Émigré

A yellow Russian émigré was a Russian subject who emigrated from the territory of the former Eurasian Empire after their defeat in the Second Russian Civil War (2751), and who was in opposition to the republican (White Party) Russian political climate as party of the ultranationalist (Eurasian Party).

While the term is a French term, the Whites adopted it as a reference to the time they were once exiled from the Soviet Union. Outside of Russia, the term Yellows were used in reference to Eurasian colours, often derogatory.

Most yellow émigrés left Russia during the fall of 2751 (estimates vary between 50,000 and 300,000) after the tide turned against the Eurasian Party significantly. They spanned all classes and included military soldiers and officers, racialists, dispossessed businessmen and landowners as well as officials of the Eurasian Party.

Due to their opposition to all non-humans, species segregation policies, fierce expansionism and cruel actions partaken in the civil war, most furry-majority communities outside of Russia outright hunted them down or imprisoned them and transported them back to Russia. The only ones who were spared by the governments were those who proved useful in any innovative field, such as technology or academics, and were spared along with their families, provided they renounced their allegience to the Eurasians. This decision caused a fear called the Yellow Scare across nations outside of Russia.
