The Russian State (Russian: Государство Россійское, romanized: Rosijskoye Gosudarstvo) is a constitutional monarchy consisting of territories in North America, East Asia, and Southeastern Europe. In America it borders Canada, in Asia it borders Republic of China, the Mongolian People's Republic, the Far Eastern Republic, and the Korean and Japanese Empires, in Europe it borders Turkey, Greece, and Bulgaria.

History
History of Russia

The Russian State was proclaimed at the Khabarovsk State Conference on August 16, 1919, with the "On the Establishment of All-Russian Supreme Government" act. This act was signed in the name of "restoration of State Unity and Independence of Russia" which was suffering from the revolution of 1917, the establishment of a Soviet-led government, and the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk by said government.

The following tasks were identified as urgent tasks for restoring state unity and independence of Russia: • The struggle for the liberation of Russia from Soviet power; • The reclamation of the conquered, scattered, and separatist regions of Russia; • The non-recognition of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk and all other treaties of an international character, concluded both on behalf of Russia and its separate parts after the February Revolution, by any authority other than the Russian Provisional Government, and the restoration of the actual strength of the treaty relations with the Entente powers; • The federalization of the Russian State as the key feature of restoration.

Later, the new All-Russian Duma and the newly elected monarch moved from Khabaroffsk to New Arkhangel in Russian America and proclaimed it the capital of the Russian State.

In Russian Alaska, the government has launched its "Great Modernization" program. Having attracted American and Canadian investors, the authorities decided to continue the previously private initiative to build a railway to unite all-important regional centres. The construction of railways is still going on, creating a lot of jobs for both locals and migrants. Along with the railways, the government is also developing a merchant flotilla to deliver its products to the Primorskaya Governorate and allied nations.

Since 1925, the authorities have taken an interest in aircraft, building the first test airports between Chenoa and Nulato. By 1930, five private companies planned to expand the number of civilian airports while the authorities considered a program to create their own "aerofleet" - the Air Force.

Primorskaya Governorate
Primorskaya Governorate was organized in 1921 during the restructuring of the lands of the Russian State from the territories of the former Amur, Zakitayskaya, Primorskaya, and Sakhalin Oblasts. In 1925, the Amur Cossack Army was reformed into a branch of the Knights Hospitalier, and placed in two autonomous Hosts on the border with the Far Eastern Soviet Republic and China.

Adhering to the modernization program, Primorskaya Governorate encourages foreign investment and local business. Inspired by the Japanese experience, so-called "cooperatives", large corporate conglomerates and holdings, were created in the regions which by 1930 were divided along national lines and occupied certain regions, building and sponsoring local activities.

Tsargrad Governorate
The Russian State represented the Russian side in the Paris Peace Conference of 1919-1920. Thanks to the previous Treaty of Constantinople of 1915, the Russian state received the Constantinople Mandate and the Caucasus Mandate, as well as the recognition of the territorial integrity of the Russian Empire. Although the mass emigration of the Russian military and civilian population took place almost immediately after the capture of Constantinople by Russian troops, it was legally allowed only after the Paris Peace Conference.

Relations between the Greeks, Italians, and Russians cooled considerably after the Russian State advocated its interests in the Italian-Greek dispute over Turkish territory, and advocated the transformation of Rhodes Island into an independent state of the Knights Hospitalier citing old agreements and the Fourteen Points of Wilson. They also proposed the creation of an "Orthodox pilgrimage zone" in Constantinople, abandoning the joint rule of Palestine in favor of Britain and France, and creating an "Orthodox Jerusalem", which was also supported by Orthodox Panslavists.

Officially, the Russian State supported the Greek occupation of Smyrna, but learning of the anti-Turkish pogroms and the desire of Greek nationalists to capture Constantinople, they began secretly building fortifications in their territory, often with the help of Serbian and Cossack volunteers. When the Turkish-Armenian War broke out in 1920, the Russian State also learned of Soviet Russian sponsorship of Turkish nationalists, forcing it to side with the Greeks and Armenians and involve the United States and Britain in the war (triggering the Chanak Incident). The joint Russian-British forces spent most of this war defending the Armenian border from the 11th Soviet Army and Georgian troops. The US Navy provided almost no significant support.

In 1921, the Greek front collapsed due to a lack of funding and support from the Allies. France and Italy, in turn, began to support Turkish nationalists and withdrew from Turkish lands. The Russian State officially announced an ultimatum and did not intend to withdraw from the territories it considered its own. On September 15, the Constantinople Governorate was proclaimed. An attempt by Turkish troops to capture Constantinople was repelled, and about 1,500 Turkish prisoners of war and civilians were killed by Russian troops, launching a series of anti-Turkish pogroms in the governorate.

Sensing a stalemate and not wanting to escalate the war further, the League of Nations decided to compromise with the nationalist government of Turkey. After lengthy negotiations, the Lausanne Peace Treaty was signed on September 1, 1923, defining the borders of Turkey, Armenia, the Aran SR, and the territorial mandates of the Entente countries, including the Constantinople Governorate. This treaty also defined the rights to use the Bosphorus Strait and the status of Constantinople as a sacred land of Orthodox Christianity.

In 1928, the province officially changed its name to Tsargrad (Russian: Цареградскаѧ Губерніѧ).

Current Day
Compared to Soviet Russia, the Russian State is prospering economically through trade in oil, coal, and control of the Bosphorus and Dardanelles. Economic and administrative reforms are successful and the Russian State has a large number of allies. But the fledgling nation has many other problems, the aforementioned allies, perhaps, being the biggest.

The territories of the Russian State are scattered on three continents and differ from each other in culture, ethnic composition, and even internal problems. The lack of a capable fleet makes the control of all territories difficult (though not impossible). The governorates of the Primorskaya and Tsargrad are also surrounded by enemies and unreliable allies, whose satisfaction requires careful balancing.

Politically, the Russian state is divided between moderate monarchists, ethnic nationalist parties, and a growing movement of right-wing radicals. The last two forces even began to create military wings for their parties. In addition, although the state is officially monarchical, the identity of the incumbent monarch is not known to the general public due to the constant threat of Bolshevik assassination. Some people speculate that the current empress is Olga: the eldest daughter of Nicholas, as the fate of his family and the Romanov dynasty after fleeing from Tsarskoe Selo is carefully hidden, some people believe that there is no emperor at all, and this is just an excuse for the State Council to seize power. which further undermines the confidence of politicians and the population in the current government.

The official language of the Russian State is Russian using the 1910 Petrin script reform. However, due to the war and the spread of reactionary policies among the population, this reform was frozen in the first stage: only the letters "Ѵ", "Ф" and "З" were excluded from the circulation. The letter “Ъ” is still used at the end of words, but its use is sporadic and unregulated, depending solely on the author's political worldview.

National minorities are officially allowed to use and print in their language, as long as they do so in Russian Cyrillic or Japanese scripts, the latter being the only other writing system approved officially by the Council. The printed press of the Tsargrad Governorate slowly shifts to Neo-Ustav.
