Empire of Russia is a tiny, under developed, and new nation at 0 days old with citizens primarily of Russian ethnicity whose religion is Christianity. It is a backwards nation when it comes to technology and many refer to it unkindly as a 'Third World Nation'. Its citizens pay extremely high taxes and many despise their government as a result. The citizens of Empire of Russia work diligently to produce Uranium and Spices as tradable resources for their nation. It is a very passive country when it comes to foreign affairs and has no interests in war. Empire of Russia is currently researching nuclear technology for the use of nuclear power plants but believes nuclear weapons should be banned. Plans are on the way within Empire of Russia to open new rehabilitation centers across the nation and educate its citizens of the dangers of drug use. Empire of Russia allows its citizens to protest their government but uses a strong police force to monitor things and arrest lawbreakers. It has an open border policy, but in order for immigrants to remain in the country they will have to become citizens first. Empire of Russia believes in the freedom of speech and feels that it is every citizen's right to speak freely about their government. The government gives foreign aid when it can, but looks to take care of its own people first. Empire of Russia will trade with other nations with questionable ethical treatment of their citizens but prefers to keep such trade agreements a secret.
