	The Long March East	Division Attrition: -15.0% Surrender Limit: -30.00% Resistance Growth Speed in Our States Occupied by the Enemy: +7% Damage to Enemy Garrisons in Our States Occupied by the Enemy: +12.50% (Reichskommissariat Ukraine) Attack Bounus Against Country: +7.5% (Reichskommissariat Ukraine) Defense Bounus Against Country: +7.5% Had it not been for the explosion of the West Russian War, the Ukrainian Socialist Soviet Republic would have never had the chance to revolt against their German slave masters nearly a decade ago. Similarly, had the Wehrmacht never mobilized to combat the west Russian communists, then the U-SSR organization wouldn't have drawn the ire of a fully mobilized army. With little alternative, and armies closing on all sides, the partisans of Ukraine fled to the east and consolidated their diminished powers. Now, the time to rise has come again, and this time the U-SSR will not falter.
	Ascendancy of the Shumskyists	Daily Political Power Gain: +0.15 Resistance Growth Speed in Our States Occupied by the Enemy: +10% Since Oleksandr Shumskyi recently came to power in the U-SSR, his position has been one of great popular support, if destabilizing. As Shumsky has claimed support from Federov's clique of Generals and a great many political figures within the Congress of Soviets, the benefits have begun to make themselves clear to the fledgling nation. Through greater national unity ensured by Shumsky's supporters, the state's stability has only improved, and drastically at that.
	A Party of Many Stripes	Daily Political Power Gain -10% Resistance Growth Speed in Our States Occupied by the Enemy: +10% While still bearing the name of the KP(b)U formed by Lenin in 1918, the current Communist Party of Ukraine is in truth a chimera formed from its mergers with the UKP(borot'bists), UKP (Ukapists), and after 1939 the KPZU (Communist Party of Western Ukraine). This diverse background has led to an unusually pluralistic political culture compared to most Soviet communist parties, with diverging opinions on subjects like political organization and nationality or economic policy being commonly and openly expressed. While Shumskyi has been successful at leveraging his broad popularity among both the masses and the party to keep factionalism under control, who knows what may happen when the beloved Old Fighter's time runs out...
	The Ukrainian Workers' and Peasants' Red Army	Division Organization -15% Division Recovery Rate: -15.0% Division Attack: -20.0% Division Defence: -10.0% Max Planning: -30.0% Division Training Time: +15.0% Supply Grace: +72.0 Hour(s) Supply Consumption: -15.0% Non-Combat Out of Supply Penalties: -25.0% Encirclement Penalty: -15.0% Military Factory Output: 0% Production Efficiency Factor: 0% Formally created as a separate military upon the defeat in the West Russian War, the now-autonomous Ukrainian Red Army possesses a large portion of the old Soviet officer corps, many of which have recently returned from exile in the West Russian Revolutionary Front. While suffering from limited training and severe equipment shortages, the Ukrainian SSR's forces are far more capable of engaging the Reichskommissariat in open battle than any other partisan army.
