The group has perished into the abyss of inactivity, and I cannot be here to pick it up so much. Additionally, I won't force the other admins to pick up the group, eating up their time from their lives.

So, In conclusion, if one of the admins want to pick up this group to change it to something else, they're free to, this group is theirs if they want to use it for their own RP purposes. Until then, I'm raising a cup of tea to the memory. We've lasted a month, almost 200 announcements and this was a bloody damn good experiment.

Congratulations to you all, and thanks for being here. Fare the' well.

Let us never forget the sacrifices of our forefathers who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.

After the conclusion of the the Greco-Turkish war in Anatolia, the Russian Empire has begun shifting its forces, moving the army of the Caucasus northwards towards the border of the Ukraine, while one of the armies situated on the Polish border has been moved to the Baltic, with the Russian Empire formally demanding the complete annexation of both Latvia and Estonia, the Tsar has offered the governments of both nations a form of autonomy and continued local elections, however the Russian government will not tolerate the further existence of states stolen from the Empire, first by the Germans, then by Versailles. Should the Baltics accept, the Tsar, with the support of the Duma, has declared that all non-Russian minorities will be extended the same equal rights, as befits rightful citizens of the Empire, which the Empire declared to the people via a speech in Petrograd, appearing outside of the Imperial Palace alongside Grand Protector Kolchak.

Tsar Kiril Romanov: "People of Petrograd, my brothers and sisters, my sons, my daughters, listen well! Recently, even the very thought of Russian involvement sent the Turks reeling, and with the victory of the Greeks, and the liberation of Constantinople from the Turk, now, finally, we can turn our eyes from the South, secure in the knowledge that the peace and freedom of all the Anatolian peoples have been secured, even the Turks who, under the jacboot of their tyrannical and maddened leader, lost thousands in a doomed war. Once more, the Russian Eagle has ascended above the affairs of lesser nations, and brought stability and peace to a region once wracked with war and tension, however I am not blind to our own faults."

"My predecessor, Tsar Nicholas, God rest his soul, made a great many mistakes in ruling this country. He refused to see his people as more than an asset, or his army as more than just soldiers, he saw Russia as the Grand Empire it once was, rather than the decrepid husk it had become under his leadership, Russia is a modern nation, and despite its wounds, still it remains one of the greatest nations upon God's Green Earth, and yet still, we imagine that we can stay mired in the past, while the world sprints ahead of us."

"This must not be so!"

"No more will we divide this country based upon who is Russian and who is not, for in my eyes, and in the eyes of God, we are all citizens of this great Empire, be you Russian, Polish, Latvian, Estonian or any other ethnicity, this Empire has a duty, and you have a duty to your Empire. From this day forward, all citizens of this Empire, of any ethnicity, will have all the rights and privileges afforded to any Russian.

This is the will of God, and your Tsar, and once we have brought the rebellious territories back under our wing, we will not drive their people away, as we did once before."

For God, and for the Russian Empire!"

After this, the Tsar brought forward the Pariarch of Russia before the crowd, to make a sermon further reinforcing the Tsar's reign and his new mandate.

Alongside this, the Tsar also declared that a grand conclave is to be held in Petrograd, to be attended by major politicians, scholars, philosophers and commanders from both the White and Red sides of the Russian people, and, controversially, it is said that even Lenin will attend. While the conclave will be a private occassion, foreign dignitaries and journalists will also be allowed to end. This occassion, the Tsar says, is to be held to help heal the rift between White and Red Russians, as he acknowledges that even though the Reds were defeated, they most certainly prepare for yet another revolution.

In addition, agents of the Okhrana will attend, prepared to both investigate and infiltrate remaining Soviet cells should the talks fail. During the talks they will take on the guise of Soviet supporters, arguing for the Reds, though not so much as to actually effect the conclave. It is hoped that in this way, they will easily be able ti insert themselves into Soviet cells.
