    Respect Authority

    The authority in a nutshell Bingo Yeah, after a couple of time of this, it become stale from a narrative pow, not considering the lack of characterization except 'we are sooo edgy and shockin' or 'look at us doing sex and drugs, don't you see how we are soo mature'. Honestly if after a while...

    Is a Fascist Russia likely to be an expansionist power or a status quo power?

    one don't exclude the other, but the first is the usual russian geostrategic objective (kept even when Russia was called URSS) and so less emotional urgend and the second is regain national territory lost due to the war (world war and civil war)

    Is a Fascist Russia likely to be an expansionist power or a status quo power?

    It likely be an expansionist power, by this stage Finland and Poland will have been already independent and the Baltic (and/or Bessarabia) will probably also be lost...so there will be a strong incentive to return to their pre-1914 border at leastd

And wihtout the massive human loss, the epic economic disruption...
