The **2075 Russian Revolution**, also known as the '**75 Russian Revolution**, '**75 White Uprising**, or the **Battle for Liberation** (*Chinese (simplified):* **争斗为解放**, *Japanese:* **解放のための戦い**), was a period of unrest, terrorism, and revolutionary activity in Russia with the aims of an independent Russia from the Commonwealth of European States.
