Eurasian Empire (pre-war)

''All this information is pre-war history to the story. For the future one, see the Eurasian Empire (post-war)''

The Eurasian Empire was a historical empire that extended across Europe and Asia until 2025, following the end of World War 3, the world was completely destroyed. The rise of the Eurasian Empire was through the popular Eurasia Party, whose goal of imperialism and neo-fascism inspired the people to forge an entire empire. It was argueably the most powerful nation in human history, rivalling the Caliphate and the United States of North America.

The House of Romanov was returned to the throne in 1979, wanting to return to the days of the Russian Empire. There were many dissident elements that launched numerous rebellions and assassinations over the decades. In the 21st century, they were closely watched by the imperial secret police, and thousands were exiled to Siberia.

The Eurasian Empire functioned as a parliamentary federal semi-constitutional monarchy with many parties making up its democratic government. The ruling party was the of the Eurasian-White Party, a coalition government combining the Eurasian Party, the founders who are compiled with fascists, ultranationalists and totalitarians, and the White Party, who are compiled of republicans, democrats, liberals, theocrats and monarchists who ruled Russia after Operation Unthinkable.

Party members managed to survive World War 3 by taking refuge in the Ark Facility deep in the Caucasus Mountains, where they slumbered for over five-hundred years.

History
After the gradual rise of the need for Hope energy, the people of the old Russian Republic grew to respect totalarian, fascist ideologies that promoted their nation as stronger than every nation, giving rise to the Eurasia Party in 1964. There is tension within the Russian government between the Eurasia Party and the White Party. The Eurasia Party idealize fascist ultranationalism, as they believe the current federal government has the interests of maintaining the status quo, rather than looking to make Russian civilisation reach its peak. But in reality, the Eurasian Party's popularity came because of their solution to the energy crisis was to imbed all territories, cited to have originally belonged to the Russian Empire, of Hope-rich nations in order to sustain themselves until an alternative resource to their problems, which was greatly supported more than the White Party's idea of dismantling all advanced technology in order to create technologies based on simplier designs.

After the gradual rise of popularity of the Eurasia Party, but not wanting to start a civil war, the Eurasians forced the White Party to accept a coalition government between the two in order to please both the radical and moderate wings in the Russian Duma, but most White Party members are kept as "advisors" within the Duma, despite agreeing to an equal amount of members. With that came radical reforms that range from Orthodox Christianity become the state religion with mass conversions of minor religions, the banning of all left-wing parties, the reactionary pursuit against the liberalism of gender laws and sexuality, mandetory conscription of men over eighteen followed with brutal training resembling Russian Spetznaz and the return of the surviving Romanov family to return as the Tsar of Russia. Seeing that the mutual distribtuion of Hope wasn't working fast enough in order to power their machines, Russia adopted the act of annexation of numerous nations, including the entirety of Eastern Europe and other Hope-powered nations, leading the the official formation of the first Eurasian Empire.

Seeing the great power of the Eurasian Empire, many nations around the world formed coalitions, unions and confederations against the might of Eurasia. This culminated in years of tension that led to the gradual build-up of militaries larger than those who partook on WW1 and WW2 combined.
