After the creation of the Soviet Space Program in 1922, which was replaced after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 by the Rsusian Space Program in 1992, in 2180 the Russian Federation began another "Space Race" with the US and China, the 3 nations, with the US in the lead, attempted to terraform and colonize planets in the Solar System and in other Solar Systems, the US, establish well over 47 colonies, the Russian Federation came in 2nd with 30, and the PRC only took 3, due to a new civil war in 2257 attempting to replace the Chinese' Communist government with a Capitalist one, after the race, which the US clearly won, the Russian Federation decided to cease construction, what with a new war in Caucasus Mountains between Armenia, Georgia, Turkey & Nagorno-Karabakh against Russia, Azerbaijan, South Ossetia, Abkhazia & Iran, Also known as the Caucasus War(2843-2847) , Russia had to divert it's resources, what with NATO assisting Turkey, and the major naval battle in the Black Sea between the Turkish and Georgian navies and the Russian navy. The colonies soon found out, while managing themselves, that they could work better then that of Russia, when the war ended with a tie, the colonies declare independence in May, 21st, 2847, a month after the war had ended. The Russian Federation gladly accepted their independence due to the cost of resources that needed to be sent to the colonies and all.
