@Meppo Grimly realizing that there is an alternate universe out there that endlessly debates about whether the Chinese Nationalist Party and Chiang Kai-Shek, or Boris Yeltsin, was AES, if pointless debates about whether Kemalism or Baathism are Real Socialism (TM) irl are any indication.

The Socialist Revolutionaries were Actually Existing Socialists, so yes that would make Boris Yeltsin AES 😛
 
I would like to credit the map to allthepresidentsmen, who has helped me out with the numbers and the names

Other than that I do not know how to adequately explain this

General elections were held in Mexico on 2 June 2030. Voters elected a new president, 500 members of the Chamber of Deputies and 128 members of the Senate of the Republic for a period of six years. These elections took place concurrently with the 2030 state elections.

The incumbent president Claudia Sheinbaum, a member of the left-wing National Regeneration Movement (MORENA), was not constitutionally eligible for a second term. Secretary of the Interior and former Governor of Michoacán Alfredo Ramírez Bedolla emerged as the top contender to succeed Sheinbaum and ultimately secured the nomination of the ruling coalition, Sigamos Haciendo Historia. Former Governor of Yucatan Mauricio Vila Dosal emerged as the frontrunner of the right-wing alliance, Patria y Solaridad, controversially following an endorsement from far-right influencer and former presidential candidate Eduardo Verástegui. The Democratic Alliance, a centre-left coalition primarily formed by the Citizens' Movement and the Party of the Democratic Revolution, nominated former governor of Nuevo Leon Samuel García.
Alfredo Ramírez Bedolla won the presidential election by less than 2.5 points, marking the second closest Mexican presidential election of the 21st century since 2006. The 2030 general election is considered one of the most controversial campaigns in Mexico's history up to date, marked by riots in Mexico City over perceived election fraud and mismanagement of anti-sinking measures, in addition to assassinations of up to 160 political operatives and allegations of American electoral interference.

So in my scenario, there is:
  • The primorye clique that is under Chinese (and partial Japanese) influence that still is open for trade.
  • The Irkutsk Clique as a big Siberian Clique backed by China, and is their resource depot.
  • An American backed clique in Siberia that fights over Sakha with the Irkutsk clique.
  • A Tuvan clique.
  • The former Omsk clique run by a attention seeking misogynist that gets crushed by negatively polarizing both the Chinese and Americans towards helping each other for once. (this was my creativity going wild though, so don't take it too seriously)
  • Central Russia to the Ural area are probably where a lot of the proxy fighting between EU/America and China occur.
  • Petersburg clique that is gets Solar panels and weapons and such from thr EU in exchange for keeping refugees in, illicit money of EU politicians safe, and Chinese backed cliques out of their vicinity.
  • Moscow is either effectively a city state run by former Putin cronies clinging on bc nukes or a heavily contested city like Beijing in the Chinese Warlord era as taking it means some legitimacy.
  • Related to the above, I have an off the wall idea of Lukashenko creating a save haven for Putin cronies and bureaucrats, and therefore getting nukes and nuclear codes that he uses as leverage to get money and hire engineers and scientists from Germany or something, and just chill as eastern europe descend into chaos.
  • Chechen clique that not only participate in the Caucasus wars between Turkey and Iran, but also tries to carve out their own influence in a fragmented Russia.
  • At least one Clique based on Militia based in Ukraine during the war, and another based on a Russian PMC there, probably somewhere around Belgorod, Volgograd, and Rostov.
  • There probably at least is one faction that tries to imitate Old White Army generals.
  • There probably are several PMC units that don't act as established cliques, but as mobile units, and act like bandits in their offtime.
These are ones I could think off my head.

Dunno if it's appropriate, but I've recently discovered a song by Krovostok, "Москва-область", that describes a fairly similar (if more old-school post-apocalyptic) scenario on the scale of Moscow Oblast. Moscow has been bathed in gas, while the surrounding oblast has been divided by factions including, but not limited to: anarchists in Mytishchi, libertine cossacks to the south, "a dick with the last name Khrustal" in Sheremetyevo, the managers of a concentration camp cluster in Balashikha (though it's said to be calmer up north) and an apparent autocracy/state of self-governance in Khimki. The less said about Domodedovo, the better. It's not precisely specified what faction the narrator belongs to, though they are currently in control of Dolgoprudny; it matters little because the narrator specifies that they intend to reach the Volga and get on the move real soon because the gas is seeping from Moscow to the rest of the oblast.

Thank you, I appreciate that
Cyrillic does have a particular reputation and a history of improper application to some degree

I also wanted to see, in general, if I could edit Russian Wikipedia infoboxes

Tbh I can see that but I mostly based it off Ted Bundy's infobox with parts of Chikatilo's box included and edited to fit

This is also set in a Russia with guberniyas as a surviving administrative division, so it's either a surviving Empire or a surviving Republic (mostly because while it would have worked fine for RF or USSR I don't think he would've accrued the same amount of media attention OTL Bundy did until the 1980s)

Funny thing is, I keep imagining in an American time of troubles or warlordesqe scenario, Texas essentially becomes the Christian version of Hindutva, Florida sets up an Antipope, California eventually invents a form of American Dengism, and many of the states classified as "blue" ends the Cuban Embargo almost entirely to spite DeSantis.
