Drunken Russia allows its citizens to protest their government but uses a strong police force to monitor things and arrest lawbreakers.

Drunken Russia believes in the freedom of speech and feels that it is every citizens 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.

Drunken Russia will not make deals with another country that has a poor history of inhuman treatment of its citizens.

The Beginning
Drunken Russia, after being founded by Max "Smooth Pancakes" Power as described in "The History of Drunken Russia", was still but a small nation, that alone and by itself, would be easy game for those looking to plunder it's treasures.

The Department of Diplomacy & Foreign Trade immeadiately started searching for an alliance (a group of nation upon whom Drunken Russia could depend on for aid and backing in times of need). After making a notice to the rest of the world about the nation's interest to join an alliance, Drunken Russia received many offers from prominent alliances, including from: Legion, GATO, GPA, NPO, IRON, GGA, and NAAC.

After reviewing the offers and the alliances themselves, Drunken Russia agreed to join the alliance of The Legion and take up arms in any wars The Legion may enter in return for the aid and protection offered to Drunken Russia.

The Legion
So began the age of Drunken Russia as a member of The Legion alliance. As Drunken Russia had just been founded, it was unbeknownst to the leaders that the The Great War had just been started days before, dragging much of the world into conflict.

Originally being fought as the CoaLUEtion vs. the NPO and NpO, The Legion had remained neutral thoughout the war as it had not concerned them. However, extremely soon after Drunken Russia joined The Legion and become into the 'know' of The Great War news, it was soon uncovered by The Legion that that night, NPpO was secretly planning to attack The Legion without any warning and drag them into war. Well, with the discovery of these plans, Legion declared war on NPpO (seperate from the CoaLUEtion), and The Legion was at war.

Drunken Russia quickly mobilized it's military to prepare for war against the NPpO alliances. Once being given targets, Drunken Russia launched it's troops and tanks at two nearby NPpO nations, gaining numerous victories and few defeats from the many battles between them. However, just as soon as the call to arms and declaration of war had been announced, a ceasefire and standdown of arms was called as in just a few days, NPpo and Legion had worked out a peace deal and ended The Legion's role in the war.

A week later, Drunken Russia's stint of two weeks and counting as a member of The Legion alliance was abruptly ended as Drunken Russia was expelled from The Legion alliance for suspected ties to a recently created and secret alliance, Utopian Illuminati, a suspected spying alliance, with all of it's members found to be members in other alliances and using those statuses to steal secrets and information from each alliance.

Note: More on the Utopian Illuminati and Drunken Russia's involvement is detailed in "The History of Drunken Russia".

Searching For A New Home
Drunken Russia, now larger, but without an alliance, was once again on the search for an alliance to call home and gain aid and protection from. Drunken Russia was surprised to be contacted within hours by a message from a recent alliance, The Republic of Canceled Kombat (ROCK), extending an ivitation to join them.

Republic of Canceled Kombat (R.O.C.K.)
Drunken Russia was estatic at this extension of membership and promptly jumped on it and joined the R.O.C.K. alliance. While being under membership for a decent amount of time without it's past attached, a senior member soon brought up it's name and past.

Drunken Russia would have liked to say it wasn't involved in those events, however, with The Legion still threatening to launch attacks, along with numerous other alliance, the Diplomacy of Drunken Russia was being called to the front first.

As Drunken Russia was now an official member of R.O.C.K., which could have brought R.O.C.K. under attack for "harboring a spy", Drunken Russia said to not defend it and it would face The Legion alone in war if peace could not be worked out.

Drunken Russia, through numerous days and hours of conversing and negotiating, avoided war and gained clemency from The Legion, and numerous other alliances, and was cleared of any attacks.

After a month as a regular member of the alliance, Drunken Russia was promoted to the elite membership of Royal 9 in the R.O.C.K. alliance and awarded the R.O.C.K. Honor of Peace for using and promoting peace to successfully end a hostile situation in which war may have been used.

Drunken Russia, and leader Max "Smooth Pancakes" Power has since been a loyal, faithful, and proud member of the R.O.C.K. alliance and has no plans to leave R.O.C.K. anytime in the near or distant future.

Diplomacy
The People of Drunken Russia are primarily focusing on establishing diplomatic embassies and relationships with other alliance and nations.

Diplomacy is the first act of Drunken Russia in times of war. Whether pre-emptively attacked or the existence of the threat of attack, Drunken Russia uses it's diplomatic power to solve any situations well before the thought of using military as a response is brought to the table.

Diplomacy also leads actively in the general Drunken Russia population. A law passed in September of 2006, stated that any disputes between citizens must first to attempted to be solved through diplomatic means before any fighting or violence is permitted to occur.

If attempts at diplomacy fail, the person who initiates the fight or violence is arrested and faces prison time from anywhere from 3-5 years.

If a fight or violence breaks out between two parties, and it was determined that neither party attempted to solve their dispute by means of diplomacy, both parties are charged with "Failure to Attempt Democracy" and receive an automatic prison term of 1 year with the possibility of 5-10 years added on top of the 1 year.

Communications

Television

Phone
All homes have phones and phone lines connected to them, as well as every family member having a cell phone.

To combat the problem early on in nation history of phone lines being knocked down and phone service being distrupted by severe weather in both the summer and winter, all ground phone lines are buried in the ground, using fiber optic cables, to avoid any distruption in service.

Radio
All cars come installed with basic AM/FM radio, and two versions of Satellite radio. Cars also come installed with EM (Emergency Management) radios, to alert the public of any emergencies that may arise from day to day, whether by weather, hazardous material spills, evacuations, or other emergencies.

All homes can be installed with the home versions of AM/FM/EM/Satellite radios if the owner so wishes to have them installed during construction of the home.
