Post-Soviet Union States (1983: Doomsday)

After Doomsday most of the USSR collapsed, except in East Kazakhstan and Asiatic Russia. Many new states arose from the chaos; below appear all of the known new states, besides the successor state of the USSR, Socialist Siberia.

Soviet Union on Doomsday
As reports of incoming American ICBM flooded Soviet airwaves senior officials, political leaders, and high ranking military commanders were rushed to command bunkers throughout the Soviet Union. Though the people in Eastern Europe and Central Asia usually did not have time to escape the missiles launched from Western Europe, the officials in Siberia had extra time to reach these fortified areas. Better yet was that many of these bunkers were well hidden from western intelligence, and virtually unknown to the Chinese. All aircraft and warships stationed in Siberia were ordered to leave over the Pacific and Arctic Oceans partially on missions to destroy American targets but mostly to avoid getting destroyed at home.

The civilians living in Siberian cities, however, had less warning, having received evacuation orders only moments before the nukes hit. Most military bases and all major cities were hit. Most notably hit was the port city of Vladivostok, and the biggest of the Siberian cities - Novosibirsk - where as many as 4 million people alone died. Compared to the rest of the Soviet Union however, Siberia had handled this disaster much better. All in all it had been hit by less than 14 nuclear devices. Given that almost all of these went off in the south or along the southern Pacific coast and that most of the small towns in the north were unaffected, Siberia, north-east Kazakhstan and the Russian Far East had a legitimate chance of survival. In the meantime, however, the surviving Soviet government had to deal with the thousands of military men and women coming back to destroyed ports and bases, and hundreds of thousands of people trying to escape the demolished cities.

WCRB Report of the former USSR
With renewed contact with several nations within former USSR, a picture can be painted of what the former Soviet political landscape looks like today. This map will be updated as new states are discovered. The map shows us the location of known states within the former Soviet Union; many more are expected to be discovered as WCRB teams move into the region. While there are many smaller city states, nomadic bands, and unorganized villages, these states reportedly are powerful enough to influence the allegiance of the smaller villages and cities, or are able to assert a measure of control over an area further from their center of power. These states are:

Also, the former region of Moldovia is today under the partial control of the Romanian successor state of Transylvania.
