Vsevolod Sokolov (Born November 374) is a Siberian/Asian politician and former poet and futurologist whom was elected as the first premier of the Asian Soviet Socialist Union in 399 until the nation's defeat by the hands of the Labour Collective of Sizhou, leading to its collapse.
Sokolov was born in the southern Siberian city of Ozergorod along the coast of Lake Baikal, where he lived for most of his life. During his time in Ozergorod Sokolov was primarily a freelance poet before being swayed by the ideals of the more esoteric wings of the Confederate Communist Party, in which he became a fairly well known figure. With this position of influence in local politics he managed to gain some degree of fame as an artist and futurologist and numerologist in regions of The Confederacy until eventually the Confederacy would fall apart, thus he, alongside many of his contemporaries, split off from the CCP and joined the new Revolutionary Communist Party of Siberia in the new Siberian Labour Republic, where he served as a MP until the election of Stas Tarasov, whom promoted him to the position of 'Minister of Technology and Sciences', giving him enough power to eventually succeed Stas Tarasov as the second premier of the Siberian Labour Republic during the Siberian Revolts, which he managed to end. Promising a world perfected through the harnessing of new technologies and the democratization of knowledge, he managed to pass a law granting him additional powers that he would use to reorganize Siberia into the Asian Soviet Socialist Union, a pan-national megaproject that he deemed would be his next work. As premier, Sokolov has decided to approve and propose various projects across the territory of ASSU, Including the "Planetary Government of Yata", a "government" acting as a forum for innovators from across Yata to gain funding and support for their projects, of which he is the president. Projects such as these have gained him a very divided reputation, as many of his supporters consider him akin to a modern prophet, and his opponents considered him to be nothing more than a madman.
His first major diplomatic incident would be a conference with the Labour Collective of Sizhou where they attempted to convince him to join The Collective, which he disregarded as authoritarian nonsense, though it did regardless freak him out enough to expose the existence of The Collective to the world, leading to Sizhou building up its military on the border to the point that Sokolov felt like a war was inevitable, prompting him to order a pre-emptive strike. After a deadly war for both sides, Sokolov's ASSU was defeated by Sizhou and forced to cede much of its southern lands, causing the nation to fall into instability. Fearing the worst, Sokolov fled abroad to the Federation of Yetian Syndicates while his nation collapsed and fell to reactionaries.
After having lost power in what became Lineland, Sokolov became less relevant over time yet still active in politics, being a member of the Yatan Commonwealth's Party of Revolutionary Communists and later a member of the Democratic Labour Party of Yata-Theia's Expressive Faction, serving as a high ranking member of the party despite his age surpassing 100.
