Russia is a nation located in North-West Russia, centered around its capital of Saint Petersburg. It stands as the second biggest nation within the Russian region and has, since its foundation in April 14th 2026, steadily expanded both its population and its amount of towns. It is led by KristauxSoft who serves as its sole emperor as of August 2026.
Russia is a constitutional monarchy. The Emperor, a position currently occupied by KristauxSoft, stands at the top of the hierarchy. He nominates a cabinet composed of a Chancellor and three ministers who hold this position for 2 months and have to complete set tasks during this time. The main governing body of the nation is the State Duma which is composed of a dozen senators that are either elected by the people of Russia or selected by the Emperor. Lastly, some of the eldest members of the nation form the Emergency Council, an advisory group only called up in times of crisis.
History
Founding
Prefounding
After the shutdown of Terra Aurora, a group of players coming mostly from Genoa decided to group up again for Terra Nostra. While multiple ideas were thrown around on where to settle (including Indonesia, Crimea or even Ireland), it was decided in the end that they would establish themselves around the city of Saint Petersburg, in Northern Russia.
During the premium release (that began on April 17th 2026), a handful of them started working to establish Saint Petersburg and the Russian nation as quickly as possible. The members that helped during this early era include Xixios, KristauxSoft and Riri2010 who were joined about a week later by NeFFeeh, Sepl3333 and AndrewKase.
Early issues
At the exact time the server first released, only two members of Russia were able to play (Xixios and KristauxSoft), these two spawned in Southern Africa and Canada respectively thus making their journey to Saint Petersburg quite lengthy, especially when taking into consideration the lag during the first hours of the release.
This was further worsened by the fact that members of the Soviet Union, another group that wanted to settle in the Russian region, spawned relatively close to their target areas in comparaison. Some early diplomacy had began between the two nations but without successfully creating any meaningful agreement.
As such distrust remained high and when Soviet players found themselves in a position to create Saint Petersburg first they took the opportunity with no hesitation. However, in their rush to Saint Petersburg, the Soviets had neglected Moscow and the name was seized by KristauxSoft only a few minutes later.
The failure to secure the name of Saint_Petersburg (which had always been seen as the main target), created some chaos within the group and there were thoughts of relocating somewhere else. However, after much debating it was decided that they would push forward with the original plan and a day later, on April 18th, Xixios created St_Petersburg on the North bank of the Neva river.
