Brief
Peoples Republic of Sakhaliya [Russian - Сахалинcкая Народная Pеспублика] was formed in 1948 to end the disputing over who should claim ownership of the Area [Russia or China]. After a short 2 year occupation by Soviet and US forces it was decided that the Region should be free to Govern itself, leading the speedy birth of the nation. It is a small Country that occupies the far Easterly border of Russia and also lays claim to the Island of ‘Sakhalin’ which the country derives its name from. The country has coasts with the Pacific Ocean, Sea of Okhotsk, Sea of Japan, the Sakhalin Straight and shares its borders with Russia to the East, China to the South East and the KSSR to the North East [which, due to high Tensions between the Governments, Sakhaliya refuses to acknowledge the existence of].
Sakhaliya has a Council Seat in the IPON, its main focus is the promotion of workers and Union rights amoungst the Pact members although it is occasionally critisized itself over the lack of Democratic establishment and poor Economic Development. Dispite this, it has well established Diplomatic relations with many nations, including the United States whom many still believe are trying to supress Communism from existance. Sakhaliya's two large Neighbours, Russia and China, both support Sakhaliya in many ways including Militarily and Finacially. This is seen as the main contributing factor to why the United States will not interfere with the developing Nation by any means.
Geography
The geography of Sakhaliya is made up of rugged hills and vast marsh lands wich is particularly hard to construct on. The largest of the marshlands is the Komsalomsk Area which is widely thougth to have been the Amur River's pre-historic flood plain. Much of Sakhaliya sits roughly over half a km above sea level, and consequently suffers from high winds daily, the wind erosion has made Sakhaliya's soils very thin and useless for farming except in some of the sheltered valleys away from the sea.
Sakhaliya's main industries are Coal Mining and Machinery Building, although Garment Mills are on the rise as an increasing amount of Women are leaving the household to find work. In 2003, oil and natural gas deposits were found beneath Sakhalin Island and Sakhaliya's Territorial Waters. Once extraction begins in 2008 the oil revenues could profoundly affect Sakhaliya's economy
