The Asian Soviet Socialist Union, commonly simply known as ASSU or the Asian Union, is a sovereign federal socialist republic situated in the north-east of Asia composed of various partially autonomous Soviet Republics defined on ethnolinguistic boundaries. The ASSU was established in 399 following the New Futurians lead by Vsevolod Sokolov seizing control of the Siberian Labour Republic due to various regions of the country falling to anti-government revolutionaries, allowing the New Futurians to exploit the power vacuum to gain control.
In 397 the collapse of The Confederacy was already well underway, especially following the secession of the Rus Federative Republic, leading to the establishment of the Rus Federation. This move however was greatly opposed by the more left-leaning Siberian federal subjects under the Rus, whom saw it as the Rus government attempting to bail on the confederacy that it itself had started. These revolutionaries soon afterwards established the All-Rus Salvation Front and launched attacks on the Rus Federation, although they failed to gain any success. Fearing a defeat, the ARSF agreed to partition the nation in two between the new Federal Republic of Tritonia in the west and the ARSF in the east, which they reorganized into the Siberian Labour Republic. This move was very unpopular in Siberia, leading to anti-war agitators assassinating the SLR's leadership in response to its signing of the treaty and subsequent militarization. Following this incident the SLR held snap elections, in which the eccentric political figure Stas Tarasov, leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party of Siberia gained power. Stas Tarasov however failed to stabilise the state due to a series of purges of influential opposition figures and cotninued militarization, leading to the Linasgrad Uprising in which anti-government forces seized control of much of the SLR's capital for several weeks before being forced to flee into the countryside. Following their escape, the anti-government forces established several insurgencies against the government, allowing the Kingdom of Yamalia to additionally secede. In response to this crisis, an emergency election was held in which Stas Tarasov was voted out of power and replaced by Vsevolod Sokolov of the RCPS's 'New Futurian' faction after gaining a narrow plurality of the votes. With swift military actions and reforms, Sokolov's government managed to put down the revolts, allowing him to move further in his political ambitions. While the New Futurians did recognise Stas Trasov's importance in ending moderate rule in Siberia, they also saw him as a flawed figure which would only lead Siberia towards another war with Tritonia, thus the New Futurians announced the total reorganization of the Siberian Labour Republic into the Asian Soviet Socialist Union, which would instead look towards its asian identity instead of its Rus one. Due to its socialist government, ASSU swiftly aligned itself to the various other socialist nations of Yata such as Yakamoto, Sizhou and Patria Grande, though with much more distant relations than with one another due to the ASSU's more utopian ideology. In its first post-war expansion in 399 the ASSU gained the former Eurasian lunar colony of Devanagrad's favour, convincing it to join them instead of Tritonia. In the same year the ASSU adopted a much more liberalized economy than its other socialist contemporaries, adopting a mixed economy in order to negate the effects of the ongoing Yatan Economic Crisis. In 402 the ASSU joined the Socialist Assembly, building closer relations with its fellow socialist nations, though this would not last forever as ASSU soon afterwards started having increasingly strained relations with Sizhou due to its pan-humanist scientific ideals conflicting with ASSU's pan-asian ultravisionary ones.
