Nation Goals: Reunite Russia - Conquer and/or otherwise seize control over Central Asia - Rebuild the shattered USSR - Assert the USSR as a major world power - Find a way to disrupt the Luftwaffe bombings.
Nation Strengths:
Revisionist Remnant: We cannot allow the tragedies that have befallen Mother Russia to be the last gasp of Lenin's noble cause. To this end, we may have to deviate from standard Marxist-Leninist-Bukharinist orthodoxy in a number of aspects, but with Chairman Kaganovich at the helm and a cadre of thinkers such as Krushchev, Molotov and Mikhail Kaganovich around him, we have the people we need to chart the right course! - Increases Stability and Industrial Output.
Unorthodox Bolshevism: It is clear that we we may have to deviate from standard Marxist-Leninist-Bukharinist orthodoxy in a number of aspects in the coming years. As respectable and great as the Old Bolsheviks were, the world has changed recognizably from those days, and we must change to, for the good of Mother Russia, for the good of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. - Increases internal Political Power.
The Ural Automotive Plant: We have in our hands one of the greatest industrial complexes in all of western Siberia, capable of churning out everything from tractors and combine-harvesters to cars to APC's and tanks in vast numbers. No doubt a great boon in any attempts at motorizing agriculture, society and most importantly, the Red Army. - Increases Industrial Output and Economic Potential.
Lenin's Mausoleum: The father of the Revolution, Vladimir Illych Lenin, was preserved by his successor upon his death so that all might remember who liberated us from the tyranny of Tzarist rule. During Barbarossa, it was evacuated from his resting place, and now rests in our respectful stewardship. Possession of his remains lends a certain legitimacy to our government in the eyes of the people. - Increases Stability.
Nation Weaknesses:
German Terror Bombing: Indeed, the cruel Nazi's haven't settled for gloating about their wanton destruction of the Soviet Union during the War, they derive some cruel pleasure from kicking the Russian nation while it's down, far, far too often Luftwaffe airplanes streak across the skies dropping bombs on towns, roads and villages, killing and devastating as we try to rebuild. - Reduced Construction Speed and Economic Potential.
Unpopular Priorities: What defenses against the air-raids we have, we focus around our most important urban, infrastructural and industrial sites. This has led to large rural areas with... regrettably little protection. But we cannot just abandon what is left of our industries to make sure some farmers can plow their fields, we must hold on to our pragmatism, right? - Dissatisfaction with the regime will keep growing in the countryside if nothing is done about the bombings.
Economic Malaise: The chaos, the bombings, to say that Russia is in a bad state is very much an understatement. The instability, raiding and Luftwaffe bombings is severely hampering any truly wide-ranging effort at rebuilding the economies and infrastructure of what once was the Soviet Union. For any truly meaningful large-scale reconstruction and recovery, Russia needs to be stabilized, by any means needed. - Reduced Industrial Output and Economic Potential.
Brief History of Nation: After Lenin's passing, a vicious power-struggle erupted between the moderate faction of the CPSU led by Nikolai Bukharin and the radical left hardliners with Joseph Stalin at the helm. For a while, it seemed like Stalin may become the next Premier of the Soviet Union but after mysteriously dying, Bukharin secured his control over the USSR and promptly banished Stalin's closest supporters to irrelevant administrative jobs in the far corners of the Soviet Union. One of these men was Lazar Kaganovich, one of Stalin's closest disciples he was put at the head of the local tax agency office in the city of Tyumen where he was supposed to work and be forgotten. Then, the Nazis came.
As the USSR collapsed all around him, Kaganovich saw his chance, refugees streamed eastward across the Urals, people terrified of the Nazi terror at their heels, then came battered remnants of the Red Army, retreating and attempting to reorganized and hold the enemy off at the Urals. Working through his contacts in the local oblast administration established during his time as head of the local tax office and securing the support of generals Konev, Rokossowsky and Karbyshev, Lazar Kaganovich secured most of Western Siberia and reorganized it into the West Siberian People's Republic with it's capital in Tyumen.
The WSPR allied with the West Russian Revolutionary Front in the following West Russian War during the 50's. However, during this unfortunate time, two out of the three armies Kaganovich allied with eventually broke off due to the Premier's inability to solve the constant Luftwaffe terror bombings as well as their own personal reasons. All of this culminated into the West Siberian People's Republic eventually splitting apart and getting down to the territory of the Tyumen Oblast.
The situation is not looking bright in Tyumen. The Nazi bombings are still there as are the threats of the Black League and the Third Army upon the horizon and it's only the matter of time when they will attack. Fortunately, Chairman Kaganovich sees no danger here, only a chance to finally avenge his mentor Stalin. If he would have ruled the USSR instead of Bukharin, they would surely not be in situation as they are now. And there is no thing that can stop him from realizing this dream and rebuild a strong Mother Russia.

