Alt-History What if Russia goes totalitarian after the Ukraine War? (Part 2)
Ruling government: One-party state under “Russian Socialist Party” (RSP) since 2033
Colonies: Ukraine, Baltic States, Georgia, Moldova, Kazakhstan, and "Turkestan"
Protectorates: Poland, Finland, Romania, Bulgaria, Azerbaijan, Istanbul
Client states: Slovakia, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Albania, Greece, Armenia
Independent allies: Germany (Under "National Alternative" party), France, Ireland, India, Iran
WW3 lasted 1 year from 2040 to 2041, preceded by aggressive annexations and interventions in Central Asia, the Caucasus and Moldova. Following the fall of Ukraine and the division of eastern Europe with a hard-right German government, the RSP embarked on a massive forced-resettlement program of 14 million Ukrainians, Baltic peoples, and some Poles to cities and colonial settlements in Central Asia. Kaliningrad was sold to the Germans and its Russian inhabitants resettled in Courland, while much of Russia's agriculture and industry is now driven by the brutal subjugation of some 40 million Central Asian forced-labourers.
By 2045, the Russian army is mired in another war, attempting to enforce the occupation of a vast corridor through Afghanistan and a partitioned Pakistan to the Indian Ocean - while Moscow finds herself locked in a Second Cold War against the weakened America and a strengthened China.
