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 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:
- 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.

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 |
