"You won't be weak like Ukraine, but STRONG like RUSSIA!"
— taillesskangaru's friend

Ukraine is a republic definitely in Eastern Europe (except for the "Polish" western part, which is obviously in Central Europe). The country is among the wealthiest in Europe due to numerous mafia members and unfeasibly large farms, which are bigger than Earth itself since they all have at least seven dimensions. One day, Ukraine decides to invade Russia, setting off a chain of events that result in the formation of the Eastern Union.
