The Russian Federation
 * Government: While Putin is beginning to turn Russia into an economic powerhouse, he has neglected the populace and forced them to do what he asks. This causes mass unrest, and it is clear to Putin that if he continues leading, Russia will fall. He tells the Russian people that he is resigning as president, and that his advisors will lead Russia until elections in 2020, which will be every 5 years. He also asks to live in the Russian research station in Antartica as he wishes to live alone in exile. His 5 main advisors decide that it is a terrible idea to have a group of 5, and choose Sergei Ivanov to be the temporary leader of Russia. Ivanov decides to follow Putin's goals but also care for the people. He establishes a Russian Senate, which will be made up of representatives from all the Russian states of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldavia, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. The president will govern some regions directly, such as the Capital Region and South Ossetia. This leads to the Senate having 70 members with the current amount of states, each having 10. The Senate will vote on laws proposed by the president. If the law is accepted by more than half of the Senate (currently 36 needed) it is passed. If there is a tie, the president will pick the side that had the most Russian representative support. Ivanov continues Putin's plans, but begins giving more rights to Russians and protecting them from punishment by corrupt bosses. The states, meanwhile, have their own governments, which are purely executive. The governors of the states are determined by a vote, and the total number of voters in Russia is 98,980,000 people. State governors have to enforce federal laws in their states and control some of the trade to other nations.
 * Research: Again, space research is the only research happening in Russia as the country continues its modernization. The Russian Space Station (RSS)construction is started and by the end of the year the dock and main control rooms are in place. By next year, life support systems and other key parts will be completed, and in 2020 Russia will begin allowing other nations to have access to the RSS. A small moon base is established by a moon mission in March. The base has a small tent to house supplies, a landing area marked, and a rover to drive around. A manned mission for Mars is estimated within 2-3 years.
 * Analytics: Censuses show that Russia under Ivanov is growing even faster due to motivation from the government to work for a better life.
 * Economy: The Russian economy, taking over most of the Baltic trade and a reliable source of oil, grows massively. The total GDP of the nation is 4,206,420,000,000 dollars, and unemployment is only 2.1 percent. Russia's economy is expected to double within 8 years.
 * Infrastructure/Public Services: While Russia proper's onfrastructure is booming, newly conquered territories have damaged road and public transport systems. Efforts are made by Ivanov and state governments begin to rebuild these areas. In Siberia, a 4 line highway system is created and paved roads are planned to connect all towns by 2020. Healthcare is now available for free as the bill is in taxes.
 * Demographics: Russian population is growing mostly through immigration and conquest, and natural growth in 2017 Russian territory, while growing, is still extremely small. Through natural birth Russian population grows by 520,000, by immigration 910,000, and by conquest 9,640,000. This leads to a total growth of 11,070,000 people, and the Russian population in 2018 is 221,020,000 people (forgot Ukraine last turn). Enthnically, Russia is 75% Russian. 9% Tartar, 6% Ukrainian, and 10% other cultures. Religiously, 76% of Russia is non-religious, while the rest are various religions
 * Russian Army (RA): As Russian war production and population grows, the number of soldiers massively increases as does Equipment numbers. Technology also creates the newest weapons of war that can kill hundreds with a push of a button.
 * Military Research: The RA develops the Railgun, called Railgun I, in early 2018. The Railgun is a stronger artillery battery that can shoot shells distances of 120 miles at speeds of 500 miles per hour. More efficient designs are in development, but main focus for the military is the RAF. The J-18, Russias new fighter/bomber, is a modern fighter jet that can reach speeds of 1,130 miles per hour, holds 20 missiles, and has 7000 cannon shells. The CTP-18, or Cargo Transport Plane, can fly up to 780 miles per hour, and can carry 20 tons of cargo or 40 soldiers. The H-18, the RAFs new helicopter, can fly 200 miles per hour and has the same weapons as the J-18, and can carry 7 passengers. Naval upgrades shall be ready next year.
 * Russian Ground Forces (RGF): The army is modernized with railguns and many new soldiers are recruited. The RGF consists of:
 * 1,450,000 active soldiers
 * 2,580,000 reserve soldiers
 * 16,640 T-17 Tanks
 * 34,100 CTT-17 Cargo and Transport Trucks
 * 11,520 Railgun I Artillery Pieces
 * 4,890 Rocket Systems
 * Russian Air Force (RAF): The RAF consists of, with its new upgrades:
 * 5,230 J-18 Jets
 * 1,090 CP-18 Cargo Planes
 * 1,630 H-18 Helicopters
 * Russian Navy (RN): The RN consists of:
 * 2 Aircraft Carriers
 * 23 Destroyers
 * 65 Submarines
 * 163 Auxillary Ships
 * Logistics: The Russian wartime economy has and Russia has:
 * Budget of 470,000,000,000 dollars
 * 10,230,000 Barrels of Oil Produced a Day
 * Labor Force of 98,000,000
 * 11 Ports
 * 1,130,000 miles of road
 * 102,000 miles of railroad tracks
 * 1,312 Airports
 * Conflicts:
 * Russian Conquest of Estonia: On June 14, Russia declares war on Estonia in order to obtain warm water ports and more coast. The RN quickly moves into the Baltic to blockade Talinn and other coastal cities. The RAF creates a no-fly zone over Pskov and Estonia, and the RAF also begins bombing Estonian military positions. The RGF sends a task force of 110,000 soldiers and 800 tanks to seize Talinn and neutralize the Estonian Army. The two forces meet on June 26, at the city of Tartu and the Estonian Army looses most of his equipment and 4,000 soldiers. Russian forces enter Tallinn on July 3, and Russia annexes Estonia.
 * Russian Annexation of Moldavia: Russian troops enter Moldavia on August 7, and the country is annexed into Russia after troops reach the Romanian border with little resistance.
 * Russian Conquest of Latvia: Without a formal declaration of war, Russian forces continued marching south across the border into Latvia on July 6. Another naval attack lands in Kurland and both attacks converge on Riga by late July. A siege sets in as the intact Latvian army manages to force the Russians into house fighting. The battle is over after 7 days of non stop fighting, and Latvia is annexed into Russia.
 * Russian Conquest of Lithuania: After repositioning Russian forces to surround Lithuania, Russia declares war and invades on September 7. Russian forces invade from all sides and Lithuanian resistance collapses after 4 days because it is impossible to resist attacks from every direction. Lithuania is occupied by September 25, and is annexed.
 * German-Polish War: Russia invades Poland on December 1, 2018, in support of its ally Germany. The RAF launches air strikes on Warsaw and Lublin along with Polish troops to gain an advantage. The RN stationed in Kalingrad set sail for the Baltic to blockade Polish ports. Russian troops launch an offensive from the east aimed towards Warsaw. Massive Polish resistance however leads to only Lublin being taken on December 28. The war continues.
 * Cold War: Russia decides to obtain a stronghold in North America to have a base against the USA. He launches a coup in Mexico, and NPC events will determine if it succeeds (don't be biased Pisiu). Military units are moved to Kamchatka in case of war breaking out.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Lian Dynasty of China: An offer is sent to buy the lands that China has conquered that were once SSRs of the Soviet Union.
 * Democratic Republic of the Congo: An alliance is offered.
 * Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan: Ivanov demands that the Stan nations join Russia or war will be declared.
