New Russian Federation of Occupied America (UN Civil War Timeline)

The New Russian Federation of Occupied America, or New Democratic People's Republic of America, is the name for the Russian Federation-established puppet state operating in the former United States. It comprises of all US states, all except for Tennessee, Mississippi, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and the new elevated state of Puerto Rico (with San Juan as the new capital of the US). In theory, it is an independent nation. In truth, however, this is only a propaganda tool of the Russians to gain the Americans' trust and it is directly controlled by the Russian Federation.

It is likely that only a handful of other nations formally recognize the NRFOA. These nations may include some of America's long time adversaries such as Iran, Cuba, and Venezuela which were and possibly still are beneficial allies of the Russian led United Nations Solidarity Council

NRFOA citizens are subject to awful treatment and some are usually "evacuated" into detainment camps or sent to execution in the greatest mass genocide since the Holocaust. Since the start of the invasion various guerrilla groups such as the American Resistance and some scattered U.S. military units launch attacks against Russian personnel and installations.

History
The NRFOA was formed on 16 January 2092 following an invasion by the Russian Federation in 2091. During the occupation, various guerrilla units attacked Russian bases, installations, and concentration/labor camps all over Occupied Amerca. These attacks were usually met with severe retaliation, bringing more violence to the civilian population and the creation of stricter laws. In one example, the Russians massacred the entire town of Montrose, Colorado by using missiles, napalm, secret police, and even Chlorine Gas, the attack in total killed 35,000 American Civilians.

In early 2093, the U.S. Armed Forces, with aid from the American Resistance, launched a major offensive on New York City and San Francisco with an American victory proving to be a turning point for the American's guerrilla war against the Russian Federation.

Terrain and Geography
The NRFOA stretches from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic coast. It is bordered to the north by Canada, to the southeast by Free America and Mexico to the south. Resources such as shale oil, coal, ore, copper, lead, molybdenum, phosphates, uranium, bauxite, gold, iron, mercury, nickel, potash, silver, tungsten, zinc, petroleum, natural gas, and timber are abundant and are often used to fuel the Russian war machine There is also bountiful and vibrant wildlife, terrain and waterways.

Borders
The New Russian Federation of Occupied America borders two nations.

Canada
Numerous American refugees are aided by the American Resistance in crossing the border into Canada, sometimes via tunnels. There are some U.S. Military forces who fell back North into Canada and are likely working with the Canadian Military and regrouping to retake the United States.

Despite the United States almost standing alone in this conflict, it is unlikely that Canada and the NRFOA have good relations as there are likely many Canadian citizens and Canadian Americans still trapped in the NRFOA, not to mention Canada's long-standing friendship with the United States. Additionally, Canadian shipping might have been destroyed during operation White Snow on the Panama Canal.

Mexico
Separated by the Rio Grande and the Mojave Desert, numerous American refugees attempt to escape across the Mexican border, some in tunnels formerly used by drug cartels. Mexican Federales are ordered to shoot border crossers on sight, but it is unlikely that this is followed due to the Russian invasion of Latin America.

It is unlikely that the NRFOA and Mexico have good relations as there are many of Mexican citizens and Mexican-Americans still trapped in the NRFOA, and as well as Mexico's long foreign relationship with the United States. Additionally, the CAFTA shipping industry was destroyed during operate White Snow on the Panama Canal.

Government
The Russian Federation divided the New Russian Federation of Occupied America into 11 different Administrative Areas modeled after former Soviet Republics.
 * California Special District: California, Nevada, Hawaii
 * Western: Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Wyoming
 * Northwest: Oregon, Washington, Alaska
 * Southwest: Arizona, New Mexico
 * North Central: Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin
 * Central: Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska
 * South Central: Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas
 * Southern: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi
 * Appalachia-Atlantic: Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland
 * Midwest: Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania
 * Northeastern: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont

In addition to these areas, Washington, D.C. comprises its own National Administrative District, it also serves as the Political Capital of the NRFOA, although the actual captitol is San Franisco, California. There are also several "International Cities," one of which is San Francisco (The first city captured by the Russians). Alaska is described as a "reeducation zone" and is heavily controlled by the Russians. Alaska has the most of the concentration camps in the occupied United States. Major resistance movements exist in all of the administrative regions across the occupied United States.

The New Russian Federation of Occupied America was very strict in its governing style. The Russian Federation sent military generals and politically corrected Americans in order to lead the New Russian Federation of Occupied America. Most of the Amendments in the Bill of Rights were completely abolished in order for the Russians to assume control over the American Population.

