The Nashists were run by a small committee with Nevzorov being the de jure leader, so if anyone's photo was hung on as many places in the "Republic of the Russians", it would be him, not Barkashov.

Alexander Lebed, first president of Siberian Federation
Lebed managed sneak with his company from Transnistria to Siberia. There he begun to create his own nation midst of Second Russian Civil War. Since nashis and communists were on war they couldnt' do anything and Lebed could work with his army pretty freely. Local NSF units, severe chaos in most of Siberia and even Shoigu's Tuvan army gave some challenge. Lebed too gave some support for ethnic republics. He too annexed short-lived Republic of Sakha peacefully in return giving them wide autonomy.
After 4/10 he abandoned idea of unite Russia despite some opposition. Lebed anyway stated such thing being impossible after such horrible and devastating event. Lebed led his nation slightly authotarian way altough gave people pretty much freedom. Elections anyway weren't very fair. Siberia too got lot of Russian refugees from West Russia and in 2022 it has highest population among Russian successor states. Economy too recovered quite well. Siberia had anyway rid its nuclear arsenal but it was allowed to keep its chemical arsenal but not allowed make more chemical weapons.
Lebed stepped down in 2018 but many claim that him has still lot of power behind curtains.
Image of the test of the "Father of all Bombs", tested by the Siberian Federation on September 11, 2007. Reported to be the largest non-nuclear weapon developed, the development of the Father of all Bombs is considered to be part of the Siberian Federation's program of developing thermobaric weapons after the aftermath of 4/10 led to Siberia being made to dismantle its nuclear arsenal.

Hem-Beldir, former Kyzyl, capital of Tuvan autonomous republic in Mongolia
Tuva gained briefly independence in years 1994 - 1995. It was led by corrupt and incompetent general Sergei Shoigu. He was anyway actually puppet of Mongolia. Shoigu intervened on battles with Siberia and lost war. Finally for Mongols Shoigu's incompetence was enough and they invaded and annexed Tuva and arrested Shoigu.
Tuva gained autonomy but in 2022 it doesn't mean much. Tuvan people have cultural and linguistic autonomy but not much else. Tens of thousands Tuvans moved away and Tuva has now signifant Mongol minority. There is too small Tuvan indepence movement but not one really bother with that since it is extremely obscure movement.

A still frame of Scarlett Johansson as Janet Van Dyne / The Wasp enjoying a romantic moment with Hank Pym / Ant-Man (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Whirlwind’s Revenge (2018), the 20th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) directed by Adam McKay. The Wasp is a former SHIELD agent and founding member of the Avengers who utilizes her sizeshifting and bioelectric technology to protect the world alongside her husband, former thief Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) and Bill Foster / Goliath (Aldis Hodges). But the Wasp is not always invincible as she has a (initially) strained relationship with her father Vernon (Michael Douglas) ever since the death of her mother Alicia. The character made her debut in 2010’s Iron Man 2 though most didn’t know this at the time until the last few scenes of the movie as she assumed the identity of Tony Stark’s (Robert Downey Jr.) new secretary “Bethany Cabe” (a reference to a character from the comics) for much of her screen time though there were hints about her true identity sprinkled through the film prior to the reveal. Afterwards, the Wasp would go on to appear in more MCU films with Ant-Man which included Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), The Avengers (2012), Thor: Hela’s Conquest (2013; illusion only), Avengers: Ultron’s Crusade (2015), Ant-Man and the Wasp (2015), Captain America: Madbomb (2016), Spider-Man: First Semester (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Final War (2019). Following the events of Final War, Johansson reprised her role as the Wasp in other MCU projects such as What If…? (2021) and Ant-Man and the Wasp: The Quantum Crisis (2023) with the latter seeing Van Dyne serve as a mentor to her young daughter Hope aka Ant-Girl and dealing with not just the threat of Kang the Conqueror (Matt Smith) but the death of Hank who made the difficult choice to sacrifice himself so she could obtain the Soul Stone on Vormir.
