Magadan Magadan was hardly a city by world standards, it was more like an industrial park. It's gray apartment building and factories where joyless monuments to this cold harsh land, and its people who stood like the gray walls of this city. The Dominion spent a good amount of effort and time into improving this city's production levels, for most of the year it lay hidden from bombers under storms of snow and ice. But they failed to do one very important thing in this land, keep it's inhabitants on their side. It's people could tolerate the brutal winters, since there was nothing to do about them but tolerate, but they could not tolerate the Dominion soldiers who treated them poorly. Men would disappear in blizzards all the time, vehicles would be lost to the white outs. But this was on a small scale, until the Dominion started losing. The people knew this, they listened on their illegal radios, heard the reports. The rumors of the Dominion's defeat circled amongst the people who wondered when their liberation would come. To many it would not come soon enough, or to others it would not be liberation, merely exchanging one conqueror for another. So fear, anxiety, hope and anger all found a place, and it was in these that the people found a new idea. Their own soldiers. Their own voice. Their own leaders. Their own liberation. And amid these cries there rose one voice that stung like a cold northern wind. He spoke of Marx, equality, power and a glorious future. His name was Maksym Zakhaev.

Maksym Zakhaev's words struck a chord, partially because the citizens of this area where ethnic Russians (Like him) and partially because they missed the glory days of the USSR. Riots began in Magadan, and the surrounding areas, but Dominion soldiers where able to keep the Communist in check. While the Communist where strong in spirit and numbers, they lacked the weapons and tools of war. So Dominion soldiers, though outnumbered, where able to keep a hold on the cities, until Communist forces seized part of the factory district in a bloody struggle. With plenty of eager labor, the factories began to spew out weapons, tanks and other items of war, day and night. The tide had turned, now the Dominion forces where overwhelmed by hoards of angry Communist, seeking revenge for the injustices done to them. Dominion soldier's bodies where hung from buildings and buried in frozen, mass graves. Little mercy was shown to the Dominion soldiers, and the few who escaped from the cities and coastal areas found them selves wandering the frozen waste of Siberia, who was no kinder them than the Communist. ____________ But not all of Maksym Zakhaev's speeches found eager ears, the natives who lived further north showed no interest in his cause. Rumors of the warlike culture of these people existed amongst the Soviets, and they called them Mongolian demons who came back from hell to rebuild their ancient empire. So the Soviets who hugged the coast feared these strange people, and little interaction ever occurred between these two groups. The Communist revolution spread no further than the ethnic Russian lands, and Communist forces patrolled the ethnic boarder between the two with great caution.