Military
The Military of the New Russian Federation of Occupied America is comprised of the United Nations Special Service Unit (Or UNSSU), which is the United Nations Solidarity Council's military. The UNSSU is comprised of mostly Russians, however it is required that all UN Solidarity Council Members have at least 100,000 troops contribute. The UNSSU often engages in destructive arms exercises in order to force the American People into submission.

The UNSSU soldiers wear green and black uniforms with the NRFOA Flag on their shoulders. They are seen as having grenades stored on their chest for easy access, and they are often shown carrying AK-57 weapons. The UNSSU soldiers wear black helmets with face shields designed to cover the soldier's face, and Commanders and Generals are the only ones who are allowed to lift there face shields or wear helmets without the face shield.

The UNSSU's military headquarters is in San Diego, CA in order to "aid the glorious liberation of the American people." The UNSSU also has many massive and small "Barracks" and "Outposts" across the former United States. These included condemed formed US Military bases and other structures. These structures are usually placed within a certain vicinity of major population centers and the Extermination Camps. The UNSSU was often seen patrolling American Streets and raiding civilian complexes in order to make sure that the genocide was hidden.

The UNSSU uses a variety of military equipment. Most of it is Russian equipment such as new ZT8 tanks, AK-84's, and other Russian Military equipment. The UNSSU also uses captured American, European, and Chinese vehicles. During the raid on Montrose Colorado, the UNSSU was seen using American Gunships, fighter jets, and tanks that were marked with ther markings. In the raid of Milford, Nebraska, the UNSSU was seen using American AR-15's and M4's against the civilian population.

Society and Culture
The Society and Culture of NRFOA is a "melting pot" of a mix of Americans and Russians and other races and nationalities. There have been race riots throughout the early days of occupation in the West coast. The rioters not only targeted Russian immigrants and Russian Americans, but they also attacked anyone of East Asian descent out of anger towards to the entire Russian Federation. Hispanic and Latino Americans were also attacked due to nationalistic feelings after the EMP. It is possible that Islamic and other South Asian communities (the former due to past stereotypes and the latter due to racial misrecognition) in the United States were targeted by the rioters before it was confirmed that the UNSSU had orchestrated the attack, (and likely after due to general racial tensions).

There are many refugees fleeing into the Mexican and Canadian borders or are inside detainment camps. There is a wide variety of religious denominations in the region. The UNSSU is often hostile to religious groups, especially LDS and Jehovah's Witnesses. The atrocities comitted against these two religious groups were confirmed at the Battle of San Francisco after the liberation of two concentration camps by the U.S. Armed Forces in late 2083. Another recorded instance was of UNSSU specialist Salmusa executing a Christian radio crew. During the 21st century, the Russian Government made several anti-Semitic comments. There was at least one Muslim American imprisoned at the Montrose Labor Camp. There are likely thousands if not millions of foreign nationals and illegal immigrants trapped in the New Russian Federation of Occupied America. Their homelands are likely in a fierce diplomatic battle against the Russian Federation for their return. Religiously dedicated nations such as the Vatican and Saudi Arabia may have denounced the Russian Federation for its treatment of religious groups.

Additonally, those Americans who engage in dissent are stripped of their privileges and sent to exile camps, where they are anathema to the Russians and their fellow citizens. Association and communication with the exiles is prohibited and forbidden, although some risk their own remaining freedoms by offering humanitarian aid. Production quotas have been imposed, and foodstuffs rationed, with the surplus being shipped to the Russian Federation. Travel and communications between the various zones are heavily restricted, part of the "divide and conquer" plan of the Russian Federation, as well as to hide the fact of the mass genocide.

Infant Mortality Rate
According to the Russian, the mortality rate is "7.55/1000 live births". However, this is unlikely, due to food shortages and living conditions. Additionally, soldiers of the United Nations Special Service Unit have been known to execute children as young as five years old. Infants have also been the victims of raids made by the UNSSU on Resistance and US Military strongholds.

Transportation
There are more than 7,000 airports, 90,000 km of railroad and 3,000,000 km of roadways. The management of all of this by the UNSSU is unlikely. The Russian Fedeation, however, had a nationalized slave train running from New York to Oklahoma City and a cargo rail running from San Francisco to Salt Lake City. The UNSSU has also used the massive roadway, railway, and airport systems to move troops, supplies, and resources around the occupied territories.

