Union-Siberia, officially the Union-Siberian Socialist Monarchy is a nation on North Laurentia and a member state of the Almaty Pact. It is bordered by Timiskrane to the south and the Arctic Ocean on the north, east and west. It's capital city of Vladirostok is also its most populous if the capital island Roko is included. Kerrograd has the largest industrial area. The official language of government is Russian, though the government does recognize and award special minority language status to traditional languages native to the region. The country terrain is filled with mountain ranges and islands, mostly mountains, and the soil is generally soft and slightly fertile, the exception several island clusters in the USSM Exclusive Bay Zone, whose soil is acidic and rocky.

The USSM was once a part of a former colony of Locotimia by the name of Angrosia which fell into anarchy following Timiskrane's independence. There had previously been external attempts to unify and govern the region, but most met with failure do to the difficult geography that made it difficult to maintain unity. It is unknown how the USSM came into fruition during the small archipelago's time in anarchy, but it has to do with the emperor's father, whose stories have confused outside viewers to a large extent.

It currently stands as a hermit kingdom, self-sufficient on nearly all aspects, though a significant arms manufacturing and a unwanted tourism industry has begun to develop. The nation claims to run on a system called Socialist Monarchism, when actually it seems to run on a modern parliamentary system, with the Siberian Royal Crown acting as the parliament and the emperor acting as the 'figurehead', though holding a lot more power than usual.

Media

The Union has several broadcasters, the most prominent being Channel One and Union Daily, it is a fairly recent invention, and due to the county's largely lawless and anarchist history, it does also have a strong tradition of uncensored autonomous private media. Channel One alone operates 8 radio stations, 2 TV channels and the Union Daily operates printed newspaper, which are all provided to the Union public free of charge. There are otherwise about 3 minor private broadcasting companies operating radio and TV across the countries, but only 1 major private newspaper.

Holidays

In addition to celebrating a quarter of the traditional Locotimian holidays, Union statutory holidays include: Independence Day, officially on the seventeenth of August, [lore does not exist yet]. the USSM also typically observes, but is not given holidays for: Mother's Day, Father's Day, World Environment Day and Literacy Day. A few holidays though are banned by result of referendums, one such holiday is [lore not made yet]

Sports

Union-Siberia's official sport is [lore not made yet]

Military

The Union spends approximately 25% of it's governmental revenue on the The Siberian Royal Military. The desire for the Union to have a large military is still largely fueled by fear of encroachment a need to internationally assert it's sovereignty. All Unionist youth are required at 18 to spend 20 months in the military. The requirements set out for the military are as follows:

  1. The person exists

The military screens all youth for their physical fitness and mental health, afterwards assigning them their placement. Persons who have severe mental or physical disabilities are not exempt for service.

Small Arms

Model Origin Type Caliber Notes
Hi-Punch 12.7 Kursibar Pistol 12.7x33 Black Market Kursibari sidearms, primarily used by army officers
Rockwell Self-Deffence Sidearm Oktadonia Pistol 10x25 Modern sidearms used by certain police departments and special units
Sea Bolt Fleet of Oceans Bolt-Action Rifle 5.56x39 Fleetian bolt-action used by militias prior to the Act of Federation, grandfathered in
Tekka Rifles Forester Triple Shot Timiskrane Bolt-Action Rifle 5.56x45 Used by local militias prior to the Act of Federation, being phased out in favour of TC-1
Tekka Rifles TC-1 Timiskrane Carbine 5.56x45 Replacing the bolt action rifles previously used by Timiskrane military and militias. Though they had no previous experience in full automatic weapons, the benefit of the Tekka proposal was it's usage of the same cartridge as the old bolt actions, and many of the same parts, allowing for old surplus to be recycled. Has a progressive trigger allowing it to be fired as a semi-automatic by lightly depressing the trigger, or fully automatic by pulling it all the way back.
Tekka Rifles & ELTIM TSR-1 Timiskrane Sniper Rifle 7.62x35 Tekka and ELTIM collaborative proposal, with ELTIM designing the scope and other peripherals while Tekka designed the core of the weapon itself. It was the favoured choice due to it's usage of smaller 35mm rounds, allowing for more capacity, as well as it being better designed to resist and perform in harsh climates, which Timiskrane has many of.
Devtek TSM-1 Timiskrane Submachine Gun 10x25 TDF requested a submachine gun to be used by special forces, special police units, and as a personal defence weapon. The winning bid came from Devtek, a company more so known for making industrial equipment, but they have ventured into firearms before, and their capacity to produce a large amount at low cost, as well as the proposed units being lightweight and compact, won them the bid.
Fleet Machine Gun Fleet of Oceans Machine Gun 7.62x35 Heavy machine gun on a bipod
Dynamo & Tekka Rifles TGL-1 Timiskrane Grenade Launcher 40mm Grenade Dynamo is a subsidiary of Dynamic Earth, the launcher was designed with assistance from Tekka.
Dynamo THG-1 Timiskrane Hand Grenade Hand grenades made by Dynamic Earth's explosives department under the name Dynamo
Godhead Armaments WP Cloudmaster Kursibar Smoke Grenade White Phosphorous smoke grenades, being phased out due to a tendency to 'flame out'
Pressure Detonated Device Nibelia Anti-Personnel Mine   Have never been used, an unknown amount have been acquired and are in inventory
Nibelia Advanced Bazooka Nibelia Recoilless Rifle 60mm Portable shoulder mounted recoilless rifle
Devtek TR-1 Timiskrane Anti-Tank Guided or Unguided Rockets Guided rocket launcher on a tripod designed for anti-tank use. Range approximately 2km and reloads in 20 seconds.
