CROK

The Cocialist Republic of Krasnogorsk, known as CROK (with the mispelling of "Socialist" being intentional), was a short-lived state located in the southeast of Initia. It lasted from the years -22 to 1

History:
Krasnogorsk was founded in the year -22, when Dmitriy Ivan, a Russian scientist working on a world cloner experiment, accidentally jumped dimensions into the world of Initia. No one else in his experiment is known to have survived.

After finding himself in the southeast of a new land, unusually with no existing country, he founded CROK at a minor village. Over the next 22 years, he expanded CROK to encompass most of the peninsula and a good amount of land north and west of it, reaching New Circassia and Cancioni-Inutilia. Krasnogorsk was also built as a capital. At the end of this, CROK joined the GDU.

CROK got into a Civil War with itself, and eventually collapsed. The land afterward was protected by peacekeeping troops from the Balkan Republic, and was temporarily annexed by them. 9 years later, an elf population would replace the BR with the new country of Gondolin.