In a 2015 interview with the media outlet MTV promoting Ultron's Crusade, Johansson revealed that Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion was an inspiration for the character specifically as he was depicted in the 1997 film The End of Evangelion citing Janet’s teenage debut as a SHIELD agent at the age of 17 and her conflicted relationship with her father. She also added that the guilt of Van Dyne and Pym over the death of their best friend Maria Trovaya at the hands of a brainwashed Bucky (Sebastian Stan) and her nationality being changed from Hungarian to Russian was influenced by the Second Russian Civil War, an event in which the half-Jewish Johansson watched closely as a child from her shock that neo-Nazis were marching on the streets of Moscow to ending up in the subways of New York City with her family during 4/10. She has also said that she is glad that the world didn’t come to an end and that her character’s guilt of failing to save Maria from HYDRA was “the world not doing enough to stop the Fascists and the Communists in Russia”.
South Korean director Bong Joon-ho at the premiere of Vladivostok (Beulladiboseutokeu), a 2013 war film about the Miracle of Vladivostok starring Vladimir Mashkov, Yuri Kolokolnikov, Song Kang-ho (a Joon-ho regular), Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Steven Yeun, Gal Gadot, Oded Fehr, Hiroyuki Sanada and Haruma Miura. The film was an international co-production between South Korea, Japan, the Far East, Israel and the United States which told the stories of the men and women who fought against North Korea during this fateful battle that ensured the Far Eastern Kingdom (FEK) would not be wiped from the face of the Earth. Joon-ho, like so many others, was shocked and scared at the events transpiring in Russia followed by the North Korean invasion of the Far East and the destructive event that was 4/10 where he along with his family hid in the Seoul Subway to avoid perishing in the initial strikes which did not hit Seoul. 4/10 was as Joon-ho put it "The darkest day in not just my life but the entire world". These events in Russia shaped Joon-ho and when he began his directing career he wanted to make a motion picture about the Battle of Vladivostok though it would come to fruition only after completing the WW2 sexual slavery drama Pain (Tongjeung) in 2009, a film that was partially inspired by the infamous Fascist-run rape camps of the Second Russian Civil War in it's depiction of Korean "comfort women".
Vladivostok was one of Joon-ho’s most ambitious projects with a budget of $85 million and with an international cast to boot. The film would be shot for four months in the titular Far Eastern city with period authentic equipment, clothing and decommissioned air carriers to accurately portray the battle. The dialogue was also multilingual as one would expect from a five nation collaboration with Korean, Russian, Hebrew, Japanese and English heard throughout. Joon-ho has said that the film "was a homage to the brave souls that perished in the struggle against the tyrannical Kim dynasty". Indeed, during the film's credits there is a message that reads "In memory of the men and women who defended Vladivostok from Kim Jong-il" in the five languages spoken by the main characters individually.
Upon release, Vladivostok was praised by many critics for it's direction, acting performances, battle sequences, cinematography and the handling of it's subject matter. The film was commercially successful, grossing $486 million on it's $95 million budget. However, Vladivostok stirred up controversy in China and North Korea over it's depiction of the North Korean soldiers invading the Far East which led to the film's ban in both countries. Nevertheless, Vladivostok is seen by many as one of the best Second Russian Civil War films and a classic for future generations.
Kenta Izumi, Prime Minister of Japan as of 2022. Izumi succeeded Katsuya Okada as Prime Minister of Japan in the 2021 general election of July 15th, also the April 17th, Democratic Party of Japan Presidency election. Okada was moved by his predecessor’s long term serving 10 years as Prime Minister, the longest Prime Minister of Japan and one of the most important transformative PM’s in the nation’s history, one that many consider as important as Ryutaro Hashimoto and his successor, Junichiro Koizumi.
Izumi vowed to continue the international policies of his predecessor to push Japan as an anti-nuclear weapon state but a nation willing to defend herself twenty five years after 4/10. He also vowed for a Japan that was dedicated to peace but maintain it’s commitments to the Quad with South Korea, the Far East and Taiwan to counter potential Chinese aggression after their annexation of Hong Kong in 2019. 4/10 transformed Japanese politics in which after the initial shock it made people more active in politics where before a political malaise had been present for decades. One reform the Liberal Democrats had to concede to with their own reformers had urged the move away from the NSF-esque ultranationalist groups due to having a similar ideology with a regime that had caused so much suffering around the world. While there were some LDP members who left the party, many stayed. This resulted in the loss of Tokyo Governor election in 1999 of Shintaro Ishihara, a peer of failed 1970 coup plotter Yukio Mishima. The LDP was forced on an odd path that mixed increased defense but with domestic political moderation. They also opened up their borders to migrants after pressure from the Gore Administration.
