Gliese Republics (Imperial Re-Uprising)

The Gliese Federal Russian Republics (Russian: Глиза Федеративных Российских Республик) is a seven planet nation located in the Gliese star system.

The Gliese Solar government is accredited for having established the first neutral buffer zone in the galaxy, a buffer zone against the cold warring superpowers of Russia, the Soviet Union and Brazil.

Originally, it was found as a Soviet colony, until its irate citizens were tired of the abuses by the Soviet government and rebelled against Soviet rule. Anton Mukhanov, who was the Soviet Solar General of the Gliese System at the time, oversaw the rebellion carried out by the generals of the seven former Soviet vassal planets.

Although originally intent on joining Russia, Commander Mukhanov had a new idea, to establish a completely independent planetary nation, neutral against both Russia and the Soviet Union, and all "galactic superpowers". The citizens of the planets also saw Russia as being somewhat forceful, especially in enforcing Christianity, which they viewed as being no better than the Soviets enforcing Atheism.

Therefore, Commander Mukhanov proclaimed that the Gliese solar government would be self-governing, with Glizagrad, formerly New Marx City, on the planet Gliza Vetretikh. This new Gliese nation would maintain ties with all nations, although evidently, the people favored closer cultural ties with Russia, Brazil and Germany.

Overtime, the Glizans would emerge to become a major galactic power in their own right. Their doctrine of political neutrality led them to become a popular place for leaders of major nations to debate. As Freedom of Religion is an integral part of the Gliza Solar Constitution, the Glizan system has communities of both ultra-religious and ultra-atheist people, and those in between.

The Solar Archbiship of Gliza is part of the Moscow Patriarchate, the Russian Orthodox Church.
