History

Forming of the Russian Republic

The Founder of the Russian Republic, Theartofreading spawned in Xinjiang in September 2022 and travelled northwards to set up a permanent base.

As the location of Novosibirsk was occupied by another town at that point, the real-life location of Barnaul was chosen. A small wooden ostrog was established and the first pieces of track of the Trans-Siberian railway was also created at this time. A few days later the town of Barnaul was created. The ostrog was torn down at this point, and the first permanent structure was built - the Barnaul Town Hall - modelled loosely on the real-life Barnaul Station. Stone was generously donated by DillJam, owner of Chelina, a town in the Kamchatka Peninsula. The town joined the nation "Soviet", owned by Manatsu_, located on the eastern edge of Kazakhstan. Initial growth was slow.

Around a month after the creation of the town, Airflamingo86 joined the town, and soon after established "Novoaltaysk" directly adjacent to Barnaul. Chinese hunter attacks were frequent, especially from Kasana1919810. Much gold and resources were lost. After the completion of the Town Hall and Railway Station and the central square of Barnaul, work began on the construction of the Dormition Cathedral Omsk. The town of Berdsk was created in November 2022 by Alpro12345, with funds from Theartofreading. Berdsk is now the oldest surviving town in the Russian Republic. After several months enough gold was gathered to create the nation of the "Russian Republic". The towns of Barnaul, Berdsk and Novoaltaysk subsequently left the nation of "Soviet". Around this time, Saltiestspinach, Hardcod3d and Player_9880 joined Barnaul and Berdsk, later becoming important figures.

After the creation of the Russian Republic, Gamez_Admins (King of Kievan Rus) and Chunk_Of_Cheese (Dictator of Russia) invited the nation to join the "Holy Empire Of Rus", led by HenriquePotter of St Petersburg (Also known as "HouseTyrell". After joining the "Holy Empire Of Rus'" the Russian Republic was provided with military support against hunters, mostly through StulenKaiser. The "Battle of Barnaul" took place in the December of 2022, involving 10 residents of Barnaul, 2 chinese hunters(One of which was Kasana1919810), and the foreign volunteers of Gamez_Admins and Chunk_Of_Cheese. This battle was indecisive and resulted in the death of all 10 Barnaul as well of one of the hunters.

Notable players, Newtonkiller and _Proto_ joined around this time to establish the town of "Bashkortostan". Steady growth occurred over the following months. The Russian Republic soon became the most populous nation in Siberia. Meanwhile, Manatsu_ mysteriously disappeared after long periods of inactivity, and the nation of "Soviet" began to languish. After the erasing of Manatsu_, a resident of Leningrad (The Soviet capital), of the name ElGalloMaldito, seized control. At this time, located a short distance west of Barnaul at Lake Kulundinskoye, (Real life site of Blagoveshchenka) existed the small but charming settlement of "Lake Town", owned by SnowyGaming_321 and Alk0_.

In January 2023, SnowyGaming_321 made the decision to dissolve the settlement and relocate to Barnaul alongside with Alk0_. A large number of plots were provided on the western side of the Cathedral. A library and numerous structures were built. However, at this point SnowyGaming_321 and Alk0_, who were real life friends, had a falling out. SnowyGaming_321 (Now known as "SnowysOnCrack") relocated to Jan Mayen, while Alk0_ remained. After a brief standoff, SnowysOnCrack's plots were seized and razed to the ground by Alk0_.

Theoretical Second Collapse...

Theartofreading has expressed his intentions to leave the server once again, ending an age of growth and strength under his rule. Many are saddened at the news, but almost all have questioned the unfortunate decision and the future of The Russian Republic. Due to the fact that he left the mayor position to a player by the name of ohMerxy, Novosibirsk and Barnaul are not expected to fall soon, but there is no denying that his ultimate leaving would kill off the Russian Republic.

Soliloquy

My Dear Russian Republic, how we have tortured you.

From the dust were you brought up,

now to the dust you shall one day return.

An unfortunate existence, perpetuated by our negligence

and now, alas, you have crumbled back;

from the glory days from which we held up our heads high,

back to ashes and bittersweet remains.

As we fled from our binding problems,

we failed to care for you. You. Only you.

A lack of activity and residents led to this.

I am sorry, my beloved Russian Fantasy.

Hopefully, you will forgive us someday.

Forgive us.

A dream shall live on in those who survived the undoing of our fantasies and greatest hopes. They shall be kept as ideals in our respectable citizens' and allies' hearts, such as those in Yakutia, Sibir, and Tyumen.