The Liberal Democratic Party remained in power until a vote of no confidence in 2006 leading to the July election of that year. This was caused by the failure of the government to cooperate with the House of Councillors due to Izumi’s DPJ having a majority in that chamber in 2004. Koizumi had been Prime Minister for three years when he was forced out in the snap election. The DPJ’s newfound power after 4/10 helped pave the way for Izumi to become Prime Minister. Izumi has a hard challenge ahead as he faces an LDP resurgence and a Japanese economy that has begun to slow after the economic revitalization in 2005.

Sarajevo, capital of Bosnia
Bosnia suffered from horrible civil war on early 1990's. With support of NATO it Bosnian Muslims anyway managed to win the war and most of Bornian Croats and Serbs fled to Croatia and Serbia. Bosnia remained many years quite poor but managed to recover and joined to NATO in 1999. Later it too joined to EU. In 2022 Bosnia is pretty well recovered from war and Muslims are majority religion of the ocuntry but there is still notable Croat and Serb minorities.
Kim Jong-il acted as leader of North Korea inyears 1994 - 1995. He made fatal decision to intervene to Second Russian Civil War and invaded Far Eastern Republic. The Battle of Vladivostok anyway was total disaster and Kim lost good part of his invasion army. China became really frustrated about such stunt and invaded North Korea. War was brief and even more disastrous for North Korea. The country already suffered from severe famine which just worsened due the invasion. When PLA was marching to Pyongjang, Kim tried escape the city but he was killed with machine gun and new government took power and sued peace with China.
Nowadays Kim Jong-il is seen in bad light pretty much by everybody regardless one's political views. But North Korean still see their first leader and Kim Jong-il's father Kim Il-sung. Kim Jong-il's children were barred from held any political positions and not allowed even to enter to army.
Jang Song-thaek, current leader of North Korea (actually just puppet of China)
Jang Song-thaek was brother-in-law of his predecessor Kimg Jong-il and son-in-law of Kim Il-sung, founder of communist Korea. Already soon after disaster at Vladivostok Jang became totally disillusioned with Kim and basically begun turn against Kim. Division between Kim and politbyroo just grew after China invaded the country. Pro-China Jang commited coup and killed Kim. Him became new leader of the country with approval of China.
Jang Song-thaek became effectively Chinese puppet. Him had dissolve and re-organise North Korean army. Nowadays it is only just somehow good enough to defend the country and it is mean is basically act as cannon fedder. Jang too made several other reforms speciality on agriculture which eased greatly famines. He too commited some very small economic reforms. But North Korea is still one of least free and most oppressive nations. It is too still very closed country where to tourists can't come easily and citizens can't get out there. NK too has very strickt censorship over Internet and other media.
Author’s Note: This was very hard for me to write but I feel something like this could’ve happened with all the other nastiness going on in Russia ITTL.
Infamous Soviet, later Russian, serial killer, rapist, & pedophile Igor Anatolievich Irtyshov aka “The Krasnodar Devil” who would stand trial at The Hague during the United Nations War Crimes Tribunal for Russia (UNWCTR) in 2000.
Irtyshov was born on August 16, 1971, in the Krasnodar Krai. He grew up in a dysfunctional family, with both his mother and father being alcoholics. When he was 10 he got into a car accident and got a serious craniocerebral injury as a result. He did not recover from the consequences: he was diagnosed with "an intellectual disability in the degree of moderate debility", after which his mother sent him to a special boarding school, in which Irtyshov was raped.
After the boarding school he graduated from a vocational school. In 1993 he moved to Petrograd, where he got a job as a dishwasher at the "Pegasus" coffeehouse, but his main source of income was homosexual prostitution. He was quite popular among his clients for his sadistic inclinations and also was noted for hysteria, egocentrism and cowardice. Igor did not consider himself a homosexual, as he also had sex with women.
