (Portuguese: Republicanos), formerly the Brazilian Republican Party (Portuguese: Partido Republicano Brasileiro, PRB) and originally formed as the Municipalist Renewal Party (Portuguese: Partido Municipalista Renovador, PMR), is a Brazilian political party. Its electoral number, the numerical assignment for Brazilian political parties, is 10.
The party is socially conservative and economically liberal, and also has a strong association with the evangelical Universal Church of the Kingdom of God. As the PRB, it was the party of former Vice President of Brazil José Alencar, where it was part of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's government. While it also supported Dilma Rousseff until her impeachment, it was one of the closest allies of the Bolsonaro government.
