MOSKOVA

Outside the city of Moskova are fifty suburbs. In these suburbs live an estimated 40 million people, who make an average of Ƶ90,200 a year, slightly higher than the national average of Ƶ86,700. A majority of these people head to work in Moskova, which has 40 million people as well. This causes major traffic problems despite the closest suburbs being only 10 miles away, forcing people to leave as early as four in the morning.

However, for the last several months, there has been a large influx of people coming to this area. This influx, which is around a million people, has drawn the attention of the Secret Commando Service (SCS)[75], who believe that a majority of the influx is orchestrated by the Gewerksma. They fear that the Gewerksma are planning a major attack, a hypothesis not given much credibility until the raid in Zok revealed the stockpile of weapons. It was only after that raid that the government granted the SCS a select few warrants to survey people they suspect are Neo-Demokrists working for the Gewerksma.

Since being granted the warrants, they have spied on these select individuals, watching them closely. However, they have yet to find any evidence they are collaborating with the Gewerksma, a premise they still believe in and fear. Not even the Regiment, the Empire’s largest militia, has reported anything that would have alerted the government of the Gewerksma’s activity. Many within the Intelligence Community have asked for greater surveillance power, only to be turned down due to the Golden Civic Government refusing to grant them such power. This fear is real as the Gewerksma have in fact been moving personnel, vehicles, and weapons into the Moskova area, preparing for the Final Draft.

To leadership, the Final Draft is a last-ditch effort to take down the Empire, given their dwindling financial position due to the Accounting Accountability Act (AAA). Before the passing of the AAA, a group known as the Mittarbe[76] helped finance them from 2040 to 2055. This group consisted of thirty multi-billionaires, who funneled money and supplies through miscellaneous accounts disguised as donations to non-profit organizations, reviving the Gewerksma. This financial aid significantly helped them as they re-armed themselves and created new propaganda to recruit new members.

However, the accountants would eventually learn of the crimes their bosses were committing. Weary and fearful they would be tried for aiding a terrorist organization, they came forward to the government and revealed the irregular accounting practices. This prompted the government to arrest these individuals and seize their assets, even going as far as launching additional military operations against the Gewerksma.

Immediately, the Gewerksma lost its biggest source of revenue, prompting them to turn to the black market for help. However, most of those routes of revenue would be closed when the government passed the AAA, which led to further government involvement in accounting, leading to more assets being seized and Vorhs being captured. The only route that survived was from The Speaker, although this individual’s
