The Russian Insurrection was a conflict that grew out of increased nationalism within the Russian populous. It is often considered to have had its roots of the geopolitical toss-up after the Tepid Era. It is often noted to be the key factor that solidified the standing of the new regional powers. The successor state of Russia, the Muscovian Republic sponsored a Eurasia-wide insurrection, seeking eventually over the course of the next century to regain its breakaway nations through treaties, which would eventually form the Union of Sovereign States, a loose confederation of former Soviet states, originally proposed by Mikail Gorbechav as a refomed succesor state to the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
