A People's Republic is a title used by certain republican states. Initially associated with populism (Right-wing populism, people's movements: Völkisch movement, Narodnik, others), it eventually became associated with countries adhering to communism after the creation of the Soviet Union, such as China. However, the term is not unique to communist states. Many countries adopted the title given its rather generic nature, like Bangladesh, which was founded as a liberal parliamentary republic after a popular war of independence.
