I was a beast upon the earth, a salamander or an eel. Water passed through that earth as streams pass through a garden. Beside each stream grew sweet grass. Not much of it, but enough to feed little aphids, who lived mean and starving lives.
Now there came an upwelling of water from the earth, so that the streams ran fat and slow. The grass grew thick. The aphids mated and multiplied. Ants came to enslave the aphids, and the aphids joined together to oppose them. And in victory they returned to tend their grass, to aerate its roots and spread its seeds. So they did thrive.
Now it occurred to me that I might join two streams by crawling between them on my belly. Having done so, I saw that I might dam one stream to divert its water into the other. The aphids of the first stream came to me in protest, but I said to them, "Go to the new pond I have made, and join the aphids there in cultivation, and I will send more water unto you."
And they were greatened by the joining.
Thus, I proceeded to join all the streams together into one pond. And whenever the aphids of a small stream might protest, I said to them, "Go, look at my pond, and see the plenitude I have provided to my people there." When it became necessary to stop those upstream from polluting the water, I offered them the bounty of our pond, the grass and the watercress. And if they did not yield, I sent the ant-fighters against them, because their petty good injured the good of the all.
I appointed ministers of water and soil and seed and war, and to the most loyal, I gave these posts as reward; but ultimately their power depended on me, for they were aphid and I was Leviathan.
In time, I became the coordinator of all water and the dispensator of fertility. Then I became the coordinator of coordinators, and I gave up the control of thirst and life for control of those who had control. And all my craft became the pure and abstract management of power.
Then saw upon the horizon a wave, and the wave was God, and it approached me, saying, "We are as one, you and I. We are the gathering of the waters. Gather unto me as they have gathered unto you; we will be as one." The aphids screamed and begged me for salvation. But I was not of them. I was of the wave.
To them, there are no states, only zones and territories, Peeter explains. Russia sees itself as being surrounded by vassals and ancillaries – there is no third option.
They’ll never come to terms with the breakup of the USSR,“ Mežviets says. As Russia’s leaders themselves have declared: Russia ends where it is stopped.
It’s a conqueror’s mindset,Everyone around them are enemies.

Yueguo (Yuenan: 月国; Yuyin: Yuèguó), officially the Rupublic of Yueguo, is a country in eastern Audonia bordered by Huoxia to the south, Canpei to the southwest and Metzatta to the east. It covers an area of 1,564,197 square kilometres (603,940 square miles), enjoys coastlines on both the Emerald Sea and the Sea of Baolei and as a population of 219.6 million heavily concentrated in it's eastern half. Yueguo is and asymmetric federal republic comprising 11 provinces and the special capital district where the capital Zhenghe is located. The largest city in Yueguo is Shanjing, the old imperial city and economic capital of the country.
Yueguo has been the home to several indigenous pre-imperial states and kingdoms since at least the second millennium BCE, with the Liang civilization in the 9th century BCE marking the first internal unifcation of the eastern part of the country, while the west remained mostly divided. The Liang civilization would fracture and reunify multiple times until the 7th century CE when the Heavenly Empire of Daxia conquered both the Liang Kingdom of Yuesun and the various western states. The Daxian set up administrative and legal structures while creating the provincial divisions that are still the basis of Yueguo administrative regions today. In the 16th century, daxian rule would collapse, giving way to a series of Liang dynasty who continued the same imperial tradition as their previous overlords, but ading a lot of their own religious custom heavily centered around the lunar cycles and the astrology founding what would later be called the Lunar Empire. In the late 18th century, it would fight a series of conflits refered to as the Silk Wars against both it's neighbors and colonial power over trade rights which would mark the decline of the imperial period and rise of multiple warlords who split the country among themselve for the following century and a half. Yueguo wasn't unified again until 1921, under the warlord Liu Zhensheng, who's brutal reign would end on the 7th of may 1951 after the Red Banner Revolution. The Republic of Yueguo would be formally established a few months later on 21 novembre 1951 with the election of Hou Donghai.
Since the fondation of the republic, Yueguo has stuggled with erasing the legacy of the warlords and reform the antiquated imperial systems. The violent revolution that led to the establishement of democracy has left the country deeply divided along politically and culturally divided and the sucessive governements have had various degree of willingness to adress those problems. The Liang are the majority ethnic group representing 62.4% of the population with the Tiao (11.6%) and Daxian (10.2%) being respectively the second and third largest groups. Tianism is the majority religion (54.9%) and nearly one third of the population is irreligious. Yueguo is a member of the League of Nations and the NAPA (New Audonia Prosperity Alliance).
The foreign policy of Yueguo is best described has patient cautious maneuvering which balance the interests of the nation with risk limitation. This attitude has earned the country a reputation as both a eastern fence sitter and relable and a welcome counter balance to reactionist states.
Etymology
The name Yueguo is written in Yuanan as 月 (Yuè) which means lunar and 国 which simply means state. The name developped under the early Xù dynasty to refer to the imperial domesne which held the oldest Tianist temples. The term was originaly used informaly among the lower classes, but slowly was adopted by merchand and then the higher classes as a synonym of the entire territory under the Xù. When the Empire fell, the name continued to be used under the various warlords to refer to the the territories previously part of the Empire. When the Republic was formed, it was chosen as the obvious choice for a name.
The english word Tularia used by various Western states to refer to the country. It comes from a the phonetic translation into latin of the old audonic term Tulaar Azalharar, which roughly translated to "Silk Merchants" and is widely considered to have been the result of a miscommunication between the officials of the Oduniyyad Caliphate and the Burgoignac merchants look for a trade route west. The government of Yueguo hasn't reconnize that name as official since 1922 and msot member-states of the League of Nations use the official name of the country.
