History (1600s-Present)
Founding (1600-1650s)
A small, northern, landlocked country known as Serveyiya had begun a serious juggernaut of bloody conquests against the disgusting fiefdoms that surrounded it. It succeeded, and the peoples of all the countries that were united, were then called Imperial Serverniya, and the borders between all the states had faded indefinitely into one powerhouse.


Imperial Era (1650s-1890s)
As soon as Serverniya formed, it began to modernize under a monarchy like Russia. However, a number of people were still poor and dissatisfied with the government. Commoners were starving, and the infrastructure was frighteningly weak.


Great Calamity (1910s-1940s)

The Great Calamity began 6 years after the Soviet government’s finalization in 1905, the Calamity was a three decade long conflict that lasted until the late 1940s. This was how a majority of the world's powers had new technologies, some of which were advanced. (like after World War 2 in real life.)
