The Bund Freiheitlicher Landwirte is a group of farmers and landlords, who are trying to bring back quality food and goods for Rheinland inhabitants by forcing all importers to leave Rheinland territory, drop their cargo or getting destroyed. The BFL doesn't want to have imported goods and stuff around everywhere as other houses don't deliver high quality products. Synth Food is one of the main organizations they are fighting against. Many of those man own farms and are producing quality goods on the highest levels, but due to the influence of big trading companies they have a hard time selling their products. They believe that the import has to be reduce very strictly to power up Rheinlands own economy, to ensure people get safe and great products to eat and drink.

BFL members are often seen fighting against all kind of transports who are delivering goods from foreign house like gin or meat from Bretonia for example. They are not only trying to force Synth Food from planet Stuttgart, but also wants to take over parts of planet Baden-Baden to use the planets fields for food production, as wellness oasis but also as their base of operation. If necessary they would force Orbital Spa & Cruise completely from the planet due to their very patriotic way to handle things. The better way would be an agreement with OS&C and the BFL's leaders already got several ideas to accomplish that.
The BFL believes in the quality of products produced in Rheinland by its local farmers. They don't fight against Rheinland lawfuls and retreat if they are asked to, but if they are engaged by lawfuls they will defend themselves. Their pilots also support Order ships, but only against Nomads and Wilde as they are a direct threat to all inhabitants of Rheinland.

They also want to get rid of drug dealers as well. Due to their patriotism which is far more conservative than the LWB's, but they like to work with them as well as with the Farmers Alliance. So far the LWB's Very Heavy Fighter 'Sichel' and Bomber 'Sense' are mainly used by BFL pilots.

Late in 822 A.S. some farmers from all over Rheinland met to discuss market prices and talk about the current economy. During this meeting many participants mentioned that their sales figures are shrinking due to giant imports from other houses. During this event the participants split up into two groups and the more patriotic BFL got born a few days later. From this day on the members began to buy combat ships and even pirate cruisers to fight the problem they were facing. Some of them became 'full time' members as they gave their farm to their children or other members who were supporting them with cash in return.

Times got even harder for the Bund Freiheitlicher Landwirte, but thanks to the growing imports and influence from foreign nations more and more people joined them. As they grew in number they had to get a higher income to buy more weapons and ships they begun to pirate all kind of transports from all over Sirius. The leadership of the BFL also changed in 823 A.S. as the old bosses went into retirement and back to their farms. The new high command also began working way more aggressive especially against Liberty corporations, importers and companies like Interspace Commerce.

Ranking Structure

The BFL keeps this very simple and without much ranks as they are simply not important to them. They also elect their Landgrafen, but the Reichsgrafen/Reichsgräfinen are not elected, only if one of them is killed or retires. Their other members are simply referred as 'Junker'.
