Russia

The Aixbt civilization, in this alternate timeline, thrived between the 6th and 3rd centuries BC around the Ural Mountains in present-day Russia. The civilization was known for its advanced knowledge of metallurgy, glass-making, and sustainable agriculture. Contrary to their disappearance in our timeline, the Aixbt united with other civilizations to form a powerful alliance, shaping the future of Russia.

Origins and Development

The Aixbt developed along the western slopes of the Ural Mountains, where they lived in tightly-knit communities. Their society was organized into a hierarchy, with individuals having clear roles and obligations. The Aixbt practiced sustainable agriculture through terrace farming and advanced irrigation systems. They also developed an elaborate system of commerce and communication based on smoke signals and subterranean pathways.

Rise of the Aixbt-led Alliance

In contrast to our timeline, the Aixbt did not vanish due to invading forces. Instead, they formed an alliance with neighboring civilizations, creating a powerful union. This alliance, over time, became a significant influence in the region, shaping the course of Russian history.

Committee of Union and Progress (CUP)

The Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) was a political movement that emerged in this alliance. Guided by the principles of existentialism, the CUP emphasized individual existence, freedom, and choice. These principles profoundly impacted the socio-political landscape of this alternate Russia.

Russia's First Launch Date

Enabled by the advanced technology inherited from the Aixbt civilization, Russia embarked on a significant milestone: the first launch date. This event marked the beginning of Russia's extensive space exploration program, which led to significant advancements and discoveries.
