The Imperial Socialist Republic of TheRussianFederation is a large, safe nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its intelligent population are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The national animal is the fox and its currency is the ruble.

The Formation of TheRussianFederation

The Federation is born out of the ashes of the old TheNeoRomanEmpire. It seems that in the last years of it's life, the Empire begins to lose it's control over the people due to their distrust with NeoCaesar Romulis Augustus. It is through this distrust that the NeoRoman Civil war begins, pinning loyalists against revolutionists looking to take the nation back to it's ancestral Russian heritage. After a long and bloody war the revolutionists win the war.
