Russian Federation

The Russian Federation (Romanized Russian: Rossiyskaya Federatsiya), sometimes referred to as the Petersburg's Russia (Russian: Петербургская Россия) to differentiate from the Isolated Russian Federation in Kamchatka Peninsula, is the remnant continuation of the pre-war Russian government.
==History==
After the chaotic aftermath of World War 3, remnants of the Russian Government in St. Petersburg hiden in personal bunkers and in shelters made in Order of Lenin Leningrad Metro would witness as the world would be set ablaze while the Russian population being the targets of multiple nuclear warheads and other types of munitions, even those trapped in the bunkers would still feel the sentiment of revanchism., however with the world now suffocating into nuclear winter, there wasn't much they could do. 
After almost one hundred years after mankind's last war, the people of Saint Petersburg risen up with hopes trapped within the bunkers which would serve to reestablish the most legitimate sucessor to the Russian Federation. Sharing ideas of pluralistic democracy and extensive political rights for its people to prevent the events committed by the last government.
Nevertheless, Russia is starting to rebuild despite the great depression suffered by its people in the past century, there is still new hope for the Russian population in the newly established federation. Will dangerous ideas thrive again to oppress the Russian people, or will the democracy established in a post-apocalyptic world save them from disaster? Only time will tell.
Uraaa!

===Recent Developments:===
In 2121 AD, Red Marshall Kolvachur formed the 1st NWD (Northwestern Workers Division) to consolidate power in Velikye Luki with the goal of raising the red flag over the Winter Palace and declaring a new Red Russia. Seeking support, Russia pledged aid from the GMRDs. However, during the Battle of Gatchina against the 2nd GMRD, the communists were defeated by a vastly superior Russian Army. Kolvachur retreated desperately, leading to casualties as many drowned while crossing the Neva River. Eventually, Kolvachur and 9,000 soldiers reached the Finnish border, where mutual agreements allowed them to cross the border.
However, Russia couldn't catch a breath as revolutions erupted across Karelia, Kola, and Leningrad Oblast, inspired by the 1st NWD. Mainly composed of proletariat from the south and farmers from the north, they organized themselves into brigades and initiated a multinational guerrilla warfare campaign along the Kirov railway, causing it to collapse temporarily and posing a new threat to Russia. They would call themselves the 2nd NWD.
==Politics==
===Political System: The Torch over Russia;===
The newly established federation vows to establish democracy throughout Russia, a dream long-awaited by the Russian people but often thwarted by multiple failures with the rise of authoritarian regimes that hindered freedom of speech. Currently, the new federation aims to push democracy to its limits and guarantee freedom of conscience and rights for the Russian people. The Duma represents the people, and the Council of the Federation represents the upper house, which is composed of politicians voted in by the Duma, thus involving an indirect voting process to become a senator in Russia. Nevertheless, the people of Russia are free to speak, free to vote, and full of rights.

==Economy==
===The Great Land Lords:===
During the first days of the establishment of the federation, a group of gentry and landlords formed the first political faction in Russia. They called themselves the "Great Lords of Northwestern Russia," monopolizing a significant portion of Russian arable lands, industry and the Kirov Railway. They used their power to directly interfere in government politics, shaping it towards landlordism by funding conservative parties and sympathizers. 
===The Pearl of a New Russia, Saint Petersburg:===
The Russian Federation plays a crucial role in the Baltic Sea trade routes, importing raw materials vital to its industries from Sweden. These materials are then transformed into industrial goods and transported via the Kirov railway towards Murmansk. Many nations along the railway lack significant mineral supplies and industries necessary to meet their basic internal demands making the route profitable and of interest for many of its residents. However, there are significant disputes and piracy in the Baltic Sea, with many of the routes being more expensive than they should be. Even worse, some of them are simply being sunk by pirates or seized by another nation's navy.
Luckily for the Federation, in the far north, the city of Murmansk holds access to the important mineral basins of Norway and local phosphate production. These resources can be sent down to Saint Petersburg and substitute imports from Scandinavia, which in times of war could be too dangerous or too disputed to be imported
===The Finnish Menace:===
The Federation also faces encroachment on its access routes by Finnish and Estonian warlords who, in case of war, will likely move to block the trade route, potentially plunging the Kirov railway into a temporary economic collapse.
==Culture==
The culture of the Russian Federation is Metropolitan Russian, centered around Saint Petersburg. It's formed by a blend of all the cultures of the Northwestern region due to constant influxes of refugees and immigrants. Despite this, they still use the Cyrillic alphabet and adhere to the Russian grammar of 2024.
==Bonuses==
Russian Federation gets a +1 agaisnt even Northwestern Russian Warlord in 2230, if all their political and corruption problems are fixed.
