The Buryat Military Okrug (or district) is a state on the fringes of the Russian Republic. In the late 1940s the Republic expanded into Siberia to secure the area before warlords or the Soviet Union did first. It only got as far as the area of Buryatia when it discovered and got bogged down in a war against the Russian Fascist Party (RFP) under Vozhd (leader) Konstantin Rodzaevsky. In the Anti-Fascist Pacification Campaign that followed, the socialists of Russia, acting independent of the government, traveled to Buryatia to fight their ideological enemies. The RFP was finally defeated only with the help of the Americans in 1949.
The socialists were barred from returning to the rest of Russia and created their own organization. Led by Varlam Shalamov, the Socialist-Revolutionary Combat Organization (SRCO) (similar to the original), not only continued to fight the now underground RFP, but also turned its sights on the Russian government.
By 1952 Governor Alexy Baksheev, who rules as head of the paternal autocrat Buryatia Military Council, indifferent to the problems of the state he rules, sees his forces as well as his own authority stretched thinner and thinner dailyโฆ
Starting Situation and Set Up to Rebellion
After years of unrest, the General Command of Buryatia will make a push to end political forces that plague Buryatia once and for all. Unfortunately it does not have enough resources to fight both the RFP and the SRCO, and only one can be focused on at a time.
- If the FRP was crackdown down on, after stopping their marches, their pogroms against Jews or suspected ones, targeting their leadership and shutting down its newspapers, the crackdown will end with Operation: Netsvetov. Rodzaevsky, thought dead after the Anti-Fascist Pacification Campaign, will, along with the entire leadership of the party, be killed in a firefight. Fascism in Russia is dead.
- If the SRCO was cracked down on, after rooting out guerrillas, disbanding their unions, their communes, and their pamphlets, the crackdown will end with Operation: Vladimir. Operating mostly out of forests in the countryside, those with the highest number of SRCO activity will be burned to the ground to flush out the SRCO, and any members who flee the fires will be easy pickings for government soldiers.
With one group taken out, an eerie calm will befall Buryati

But because of some end-game crisis, the new administration of Moskowien is scripted as Speer
I made a post a bit back about an insane demand from my boss. Essentially, she told me that my pants were too revealing and that they showed by bulge (they do not). She then told me that I needed to replace my work pants. If you want to read my original post, you can find it here.
To recap what advice I got from my original thread, here it is:
- Go talk to HR
- Never talk to HR
- Go talk to a lawyer
- Lawyer will waste your time
- Your pants are fine
- You need new pants
- She wants to bang you
- She hates you
After dwelling a little bit on my options, I settled for a middle-of-the-road approach.
I contacted two well-known lawyers in my area and got a consultation from them about my situation. They both thought that while I was sexually harassed, the case wasn't bulletproof as there was little evidence, and no pattern of abuse. They then also warned me about going to HR without any evidence, as it can cascade into me losing my job in unexpected ways. fine.
Since I needed evidence, and a pattern of abuse, I first wanted to read up on what standards my company has set for managers when it comes to dealing with sexual harassment. I requested from our online "learning" catalogue to take the sexual-harassment and "tough conversations" courses that are normally required only for managers.
In the "though conversations" module, there was a scenario where a male supervisor needed to ask a female employee to correct her work outfit, as it did not meet the company's dress code. The module in plain English states that the supervisor is not to intervene and to refer the issue to HR. I assume that the inverse, a female supervisor reprimanding a male's outfit, would follow the same standards.
I then sent an email to my boss asking her to follow up on our previous conversation. I wrote:
"To <Boss>,
I want to clarify some things regarding our previous conversation. Please confirm whether or not my understanding of your statements is correct:
-
My pants violated our dress code by being too tight and revealing my "bulge"
-
The issue pertains to all my pants, not a specific subset of my wardrobe
-
This is a requirement from management, and not a request
Please get back to me.
Sincerely,
- /u/TransparentVoices"
It took over a full work day, but the response I got was
"To /u/TransparentVoices
Yes, I did tell you to fix your wardrobe.

What I donโt really know is if thatโs only because classic western authors couldnโt or didnโt bothered to try to learn Arabic or because there really isnโt that much of a documental tradition in the Islamic world.
What would you like to say to them?
In the US essentially every kid learns all of the states and their capitals by like age 8 or 9, normally with the assistance of an educational song. Do you think a child of that age in your country could name all the regions/counties/states/whatever and their capitals in your country or would that be unusual?
I see that the population dropped from 160k in 1990 to 60k in 2000.
Was it because some local reason (like i don't know, drop in mining jobs) or was it for the general bad situation in all of Russia?
