Editing Union of Russia

The '''Union of Russia''', sometimes abbreviated as the U.R, was a state in Western Russia from 2035 after the collapse of the Russian Federation until the [[3rd Russian Revolution|Third Russian Revolution]] in 2085. A communal fascist regime that imposed both communist and fascist elements, being socially conservative and totalitarian with economic leftism, the U.R was a member of the Intermarium and participated in the invasion of Belarus and the [[World war III|Third World War]]. Competing against the [[Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic]] and [[Republic of Russia]] to reunite the country after the Federation's collapse, U.R's incompetence at war and statesmanship proved to lead to his earlier downfall despite his far stronger industrial footing.

= Personality =
Despite his apparent strength and large army size, the main character attribute that can be given to the Union of Russia is that he was quite frankly very stupid, having proved his military incompetence in the [[Great Ural War]], being reliant on Polish aid to fight the similarly populated and less industrialized [[Republic of Russia]], and also failing to consolidate the power of the Communal Fascists which led to his collapse during the [[3rd Russian Revolution|Third Russian Revolution]]. The Anocratic Rationalists that took power also completely failed at appeasing the other political factions which led to their revolt.

= Political Factionalism =

=== Communal Fascists ===
The ruling power in the Union for almost all of its existence, the Communal Fascists ideology was a mix of conservative Communism and Fascism, with conservative totalitarian governance and economically socialist policies, with a state controlled market and outlawed private enterprise. 

=== Anocratic Rationalists ===
After the leader of the Communal Fascists was shot and killed in a riot in 2085, the Rationalists would largely seize power over the country, instating an anocratic rationalist coalition government, but their policies aren't very well known. What is known is that they pursued more capitalistic economics then the Communal Fascists due to [[Rationalism|Rationalism's]] Keynesian economics. The Anocratic Rationalists tried to instate a freer market and re-legalize private enterprise, which led to the Conservative Socialist movement to rebel. They also tried to kick out the Polish government-in-exile and peace out with Germany, leading to his army turning against him and him having to fight Idel-Ural and Poland's army.

=== Conservative Socialists ===
The Conservative Socialists were significant in the communist elements of the nation. When the Anocratic Rationalists attempted to institute capitalist policies, the Conservative Socialists revolted as the Russian Commune, a puppet state of the [[Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic|RSFSR]]. Currently, he is the faction in control of Moscow, as the military of the UR revolted when the Anocratic Rationalists attempted to send them to deal with the socialists.

=== Post-Leftists ===

The [[Post-Russia|Post-Leftists]] briefly rebelled during the [[3rd Russian Revolution|Third Russian Revolution]], but his morale was extremely weak and he was hastily taken out.

=== Military ===
The military is fairly self-explanatory. When the Anocratic Rationalists tried to peace out with Germany, the military revolted, with support from the Poles that the Anocratic Rationalists were trying to kick out, alongside Idel-Ural and the Republic of Russia. Presumably, when and if the civil war comes to an end, he will unite with the Republic of Russia. If the war will end soon however is unknown.

= History =

=== Early Days ===

==== Establishment ====
The U.R formed out of a Rationalist rebellion in the west of the Russian Federation during the last days of WW2.5. After the war ended, a brief peace occurred, but this peace did not last very long. 

==== First Ural War ====
Soon after the establishment of the new Russian splinter-states, the Union of Russia declared war on all of the Ural countries at once alongside the Republic of Russia- Something that would lead most of the Uralic states to create the Federal Trade Union of The Urals, a trade alliance between [[Chuvashia]], [[Bashkortostan]], the [[Ural Republic]], [[Udmurtia]] and the Ural Republic's puppet state of Kirov. The war didn't see much movement and everyone agreed to peace relatively quickly. Shortly afterwards, the Republic of Russia invaded and annexed the Ural Republic, while Kirov temporarily received proper independence as a result. 

==== Invasion of Belarus and accession to the Intermarium ====
Following the collapse of the [[4th Reich|Fourth Reich]] and the satanists seizing power in Germany, Poland invaded Belarus, and the Union of Russia also joined this invasion to seize eastern Belarus and secure economic aid from the Intermarium. Despite his entry into the alliance, UR didn't really care about the threat posed by Germany, something that showed itself when the rationalists attempted to make peace with the Germans when they came into power.

=== Following Wars ===

==== Invasion of the Baltic Pact ====
As the Intermarium found itself in a cold war for influence in Europe against the [[Fifth Reich of Deutschland (AFOE: Collapse)|Germans]], the Union of Russia alongside his eastern allies in Poland and Hungary launched an invasion of Livonia, Ingria, and Novgorod. The war initially went very well, with [[Novgorod]] even switching sides in order to keep himself alive and rebelling from his puppet masters in Livonia and Ingria. Finland tried to help the Baltic Pact, but soon found himself collapsing and being invaded by Scandinavia. Ingria also quickly fell, with most of mainland Livonia falling, when Livonia unexplainably pushed the Intermarium back in Latvia. It was revealed that in order to stay alive, Livonia had decided to submit to German influence and become a puppet state. Nonetheless, most of mainland Estonia along with Ingria including St Petersburg was annexed. 

==== Great Ural War ====

==== Demise in World War III and Third Russian Revolution ====
''See more: [[3rd Russian Revolution]]''

The Union of Russia fought against [[Fifth Reich of Deutschland (AFOE: Collapse)|Germany]] in World War III, and as Poland lost his country his government and industry was sent into exile operating in the UR city of Ryazan, while the Polish industry was moved to the Volga River. However, as [[Fifth Reich of Deutschland (AFOE: Collapse)|Germany]] began to push into Russia proper, the UR tried to propose nukes, and when Poland refused it claiming that it would have gone against France's wishes, the UR collapsed and the [[3rd Russian Revolution|Third Russian Revolution]] began.
