The Order of Soviet Socialist Republics (Vysokaya Rech': Orden Sovetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik), more commonly referred to as the Soviet Order is a federal one party socialist state located in northern Omand in Annwynn. It is comprised of five constituent states; the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic, Ekspander Soviet Socialist Republic, Ploskoye Soviet Socialist Republic and lastly, the Adoyeva Soviet Socialist Republic. It is bordered to the south by Rusyn, Lethia and Čechy. To the east, it is bordered by Gratislavia, with which is also shares a maritime border. Other maritime boundaries are shared to the south with Aesti and Krasno. Lastly, the OSSR shares a maritime border with the Republic of Licana via its occupation of the Otdalennyy Island to the west and Ostrov Island in the east, which is also claimed by the nation of Gratislavia. The government of Transnapastain does not, however, recognize the legitimacy of the Licanan claims and occupation of either island, nor Gratislavia's claim to sovereignty and considers each territory to be under their control. Further, following the Omandan Continental War, and Transnapastain's occupation of nearly the entire continent, it claims de jure control over all territory south to the Strada Crossing, a narrow land bridge connecting north and south Omand
The Soviet Order is nominally a union of multiple national republics; but in practice its government and economy is highly centralized. The Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic is the leading nation of the Order of Soviet Socialist Republics and is considered to be the "first among equals" of the organization, internationally recognized as the leader of the OSSR. Since the end of the Omandan Continental War in 1994, the majority of the world considers the OSSR to be a defunct organization.
Despite its suffering heavily in a strategic nuclear exchange between itself, the Republic of Licana, and the Harmonious Realm of Shiangzhuo, the Soviet Order has retained control of vast swaths of territory and has generally stabilized itself internally following the catastrophe. Although very little hard data is available, world experts believe that the OSSR has have largely recovered from the destruction brought upon it during the war, and has restored itself to some level of self-sufficiency, although has not achieved any level of ability to exercise its power beyond its territory.
Modernly, its international borders remain closed to most travelers, and it participates in no international organizations, with almost every nation in the world either refusing to recognize its sovereignty or acknowledge its the legitimacy of its government. Although most nations have placed severe trade sanctions and embargos upon the OSSR, it trades internationally with several partners, including Ostlichtor, Abrahar and the Copperhead Republic. In general, due to its utterly devastated economy and complete devaluation of its currency, The OSSR trades in raw materials and some finished goods, including and most commonly armaments, for either hard currency or other finished goods needed for its population. The Republic of Licana, assisted nominally by several nation's who participated in the Omandan Continental War, maintain a military blockade of the Soviet Order's territory in an attempt to both stop exports of weapons to other nations, as well as prevent any armed Soviet military forces from departing from its territory. In the last decade, the severity of the blockade has decreased, and more and more shipments have been allowed into and out of Soviet territory.
History
The Treaty of Ozery was signed in 1897 and established the Soivet Order comprised of the former members of the Transnapastaini Confederacy. Signatories included the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic, Ploskoye Soviet Socialist Republic and Adoyeva Soviet Socialist Republic. The Ekspander Soviet Socialist Republic was the last to sign the Treaty, doing so in 1902 after a brief conflict with the OSSR. The OSSR is, nominally, a union of multiple national republics but in practice its government and economy is highly centralized and utterly dominated by the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic, governed by the Communist Party of the Soviet Order, with Tayno as its capital in its largest republic, the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic. At its height in 1971, the OSSR consisted of over a dozen republics, although only Gratislavia was integrated directly into the Soviet Order after its invasion in 1939. Other nation's attacked and occupied by the Soviet Order during the Omandan Continental War were bound to it by alliance and the installation of puppet regimes, and were not directly integrated into the union.
