The Government of the National Front of Madiun (Indonesian: Front Pemerintah Nasional Daerah Madiun; Dutch: Madiun Nationale Frontregering) was a revolutionary government established in Madiun by the People's Democratic Front group on 18 September 1948 after the capture of Madiun city. Soepardi was appointed by FDR officers Wikana and Setyadjit Soegondo as head of the revolutionary government in the National Front Committee. This government ended when the military units of the Siliwangi Division on 1 October 1948 recaptured the Madiun region.
It was intended to replace the Republic of Indonesia to become the nominal and representative government of Indonesia under the official name Soviet Republic of Indonesia (Indonesian: Soviet Republik Indonesia), inheriting all properties, rights, obligations and sovereignty representation of the Republic of Indonesia during the peak of the Madiun Affair. However due to the small scale of the rebellion, it is commonly known as the Madiun Soviet State (Indonesia: Negara Soviet Madiun).