Brief History of Nation:
Germany emerged from the First World War a defeated nation, her army beaten on the field and her allies collapsing under the strain of four years of unrelenting war. In the boiling cauldron of economic chaos and political instability that was the Weimar Republic, the far-right National Socialist German Workers' Party led by the charismatic Adolf Hitler steadily grew in its electoral appeal.
The NSDAP soon gained members such as Martin Bormann, Joseph Goebbels, Hermann Göring, Heinrich Himmler, amongst other völkisch nationalists. The Nazi Party gained more and more popularity until the failure of the attempted Beer Hall Putsch. The party soon surged afterwards and with the start of the Great Depression, the NSDAP's ideals of a return to glory and revenge were more popular than ever, seeing an increase in middle-class Germans, most notably Albert Speer, joining the party. In 1933, President Paul Von Hindenburg, the conservative icon and hero of Tannenberg, chose Adolf Hitler to become chancellor.
Following Hindenburg's death, the NSDAP assumed full control of Germany. The NSDAP transformed Germany into a one-party totalitarian regime and persecuted Communists, Socialists, Jews, and other "undesirables". In 1936, Germany made it's first move towards expansion when it re-militarised the Rhineland. The French and British failed to stop them. In 1938, the Federal State of Austria was peacefully annexed following the Anschluss of March that year, thus beginning the long-dreamt of goal of uniting the German-speaking peoples of Europe into one Reich.
During the "Sudetenkrise", the NSDAP used pan-German sentiments to spark conflict with the First Czechoslovak Republic. The primary goal was the unification of ethnic Germans living in Czechoslovakia with those living in the German Reich (at the time, ethnic Germans made up 90% of the Sudetenland and 20% of the whole Czechoslovak state). To settle the matter, the Munich Conference was held and Czechoslovakia was forced to give up the Sudetenland to Germany. The next year brought about the annexation of the rest of Czechoslovakia (which the Allies could only protest). It was at this point, Britain and France declared their support of Poland in case of a German invasion.
Germany demanded to annex the historically disputed Danzig Corridor, that separated East Prussia from the German mainland. Upon Poland's refusal, an invasion occurred, in which, both Germany and the USSR invaded Poland. To ensure Polish sovereignty, England and France declared war on Germany, sparking the outbreak of the Second World War.
Germany quickly overran the Polish and turned north. Denmark and Norway were easily defeated in 1940, and the German army turned west, invading Belgium and the Netherlands. German forces successfully surrounded and destroyed the British Army at Dunkirk and forced the French to surrender.
After the fall of France, Italy joined the war, and the British fleet was trapped in the Mediterranean, when German Paratroopers seized Gibraltar and the Italians overran Egypt, capturing the Suez and cutting off the British supply lines to Africa.
The next year German forces launched Operation Barbarossa and invaded the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The disorganised and demoralised Red Army was easily destroyed and the nation collapsed, with Germany taking all the land up to the Urals and dividing it into several Reichskommisariats: Ostland, Ukraine, Moskowien, and Kaukasus.
Around this time, the Empire of Japan attacked the Americans in Pearl Harbor, bringing the US into the war. Within a year England had been conquered, and Europe was completely under Nazi Domination. In 1944, a German plane launched from a Japanese carrier conducted a nuclear strike on Pearl Harbor, the first of its kind in history. The Americans soon signed an armistice and the war ended.
With the war over, Germany enacted several of its ambitious plans for Europe. The most successful of which, was the rebuilding of Berlin into Germania, and the Atlantropa Project, which ruined the economies of all the Mediterranean countries, leading to them abandoning Germany and forming the Triumvirate.
It was around 1950, when the German economy collapsed in on itself in a spectacular fashion. The German economy took the rest of Europe with it and led to the 1950s being a decade of chaos. Different factions within the Reich came up with different ways to solve the crisis.
Speer and his reformists wanted to reform the Reich and liberalise. Himmler and the SS believed the opposite, in that National Socialism hadn't gone far enough. They created their own ideology, the Burgundian System. Göring and his militarists recognised that the root cause was that the economy was fueled by conquest, and that the Reich just needed to start conquering again to fix the economy. Bormann's conservatives saw the need for a level of reform, but not to the extent of risking long-lasting damage to the work of the Führer.
Tensions built up until an attempted SS coup, led to the establishment of the SS State of Burgundy and the separation of the SS into the German and Burgundian SS.
Just as order was seemingly restored, Hungary's government collapsed and Germany struck a deal with the Romanians and Slovakians to allow them to invade Hungary in exchange for economic assistance. After the Transylvanian conflict, another flared up in RK Moskowien. A united front of partisan forces attacked the Germans and forced them to abandon the Arkhangelsk–Astrakhan (A-A) line. The war was long and brutal, but the Germans eventually defeated the partisans at great cost, largely in part to General Hans Speidel.
