Independent Republic of Crimea

Independent Republic of Crimea (Russian: Независимая Республика Крым, romanized: Nezavisimaya Respublika Krym) or simply known as Crimea is an independent country situated in the northern Black Sea, in what used to be a part of Russia.
Crimea stands as a turbulent remnant of the old Russian Federation, distinct from the current Russian state. Bordered by the Nationalist League of Bohdan and the Governorship of Enerhodar to the north, Crimea is a country fraught with internal strife and external threats. The state is torn by civil war, with the government battling the Crimean Tatars and the Spetsnaz Forces. To make matters worse, Crimea is at war with the Bohdan League
== The Beginnings ==
Following the catastrophic collapse of the Russian Federation, Crimea found itself in chaos. The region, occupied by Russian forces since 2014, was cut off from its main support. In a desperate bid to maintain control, the Crimean authorities declared a state of emergency and martial law. As Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars banded together to resist, the situation grew increasingly dire.
Through brutal suppression, the Russian-controlled government eventually quashed the Ukrainian uprisings. In Simferopol, a peace treaty was reluctantly signed with the Crimean Tatars, granting them autonomy. Meanwhile, remaining Ukrainians were forced into exile in the north. This allowed the Crimean government to consolidate power, stabilize the economy, and focus on bolstering the Russian Black Sea Fleet against the emerging Turkish Merchants
== The Clash ==
The fragile peace between the Turkish Merchants and the Russian Navy was shattered when in 12th October of 2085 the Crimean Fleet accidentally clashed with the Istanbul Fleet. In retaliation, the Government of Istanbul closed the Turkish Straits, a vital trade route for Crimea. The blockade triggered an economic collapse, with the Russian currency in freefall and widespread panic across the region. The government was split between hawks, who wanted to go to war with Istanbul, and doves, who advocated for negotiations.
Amidst this political turmoil, the Russian Black Sea Fleet, acting without government orders, attacked Istanbul. They sank five Turkish vessels and several civilian merchant ships. The Crimean government, though not involved in the decision, celebrated the attack, but the Istanbul Government not wanting to back down, would decide in initiating a Counter-attack during November 12th 2085, sending its Fleet in an attempt to shoot down the Black Fleet, Despite failing to inflict a damage against the Black Sea Fleet, this would begin a long war between the Istanbul Government and the Crimeans
Throughout the prolonged conflict there were no land battles with the focus shifting to intense naval confrontations. The powerful navies of two opposing forces clashed repeatedly in a bid to secure dominance, at sea. Despite their efforts a deadlock persisted and it was not, until the Battle of Zmiinyi that a major engagement took place. In this battle despite attempts to fend off the Turks the island was eventually lost following an Istanbul Romanian alliances capture of the location. The Black Sea Fleet suffered a defeat and humiliation during this conflict culminating in the sack of Sevastopol and compelling the Crimeans to surrender after the economic downturn Became Unbearable for the Local Russians in the Area.
== Chaos in the Government ==
