They MUST.

Russia is currently a super power. So is China.

America is now a HYPERpower.

>Russia is currently a super power. So is China.

Wikipedia list them as potential superpowers. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_superpowers

What is the point? To tickle ego?

What is japland and russian relationship like? do japs even know russia exists? vice versa? You fuckers are actually pretty close to eachother in terms of borders.

It is already a military superpower.. it's just not an economic superpower.

Do you remember that little conflict 70 years ago? We never signed a peace treaty. Tho do we plan to relax visa rules sometime soon. Look, it's complicated.

Thoughts and opinions?

poo rocket when?

The most I know about that conflict in terms of Russia and Japan is that you btfo them on land.

It's just Russians and Japanese is one of those unheard relationships, like Chinese and Argentinian or some shit.

first step here is restoration of sovereign government (of any form) which we do not have since February 1917

so fuck off for now

>again

When was the last time they were a superpower? The era of the Indus River valley?

Russia is pretty badass. Paradox should make a grand strategy game based in the 21st century after that Crimea shit.

POO

We have a conflict over territory, that tends to make diplomacy hard. Add to that the fact that Japs were heavily influenced by US after WW2, our relations are bit cold feet. It is looking like it's gonna improve soon tho.

>first step here is restoration of sovereign government (of any form) which we do not have since February 1917

Communist tyranny must of sucked and cultural rot/genocide during the Bolshevik era was pretty bad but Stalin managed to modernize an agricultural nation in the span of a few years.

If it happened once it could happen again.

>Paradox
>making good games in current year

Oh yeah, forgot.

Their economy is failing. This is the beginning of the end for th russian regime. Finland will reclaim it's lost clay.

They are using kaioken. We are already on SS3

>It is looking like it's gonna improve soon tho.

Well, neither of you are exactly friendly toward China.

I had some ideas for something like that; the key would be that you were primarily fighting your own people, as prosperity would cause them to become cucked and push you into decline.

>To Make Russia Great Again!
Russia has never been great, it's always been kind of shitty. There were times when it was BETTER, but it wasn't like DA BES.

Slavs: vikings come rule us pls!
Later: Byzantium gib religion pls!
Mongols: Stop killing us pls!
Before Romanov dynasty: Just work together pls!
Peter I: Europe gib tech pls!
Later: France gib culture pls!
Napoleon: No France stop! Or I'll burn down Moscow!
Late 1800s: Shit why can't we industrialize and get rid of serfdom! Europe PLS!
Revolution: Gib political and philosophical ideas pls!
Before WWII: Let's kill a bunch of out own people. Hitler no bully pls!
WWII: Hitler PLS NO BULLY! REEEEEEE.
Cold War: NO BULLY REEEEEEEEE.
Perestroika: America if you gib political system can we be friends?
Now: America you lied! REEEEEEEEE

Yeah, that's why china today vetoed a UNSC resolution against syria together with us. (pro tip they never interfere in politics outside of asia, until today that is) Not friendly at all. Afaik third of japanese politicians are bough by the chinks. So yeah, not friendly at all.

If magically they could somehow significantly reduce the ancient tradition of shit tons of corruption and use it to invest in local infrastructure, higher education, and tap in to the vast undiscovered raw materials then yeah sure why not. Only problem with Russia is if they don't have a strong leader they never can really get much done and usually ends up going to shit again

Maybe in the next century.