After the war, which would be known as the West Russian War, the economy finally stabilised when those who were considered degenerates were used for slave labor instead of extermination. The entire German economy soon became based on slavery. As the slave dependency grew, so did the risk of revolt, a fear that many Germans had.
As the economy recovered, the military stagnated and the young people, with no need to work due to slaves, became interested in black market American Music, Italian Cinema, and forbidden literature. This lead to the rise of a new generation of students discontented with the Reich's government.
And now, as the Reich enters its 29th year, its future appears uncertain. In spite of the growing domestic unrest and the sluggish recovery of the German economy, the Reich still manages to rally itself around its Führer, but this latter-day Bismarck is not long left for this world, as the twin horrors of age and disease wrack his body and mind, the Reich will soon be forced to a crossroads, with the fate of 113,795,251 people hanging in the balance of whoever succeeds the Führer, and takes Germany into this still young decade.

Brief History of Nation: After the German victory over the Soviet Union, Ostland and it's neighbouring Reichskommissariat counterparts were created as client colonies to Berlin. As the most stable of the Reichskommissariats and the most settled by Germans, Ostland was named the model colony of the Reich. Through military intervention and Germanization, a large part of native resistance was eliminated. Currently, the political atmosphere of Ostland mirrors that of the Greater Reich.

Brief History of Nation:(Use TNO wiki if you need help)
Pre War (1880-1939):
Japan had rapidly industrialized and militarized under Emperor Meiji, establishing itself in victories in the First Sino-Japanese War, the Boxer Rebellion, the Russo-Japanese War, and the First World War. Growing in strength, the military completed numerous conquests in China until the Marco Polo incident, bringing the country into war with China.
World War Two (1939-1947):
With its superior forces, the Imperial Armed Forces dominated over the Chinese military, winning victories against both the Kuomintang and the Communists. As the war raged on with terrible losses, the Empire transformed, with the government coming to be led by the Imperial Rule Assistance Association in a more totalitarian form of rule. Prime Minister Konoe, unable to bring complete victory over China would be replaced by General Hideki Tojo in 1940.
After deliberations at the highest levels, the decision was made to go to war against the United States as result of the Hull Note. On December 7, 1941 PST, the Imperial Navy brutally attacked Pearl Harbor, destroying significant portions of the American Pacific Fleet. The Imperial Navy would continue with a string of victories, eventually winning the Battle of Midway which saw Imperial Navy Special Naval Landing Forces troops raise the flag over Midway in 1942. As 1942 continued and into 1943, the Empire continued its expansion south, seizing the Philippines, Burma, Malaya, Indonesia, Singapore and several key islands in the first months of the war.
Despite American industrial supremacy, a nuclear strike carried out by a German plane launched from a Japanese carrier destroyed the American Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor in 1945. With this, by August 1945, the United States unconditionally surrendered aboard the Akagi. This agreement saw the gaining of ports on the West Coast and the lifting of the oil embargo.
Soon, without American or allied support, the Chinese line crumbled. With cruel and brutal offensives beginning in 1945, the Imperial Army within two years would reach Chongqing and fight the last official battle of the war there. By the end of 1947, the war had been won in China.
Post War (1947-1962):
Despite its victory in the war, it came at a cost, both economically and militarily. Over the years, the economy began to recover due to imports of raw material from colonies and allies, with the zaibatsus expanding. The rebuilding of the Japanese society, economy, and military took time, with emphasis on strengthening the economy and 'properly' educating the Empire's subjects in its territories. One priority of the military was to not lag behind the Germans, and due to their previous assistance, coupled with better access to the raw materials, the Empire became the second nation to develop the bomb in 1949. In efforts to deter the Germans, projects into intercontinental bombers were restarted after being paused at the war's end. Yet the military began to shift away from fighting conventional wars towards combating insurgencies, facing off with rebels in every place the Empire had just conquered.
Under Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, the Empire restarted anti-partisan operations in Korea in 1950, successfully destroying several groups. In 1958, after service as Prime Minister for a long 18 years, the aging Tojo was replaced by Prime Minister Hiroya Ino.
The Japanese economy came to be the largest in the world, as the nation thrived. Despite persistent resistance efforts in the overseas territories, the Empire at home was successful. In recent times an increasing importance has been placed on maintaining deterrence and keeping up ties with Germany. While battling insurgents, within the military infighting continues, while commanders still plan for potential conflicts north with the Russians or with Germany allies.
In the home islands, the Tsushima Tunnel Project is underway, using Chinese and Korean laborers to build a rail system to connect the mainland to Japan. Expected to be finished later 1962, the Empire is paving the path to cement its place as the leader of Asia, whatever the cost.