In 1931 the Soviet Order invaded Gratislavia, incorporating it into the OSSR. Between 1939 and 1966, Soviet Order forces invaded and occupied the entirety of northern Omand. Crossing the Strada Crossing in 1969, they initiated the invasion of Notreceau and southern Omand. By 1971, they had completed the conquest of Notreceau and, in 1972, Soviet forces breached the Ultima Castellum and invaded Luminerra. In 1973 the Republic of Licana agreed to assist Luminerra in its fight against the OSSR and its allied states, a fight it was steadily losing. The first Licanan forces arrived in 1973 and, by 1982, the Soviet Order forces had been pushed back to Strada Crossing. Allied forces were able to force their way across in 1985 and continued the advanced towards the Transnapastaini homeland.
The war ended in December of 1993 when the Soviet Order initiated a strategic nuclear exchange with Licana, which responded in kind along with several other allied nations and the Harmonious Realm of Shiangzhuo. The resulting devastation forced the Soviet Order forces to retreat into the core territories of the OSSR, while the allied forces determined it would be costly, and ultimately unnecessary, to continue the advance into the enemy's homeland. No formal treaty was signed ending the war and thus, it continues in theory to this day. In fact, the Soviet's ability to conduct combat operations had been severely limited, if not eliminated entirely, and thus the war was a victory for allied forces. Despite this victory, the war was extremely costly in both men and material, resulting in (a fuckton) of military casualties for the allied forces, an unknown amount for Soviet forces, though estimates place the number around (a whole lot). In addition, (an appalling amount) of civilian casualties occurred during the war, both during the Soviet occupation of territories as well as through the nuclear exchange between the OSSR and the varies nations fighting against it.
Geography
Government
While many local governance responsibility may fall to various ministries or councils within the constituent states of the Order Of Soviet Socialist Republics, the overall governance of the union is the responsibility of the governing body of the OSSR. Each signatory republic within the OSSR has its own government formed by the legislature of the respective union republic. These local entities are not legally subordinate to the Supreme Soviet of the OSSR, but they were obliged in their activities to be guided by the decrees and decisions of the Supreme Soviet.
The government of the OSSR is divided into the Order Council and the Supreme Soviet, the government of the OSSR is the highest executive, legislative and administrative body of the state and tasked with all state administrative duties in the jurisdiction of the OSSR. The government of the OSSR is responsible for
- Management of the national economy and socio-cultural construction and development including the formulation and submission of economic plans to the Supreme Soviet along with the state budget.
- Defense of the interests of state, socialist property, public order and to protect the rights of all citizens by;
- Ensuring state security
- General policies for the Soviet armed forces and determination of how many citizens will be required for service.
- General policies concerning foreign relations and trade, economic, scientific-technical and cultural cooperation of the OSSR with foreign countries as well as the power to confirm or denounce international treaties signed by the OSSR.
- Creation of necessary organisations within the government concerning economics, socio-cultural development and defense.
The government of the OSSR has the authority to issue decrees and resolutions and later verify their execution. All organizations within the constituent states are obliged to obey the decrees and resolutions issued by the government.
The Central Committee and the Order Committee, collectively known as the Politburo, are the executive body of the OSSR government. According to the Articles of Unity, the Politburo is directed to assume ownership of all party and governmental activities. The Order Committee is comprised of representatives from various government entities include the military, security bureau, and all major industrial sectors, all of whom will report to one or more sitting members of the Central Committee. Members of the Order Committee are appointed by the member of the Central Committee responsible for that persons specific portfolio. For example, the Minister of Agriculture, a member of the Central Committee, would appoint the Minister of Water and Reclamation. They can be dismissed by the member of the central committee holding their portfolio at any time. In the case of a portfolio being held by multiple committee members, the more important portfolio in precedent will have the final decision on appointments and removals. The chairmen of the Politburo and the Central Committee, referred to as the Premier, is the leader of the Order Council. The Premier is nominated by the members of the Central Committee and confirmed by the Supreme Soviet. In practice, the Premier is considered to be the head of government for the Order of the Soviet Socialist Republics. The Deputy Premier serves as the assistant to the Premier and also as the chairman of the Order Committee
The Central Committee is made up of selected members of the Order Committee and are the actual voting members of the committee. These members are appointed from the Order Committee by the Premier and can be dismissed by the Premier at any time.
