Constanza Noguera is the Mayor of Azaladshu Free, an independent minor faction based in the Azaladshu system that was originally a member of the Federation. Noguera was elected in June 3307 on a wave of public discontent within the Federation that followed the passage of the Domestic Counter-Terrorism Act and the implementation of the Proactive Detection Bureau. The Mayor promptly declared Azaladshu Free's independence from the Federation on June 29, 3307. The move not only meant the withdrawal of Azaladshu from the Federal Accord, but also the withdrawal of three other systems that were under the faction's control at the time: LFT 824, LHS 277, and LTT 3919. Federal Congress and President Zachary Hudson considered the withdrawal illegal because it was not approved by a referendum held among Azaladshu Free's constituents as required by Federal law.
Mayor Noguera's secession bid instigated a conflict in Azaladshu between her faction and the Federal loyalist faction Neche Inc on July 1, 3307, with the outcome to determine not only Azaladshu Free's independence, but whether three other Federal factions who were also opposed to the recent heavy-handed surveillance measures would choose to secede as well.

The faction strenuously opposes government monitoring of Federal citizens' private communications. Three other Federal factions are on the verge of declaring independence: Coalition of Uteran, Lp 726-6 Free and Gluscap Labour.
