As an adolescent, Armin Ruska would sit on his apartment porch and watch as the counter-revolutionaries run through the streets, rifles poised on their shoulders. They marched in horizontal lines, their red striped uniforms glistening in the sun. They would walk without speaking, or have any mercy of any revolutionaries that "got" in their way. The king was betrayed by his highest military officer, a power hungry general with no clear conscious. Just like most of the population in the small monarchy of Barkov-Irlav, he thought that the king was a tyrant. Many people spoke out, but many of those speakers were detained and shipped off to a prison labor camp.

The military general, Josef Djugashvlin sent five thousand troops to storm the castle, and detain the king. By the time the castle was overtaken, the king had escaped through a series of secret tunnels dug under the castle. The power struggle was just beginning.

The king was caught attempting to flee the country and had planned out according attacks for his counter-revolutionary followers to take back the capitol city. He was executed on site of his finding.

Armin graduated high school as the valedictorian and went to the most prestigious university in the country, and graduated with a Ph. D in Political Sciences. He had taken in interest in the future of his country, now in shambles over power struggles throughout the main cities. He eventually joined a marxist group that took part of the struggle.

Armin went and preached in every major city, gaining the trust of the people, unlike the General Josef. He promised political and economical reform. Just like Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, he promised "Bread, Land, and Peace" and riled up most of the crowds he saw. Armin then knew what to do next...

On the 24th day of January, a sub-zero night, two assasins proceeded to enter the home of General Josef Djugashvilan and he (Josef) never woke up from his sleep.

The country was now leaderless...and the people spoke. Armin Ruska was immediatly put into power. He formed a dictatorship based on Socialist/Communist ideas. He named it the Dictatorship of Modern Economic People's. Armin set up a strong military, although still allowed some political freedoms. Although it would take a long time, the country started to go into an economic and political climb. It's still not in the best condition, although things are improving every day...