Irtyshov was a Soviet, later Russian, serial killer rapist, & pedophile nicknamed “The Krasdonar Devil” who original sexually assaulted, murdered, and mutilated at least 9 young boys (oldest being 15) between 1993 and 1994 in the Russian SFSR, specifically Petrograd. On the streets and in the newspapers of Petrograd, the rapist's facial composite and his verbal description were distributed. Irtyshov was frightened: the composite was very similar to him, which forced him to flee to Murmansk. A month later, having decided that everything had quieted down, Igor returned to Petrograd and on November 28, 1994 he able to evade law enforcement agencies, which by that time had amassed a vast amount of evidence against him, due to the burgeoning chaos as Russia entered its second civil war – Irtyshov would flee southwards to join the Soviet Republic out of opportunism and to not face jail time or execution.
Irtyshov would eventually meet Communist leadership in Stalingrad (formerly Volgograd) and impress the ever increasingly paranoid and incompetent General Secretary Viktor Ivanovich Anpilov with his commitment to Soviet Communism (he didn’t have any and rather effectively lied) and would keep his criminal record a secret from the Politburo least one of the Politburo members convince Anpilov otherwise. Irtyshov would be named the new mayor of Krasnodar, the capital of his home province, in November of 1994 (Krasnodar is a city in the south of European Russia that was destroyed by the Germans in WWII but was later rebuilt). Months into his rule over Krasnodar the city became fenced in with barbed wire, guard towers, and martial law along with a curfew was declared. This was ostensibly to guard the city and its inhabitants from ethnic separatist and/or Nashi attack though the citizenry of Krasnodar soon found out the real reason why they were fenced in and not allowed to leave the city. Irtyshov as mayor staffed the upper echelons of his administration, the so-called “Krasnodar Metropolitan Protection Centre (KMPC)” with any criminal from the Stalingrad area no matter their gender or crime.
The criminals-turned-administrators made Krasnodar a living nightmare and a hell on earth with whole neighbourhoods of the city becoming de facto rape camps not unlike those in Nashi-controlled areas (though Irtyshov would decree that all boys in these neighbourhoods ranging from the ages of 10 to 15 were to be brought to him) while others became scenes of mass extortion/theft and forced labour or extermination camps with the subway tunnels being a dumping ground for dead bodies and a couple of medical and psychiatric hospitals were used as torture centres . With all this going on many residents would ask themselves, “Why didn’t the Krasnodar police do anything about these criminals or why did so many officers of the law collaborate with the monsters now controlling our city?” Indeed those two questions were also asked by The Hague when several Krasnodar policemen were brought in to stand trial as well as testify. When word of the atrocities got to Anpilov, the dictator by now too far gone into purge-happy paranoia, dismissed the reports as “fascist and/or western imperialist propaganda and that Irtyshov was a fine and model communist working hard for the new Soviet Revolution.” After which those who told him about these atrocities were summarily executed.
The answers to those questions included but weren’t limited to; corruption, sadism/psychopathy on the part of some officers, the simple will to survive and/or keep their loved ones alive, or an even more simpler reason….fear. Fear of their new criminal overlords, fear of the KGB acting as bodyguards and ground troops/enforcers for the Irtyshov Administration (who feared their new boss themselves).
The mayor’s office in Krasnodar became Irtyshov’s headquarters and was the site of many horrors too gruesome to mention. Krasnodar, unlike many places in Red-controlled areas was completely and utterly untouched by nuclear weapons or their fallout. Instead of being obliterated by nukes it was liberated by NATO forces on December 24, 1996 after a few days of vicious fighting between the Krasnodar defenders (KGB security troops plus the Krasnodar police department) the invading soldiers were led by Canadian Lieutenant General Roméo Antonius Dallaire, who was force commander for the ill-fated UNAMIR mission in Rwanda and bore witness to the Rwandan Genocide and tried his best to stem the tide of violence and chaos but to no avail. His leading of the NATO force to liberate Krasnodar was in his words “atonement for my failures in Rwanda” and saying in a 2001 Fox News interview “I failed to save the Tutsi and moderate Hutus of Rwanda in their hour of need, so like hell I was going to let the people of Krasnodar befall a similar fate!”
