Soviet Shiberland (1922 - 1991)

# Socialist Republic of Shiberland (1922 - 1991)

### Early 20th Century (1922 - 1949)

Prior to the USSR's beginning on the 30th of December 1922, Shiberland's (excluding Isle of Doges) had been the little sibling in the Southern Hemisphere to Russia since the beginning of the 20th Century. Thus in 1922, Shiberland allied with the United Socialist States of Russia. Although most believe Shiberland was a state in the USSR, it was not. Shiberland sported the almost identical flag of the USSR from influence at most - "It looked good" (Cheemethy Smoothill 1923). In the Second World War, Shiberland was on the Allies side of war due to it's alliance with Russia. When Russia attacked a country, Shiberland followed.

### Mid-Late 20th Century (1950 - 1991)

During the 1950s and 60s Shiberland took apart in the Vietnam War in support of: Soviet Union, China, North Vietnam; however it was noted that the Shiberland did not get along with North Korea. They shot each other whenever they'd cross paths. An unknown Australian Soldier in 1971 stated, "I thought they were confused to who they were shooting at, turns out they were killing each other." An American soldier in 1968 recorded various shootouts they'd have from afar, "...Craziest shit I'd have seen all this time man. One minute they'd be shooting at me, next they be shooting at them Shibes." He'd smoke a cigar "At least they ain't gone turning us into pickle mashes now ain't they."

In the 1970s, Shiberland was in debt, massively. Due to the Vietnam War, Shiberland had more casualties compared to their 'role-model' Russia. Therefore, in an attempt to plead the Soviet Union into paying them for their 'loyalty to the communist regime', Shiberland invaded Isle of Doges multiple times until they fed up and surrendered to Shiberland (this took place in 1978). Late 1979, Walter Volkov - leader of Shiberland (1969 - 1979) was assassinated by Scoobert Vitaly, an Isle of Dogeish protester whom was later publicly hanged in Sobaka (former capital city of Isle of Doges). Cheems Krasnaya was elected the new leader of Shiberland in Summer of 1979 (Southern Hemisphere Summer).

Cheems Krasnaya was deemed an impeccable leader to Shiberland, supposedly the most famed in Shiberland history. He also got along Prime Minister of Australia, New Zealand and Russia in the early 1980s. Later however, Cheems had gone vaguely insane throughout the 1980s. He would attack Dogestan in 1984. A week into the Shibe-Doge War in the borderline of Dogestan faced horrid casualties of over 102,000. Dogestan was pissed, eventually bombing the Skeet Harbour, the coastline of Scoobscell. Dogestan and Shiberland would fight both guerrilla warfare and outdated trench warfare - airbound and maritime. Dogeland would later support Dogestan when S.O.S signals were sounded in 1987 when Shiberland successfully invaded almost half of the country of Dogestan and had major collateral damage and casualties. In 1991 the leader Cheems Krasnaya had become completely mentally unstable and had been assassinated.

The Socialist government in Shiberland collapsed on the 5th of October 1991.

## Russo-Shibish Deteriorating Relations

During the dissolution of the Soviet Union (1988 - 1991), Soviet/Russo-Shibe relations deteriorated along with it.

In 1989, Russia essentially betrayed Shiberland during the Shibe-Doge War, with the refusal to supply Shibish armies and militias with ammunition and aid; disregarding the Soviet-Shibeish Peace Treaty (1922), and the Shibarean Pact.

When Soviet forces eventually deployed into Shiberland to attack Dogestan and suppress the Isle of Doges, there were many cases of war crimes caused by Byelorussian and Kazakh forces; against the Shibish people. This also included looting, and terrible relationships with Shibish soldiers throughout the end of the Shibe-Doge Wars.

Following Dogestanian-allied victory in the Shibe-Doge wars - without the military help of Russia, and other USSR states, Shiberland withdrew allegience of Russia and other Socialist States; Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, etc...

Shiberland later joined the Dogeandicate-Oceanian Union (D.O.U) following the collapse of the Socialist Federal state of Shiberland.

Isle of Doges still remains a state of Shiberland (Until 2022)

Shiberland sports a new flag, still the Shibe symbol but in the middle of the flag, colours copy the Russian flag but sideways.