It is possible that the Russian Federation has invested in restoring decaying infrastructure and building new roads, bridges, canals, and power plants. Of course, this is not for the benefit of Americans as the Russians hoped to completely wipe out the US Population and replace it with a new "Russian American Society" Movement from place to place is highly restricted, as the UNSSU forces Americans to remain in large cities and resource rich towns for slave labor.

There is a no-fly zone across the entire occupied territory and civilian airliners are likely being used to ferry UNSSU forces. The Russian Federation have also known to have repaired the main powerlines, but only provide energy to the large cities, bases, and extermination camps

It became known after the LIberation of the United States that the UNSSU dug a canal across California to Lake Tahoe as ocean going cargo vessels were stationed in Carson City, Nevada. Red markings indicate that these ships belonged to the United Nations Special Service Navy and were used to bring forces inland. With the use of personal transport like cars and bikes, the UNSSU pays little attention.

Economy
According to the Russian Federation, the UNSSU is "helping" the American workers "experience the most life" they can afford. The United Nations Solidarity Council also "will help to restore" the American economy and "experience the joys" of the Unitist Idea. This is unlikely due to the Russian Federations iron-fist control on the NRFOA. The UNSSU set up numerous mines and agricultural facilities to rob the resource rich NRFOA. This follows a mercantile-oriented economy unseen since the days of European colonization. Everything produced by the colony is shipped back to the mother country for the mother's benefit alone. Other old industrial facilities such as oil refineries were restored for the benefit of the Russian Federation. It is unknown what the Gross Domestic Product of the occupied territory is.

The Rust Belt (presumably "Midwest") faces its own special problems. Most of its advanced factory equipment was removed at the start of the occupation and taken to the Russian Federation. The region suffers 50% unemployment as a result, and its residents are not permitted to leave, except to volunteer for factory work in the Russian Federation, from which no one has yet returned. The Russian Federation also put strict quotas on the American people in order to keep up with the demands of the Russian war machine. Most civilians were enslaved and forced to work without pay in order to keep up with the demands of the Russian Federation.

Symbols of the NRFOA
The flag of the NRFOA is the pale blue United Nations flag, with crossed U.S. and Russian flags superimposed on the sides. The U.S. flag is shown without its stars, and this flag is displayed during the "Liberation Day" ceremonies. The standard U.S. flag is forbidden to be flown in public and the U.S. national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner," also is outlawed. On captured American Military equipment, the UNSSU put this new flag over the old Star Spangled banner.

Former US President Bernie Sanders is included with Vladimir Putin and the leader Russian Commander in propaganda. One of the signature events of the NRFOA is "Liberation Day" (a holiday replacing the Fourth of July), which occurs on November 19th, with both Sanders and Putin is displayed on blue banners. A new Pledge of Allegiance is given by "rehabilitated" political prisoners (Later to be killed) upon release from the U.S. Concentration camps. While the prisoners are told that they are free to refuse to make this pledge, the circumstances under which it is administered suggest otherwise. The pledge states:"'I pledge my allegiance to the flag of the community of American, Russian, and United Nations of the World, and to the principle for which it stands – a nation, indivisible with others of the Earth, joined in peace, and justice for all.'"

End of the NRFOA
The end of the New Russian Federation of Occupied America began in March of 2093 when the United States, Canada, Latin American, and resistance forces launched a full-scale offensive on the Northeast Administrative Area and the entire US Eastern Seaboard. After the successful offensive on the US East Coast, the scattered UN Security Council forces in the NRFOA along with American resistance launched an offensive on the US West Coast to surround the Russian Forces. US forces launched a brave attack against San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Portland which caught the Russians off guard. After 5 weeks of defending the Russians were on the run, and the US flag was raised above LA.

After the West Coast offensive. The Americans lead the United Nations Security Council peacekeeping force to take back the lower 48 US states. During there offensive on the Midwest, the US discovered the horrible atrocities committed by the Russian Federation. The US forces found ditches full of dead bodies, burnt down schools, etc. They also found evidence of Medical Experiments performed on political prisoners.

After the liberation of the Midwest, the Russian's last key stronghold was Chicago Illinois. Knowing that the Americans discovered the Russian atrocities, the Russians decided to detonate an experimental WMD to destroy all evidence of what occured, however this failed. What become known as the "American Massarce" went down in history as an event that would change the course of history forever.