Krasnodar-1 a former train station in Krasnodar, one of the many sites of horrors in the city during the 1990s – the outside of the building remains intact as a reminder of the horrors that the Krasnodar Devil and his associates visited upon the city, the interior remains in the exact same horrifying state that it was in 1997 when the impromptu torture centre was liberated by NATO forces.
Indeed, Irtyshov & his associates were planning to liquidate the entire city of its inhabitants and claim that they themselves were the sole survivors of a Red nuclear attack. Dallaire’s forces were able to stop Irtyshov’s machinations and Dallaire himself captured the Krasnodar Devil as the latter tried to escape. Near Irtyshov’s large desk, Dallaire and some of the NATO troops with him at the time heard whimpers of three individuals coming from beneath the desk – they discovered a thirty year old mother with her two children (one a sixteen year teenage girl and the other a ten year boy) huddled together terrified and crying with bruises, cuts, sores, other signs of beatings evident on the mother and daughter (who were both protecting the boy, who also looked like had been beaten and raped, as best they could). In the corner of the room was a mutilated body of a man no older than thirty-two, he was quickly deduced to be the father and patriarch of the family and had probably tried to stop Irtyshov from harming his family only to be vicious and sadistically murdered then mutilated by Irtyshov or one of his three subordinates who were also present in the office. The most commonly accepted number of deaths that the Irtyshov Administration inflicted upon the city of Krasnodar between the years of 1994 and 1997 is sixty-three thousand (with the number of boys he raped and/or killed being in the hundreds), that’s ten percent of the city’s pre-Irtyshov population – if one doesn’t count deaths from starvation, cannibalism, or disease.
Irtyshov would be executed in The Hague rather than sentenced to life in prison, with the only other known war criminal of the Second Russian Civil War to have that fate being Roman Burtsev, both were executed by hanging. The testimonies of Irtyshov’s personal victims, including his last three (the-then thirty year mother and her two children), were instrumental in the changing of the man’s sentencing.
To the day of his death the monster of a man known as “The Krasnodar Devil” remained unrepentant and the name Igor Anatolievich Irtyshov still haunts the people of Krasnodar to this very day. Tsar Nicholas III of House Romanov has said that Irtyshov has gone down in the history of Russia as one of the most evil people ever to exist and that he was the most monstrous and prolific serial killer in the history of the world and that it’ll take decades for the city (Krasnodar) to recover from the pain and suffering that Irtyshov put it through. In August of 2000, the city was handed over to the Republic of Circassia by NATO administration.
Lt. Gen. Romeo Dallaire, one of the force commanders for the United Nations Assistance Mission for Russia (UNAMIRU) in the late nineties and early two thousands, he led the NATO liberation of Krasnodar and the personal arrest of Igor Anatolievich Irtyshov – he is known in Krasnodar as “God’s Heart” and the “Saviour of Krasnodar” (circa 2008).

Irtyshov would be named the new mayor of Krasnodar, the capital of his home province, in November of 1994 (Krasnodar is a city in the south of European Russia that was destroyed by the Germans in WWII but was later rebuilt). Months into his rule over Krasnodar the city became fenced in with barbed wire, guard towers, and martial law along with a curfew was declared. This was ostensibly to guard the city and its inhabitants from ethnic separatist and/or Nashi attack though the citizenry of Krasnodar soon found out the real reason why they were fenced in and not allowed to leave the city. Irtyshov as mayor staffed the upper echelons of his administration, the so-called “Krasnodar Metropolitan Protection Centre (KMPC)” with any criminal from the Stalingrad area no matter their gender or crime.
The criminals-turned-administrators made Krasnodar a living nightmare and a hell on earth with whole neighbourhoods of the city becoming de facto rape camps not unlike those in Nashi-controlled areas (though Irtyshov would decree that all boys in these neighbourhoods ranging from the ages of 10 to 15 were to be brought to him) while others became scenes of mass extortion/theft and forced labour or extermination camps with the subway tunnels being a dumping ground for dead bodies and a couple of medical and psychiatric hospitals were used as torture centres . With all this going on many residents would ask themselves, “Why didn’t the Krasnodar police do anything about these criminals or why did so many officers of the law collaborate with the monsters now controlling our city?” Indeed those two questions were also asked by The Hague when several Krasnodar policemen were brought in to stand trial as well as testify. When word of the atrocities got to Anpilov, the dictator by now too far gone into purge-happy paranoia, dismissed the reports as “fascist and/or western imperialist propaganda and that Irtyshov was a fine and model communist working hard for the new Soviet Revolution.” After which those who told him about these atrocities were summarily executed.
