Main Article: History of Sakhaliya
Peoples Republic of Sakhaliya was formed in 1948 to end the disputing over who should claim ownership of Sakhalin; Russia or Japan. After a short 2 year occupation by Soviet and US forces it was decided that the Region should be free to Govern itself. Complications in the electorate procedure that conflicted with US demands lead to a military standoff between the Soviet Union and America. After a short non-violent stalemate, the US Army decided that the Region was a lost cause and all remaining US forces were shipped to Japan to help with reconstruction. The birth of the nation under a Communist banner is believed to have been a major catalyst that lead to the esculation of the Cold War in its early stages.
Sakhaliya had a brief relationship with Stalin's regime; both Sakhaliya and the Soviet Union had an open border and trade policy and goods moved freely between the countries. The line between what was Soviet and what was Sakhaliyan soils was so thin that borders were only drawn up following the months after Stalin's death in 1953 when newly appointed Nikita Khrushchev initiated a fierce de-Stalinization campaign; cutting off most ties to Sakhaliya.
During the 1960's Sakhaliya went into economic recession due to lack of trade and a series of crippling winters brought Agriculture to a halt.