The answers to those questions included but weren’t limited to; corruption, sadism/psychopathy on the part of some officers, the simple will to survive and/or keep their loved ones alive, or an even more simpler reason….fear. Fear of their new criminal overlords, fear of the KGB acting as bodyguards and ground troops/enforcers for the Irtyshov Administration (who feared their new boss themselves).
The mayor’s office in Krasnodar became Irtyshov’s headquarters and was the site of many horrors too gruesome to mention. Krasnodar, unlike many places in Red-controlled areas was completely and utterly untouched by nuclear weapons or their fallout. Instead of being obliterated by nukes it was liberated by NATO forces on December 24, 1996 after a few days of vicious fighting between the Krasnodar defenders (KGB security troops plus the Krasnodar police department) the invading soldiers were led by Canadian Lieutenant General Roméo Antonius Dallaire, who was force commander for the ill-fated UNAMIR mission in Rwanda and bore witness to the Rwandan Genocide and tried his best to stem the tide of violence and chaos but to no avail. His leading of the NATO force to liberate Krasnodar was in his words “atonement for my failures in Rwanda” and saying in a 2001 Fox News interview “I failed to save the Tutsi and moderate Hutus of Rwanda in their hour of need, so like hell I was going to let the people of Krasnodar befall a similar fate!”
Krasnodar-1 a former train station in Krasnodar, one of the many sites of horrors in the city during the 1990s – the outside of the building remains intact as a reminder of the horrors that the Krasnodar Devil and his associates visited upon the city, the interior remains in the exact same horrifying state that it was in 1997 when the impromptu torture centre was liberated by NATO forces.
Indeed, Irtyshov & his associates were planning to liquidate the entire city of its inhabitants and claim that they themselves were the sole survivors of a Red nuclear attack. Dallaire’s forces were able to stop Irtyshov’s machinations and Dallaire himself captured the Krasnodar Devil as the latter tried to escape. Near Irtyshov’s large desk, Dallaire and some of the NATO troops with him at the time heard whimpers of three individuals coming from beneath the desk – they discovered a thirty year old mother with her two children (one a sixteen year teenage girl and the other a ten year boy) huddled together terrified and crying with bruises, cuts, sores, other signs of beatings evident on the mother and daughter (who were both protecting the boy, who also looked like had been beaten and raped, as best they could). In the corner of the room was a mutilated body of a man no older than thirty-two, he was quickly deduced to be the father and patriarch of the family and had probably tried to stop Irtyshov from harming his family only to be vicious and sadistically murdered then mutilated by Irtyshov or one of his three subordinates who were also present in the office. The most commonly accepted number of deaths that the Irtyshov Administration inflicted upon the city of Krasnodar between the years of 1994 and 1997 is sixty-three thousand (with the number of boys he raped and/or killed being in the hundreds), that’s ten percent of the city’s pre-Irtyshov population – if one doesn’t count deaths from starvation, cannibalism, or disease.
Irtyshov would be executed in The Hague rather than sentenced to life in prison, with the only other known war criminal of the Second Russian Civil War to have that fate being Roman Burtsev, both were executed by hanging. The testimonies of Irtyshov’s personal victims, including his last three (the-then thirty year mother and her two children), were instrumental in the changing of the man’s sentencing.
To the day of his death the monster of a man known as “The Krasnodar Devil” remained unrepentant and the name Igor Anatolievich Irtyshov still haunts the people of Krasnodar to this very day. Tsar Nicholas III of House Romanov has said that Irtyshov has gone down in the history of Russia as one of the most evil people ever to exist and that he was the most monstrous and prolific serial killer in the history of the world and that it’ll take decades for the city (Krasnodar) to recover from the pain and suffering that Irtyshov put it through. In August of 2000, the city was handed over to the Republic of Circassia by NATO administration.
Lt. Gen. Romeo Dallaire, one of the force commanders for the United Nations Assistance Mission for Russia (UNAMIRU) in the late nineties and early two thousands, he led the NATO liberation of Krasnodar and the personal arrest of Igor Anatolievich Irtyshov – he is known in Krasnodar as “God’s Heart” and the “Saviour of Krasnodar” (circa 2008).

As horrifying a Nazi as Barkashov is, I don't see him being evil in that particular way so as to leave ethnic Russians in squalor as brutal as Chikatilo and his gang murder-fucking their way into administrating the city. That motherfucker saw himself as some sort of a messiah - a man with a genuine mission - and so, would at least try to use much more "conventional" brutality in stamping down Russian dissenters.
If anything, Chikatilo is going be sent to the front to dish out terror, or assigned to lesser-known concentration camp as an administrator, where literally no one will care about his deeds aside from the eventual trial at The Hague.
On the other hand, I can see Anpilov - as incompetent as he is purge-happy - being haphazard enough to not care about something exactly like this happening.

Good point, I’ll change to Chikatilo joining the Soviet Republic and being given command of a city under Red control.
Author’s Note: This was very hard for me to write but I feel something like this could’ve happened with all the other nastiness going on in Russia ITTL.
Infamous Soviet, later Russian, serial killer Andrei Romanovich Chikatilo aka Rostov Ripper circa 2000 in a holding cell at The Hague during the United Nations War Crimes Tribunal for Russia (UNWCTR).
Chikatilo was born on 16 October 1936 and being a survivor of the Holodomor live was harsh for Chikatilo however despite this by his teens, Chikatilo was both a model student and an ardent communist. He was appointed editor of his school newspaper at age 14 and chairman of the pupils' Communist Party committee two years later. An avid reader of communist literature, he was also delegated the task of organizing street marches. Although Chikatilo claimed learning did not come easy to him due to headaches and a poor memory, he was the only student from his collective farm to complete the final year of study, graduating with excellent grades in 1954. Chikatilo chose to enroll as a correspondence student at Rostov University in 1964, studying Russian literature and philology; he obtained his degree in these subjects in 1970. Shortly before obtaining his degree, Chikatilo obtained a job managing regional sports activities. He remained in this position for one year, before beginning his career as a teacher of Russian language and literature in Novoshakhtinsk.
Chikatilo was largely ineffective as a teacher; although knowledgeable in the subjects he taught, he was seldom able to maintain discipline in his classes and was regularly subjected to mockery by his students who, he claimed, took advantage of his modest nature.
Chikatilo was a Soviet, later Russian, serial killer nicknamed “The Butcher of Rostov”, “The Rostov Ripper”, “The Red Ripper”, and “Kotlas Devil” who sexually assaulted, murdered, and mutilated at least fifty-two women and children between 1978 and 1990 in the Russian SFSR, the Ukrainian SSR, and the Uzbek SSR. Chikatilo confessed to fifty-six murders and was tried for fifty-wthree of them in April 1992. He was convicted and sentenced to death for fifty-two of these murders in October 1992, although the Supreme Court of Russia ruled in 1993 that insufficient evidence existed to prove his guilt in nine of those killings.
Chikatilo would’ve been executed in February 1994 if it wasn’t for the collapse of Russia into a second civil war, in the initial chaos that was the Moscow prison system - Chikatilo and 165 other criminals escaped the prison with a third of them joining the Soviet Republic of Russia, another third going independent (ie back to criminal activities), and the final third joining the Ultranationalist/Nashi Republic of the Russians (ROtR). Chikatilo would be one of these 54 criminals to join the ROtR, by the time of NSF took over Russia in 1993 Chikatilo had become completely disillusioned with communism and instead became a ardent Ultranationalist in the extreme.
Chikatilo would eventually meet the ruling Nashi council and impress Alexander Petrovich Barkashov, leader of the RNU paramilitaries with his intelligence, commitment to the Russian nation and Russian Peoples, as well as his ruthlessness and criminal record. The Butcher of Rostov would be named the new mayor of and Komendant of Kotlas in November of 1994 (Kotlas is a city in the north of European Russia that was the site of the infamous Kotlas Gulag during the Stalin Era of the USSR), months into his rule over Kotlas the city itself along with the old gulag camp becoming became fenced in with barbed wire, guard towers erected, and martial law along with a curfew de– ostensibly to guard the city and its inhabitants from ethnic separatists or Red Army attack though the citizenry of Kotlas soon found out why they were fenced and not allowed to leave the city. Chikatilo as Komendant staffed the upper echelons of the so-called “Kotlas Metropolitan Protection Centre (KMPC)” with his fellow Moscow escapees as well as any criminal from the Petrograd and Kotlas areas no matter their gender or crime.
The criminals-turned-administrators turned Kotlas into a living nightmare with whole neighbourhoods of the city becoming de facto rape camps while others became forced labour camps or extermination camps with the subway station and tunnels being areas where dead bodies were dumped. With all this going on many residents would ask themselves, “Why didn’t the Kotlas police do anything about these criminals and why did so many officers of the law collaborate with the monsters now controlling our city?” Indeed those two questions asked by The Hague when several Kotlas policemen were brought in to stand trial as well as testify.
The answers to those questions included but weren’t limited to; corruption, sadism/psychopathy on the part of some officers, the simple will to survive or keep their loved ones alive, or an even more simpler reason….fear. Fear of their new criminal overlords, fear of the RNU and other smaller Nashi paramilitaries acting as bodyguards and ground troops for the Chikatilo Administration.
The mayor’s office of Kotlas became Chikatilo’s headquarters was the site of many horrors too gruesome to mention. Kotlas, unlike many places in Nashi-controlled areas was completely and utterly untouched by nuclear weapons or their fallout.

Former headquarters of the Pechora Railway in Kotlas, one of the many sites of horrors in Kotlas during the 1990s – the outside of the building remains intact as a reminder of the horrors that the Kotlas Devil and his associates visited upon the city, the interior remains in the exact same horrifying state that it was in 1997 when the impromptu torture centre was liberated by NATO forces.

Near Chikatilo’s large desk, Dallaire and some of the Canadian peacekeepers with him at the time heard whimpers of three individuals coming from beneath the desk – they discovered a thirty year old mother with two little girls (one twelve and the other eight) huddled together terrified and crying with bruises, cuts, sores, other signs of rape evident on all three. In the corner of the room was a mutilated body of man no older than thirty-two, he was quickly deduced to be the father and patriarch of the family and had probably tried to stop Chikatilo from harming his family only be vicious and sadistically murdered then mutilated by Chikatilo or one of his three subordinates who were also present in the office. The most commonly accepted number of deaths that the Chikatilo Administration inflicted upon the city of Kotlas between the years of 1994 and 1997 is 14,000 – that’s twenty percent of the city’s pre-Chikatilo population if one doesn’t count deaths from starvation, cannibalism, or disease.
Chikatilo would be executed in The Hague rather than sentenced to life in prison, one of the few war criminals of Second Russian Civil War to have that fate, he was executed by lethal injection. To the day of his death the monster of a man known as “The Butcher of Rostov”, “The Rostov Ripper”, “The Red Ripper”, and “Kotlas Devil” remained unrepentant reportedly dying with a smile on his face. Chikatilo would be a minor inspiration for Mark Hamill in his 2010 role as the Joker in the DC Cinematic Universe live-action film “Laughing Matters”.
And the name Andrei Romanovich Chikatilo still haunts the people of Kotlas to this very day. Tsar Nicholas III of House Romanov has said that Chikatilo has gone down in the history of Russia as one of the most evil people ever to exist and that he was the most monstrous and prolific serial killer in the history of the world.

I am not sure if ICC would ever decide take death penalty on usage even with most horrible people. Probably the Hague would still throw Chikatilo to prison rest of his life. In prison his life could be still pretty long. These are pretty dangerous for Chikatilo like people and he might face some "accident".
And even if ICC decides to take death penalty, I think than more plausible method would be hanging. Lethal injection is pretty American style execution method and not sure if it has ever used outside of USA.
Alright I changed Chikatilo to a communist along with other things. I changed his sentencing to being hanged.
The civil war only really begun in the latter part of 1994, so Chikatilo probably still gets a bullet to the back of the head as his execution would have been during the short period between the NSF taking over the country and Russia’s collapse in October-November.
