L'Russians

About
The L'Russians are one of the many factions on the Christin server. It is one of the biggest factions on the server and is an umbrella term for anyone that does not live in the Americas, it does not have any other role protocols and anyone meeting this criteria can get the role. A subsection of the L'Russian role, the Dutchies, is culturally specific to those in the Netherlands and makes up over a quarter of the total L'Russian population.

Name choice
The L'Russian faction gained it's name based off a bit by Kat and Khio, that listed South-East Asia as Asexia. This was later broadened to include Left Russia, Double Left Russia, South Left Russia, Lower Russia and Island Russia. The only area not included is North and South America, which are listed as Not Russia. Additionally, the L' prefix of the faction's name is a reference to the faction of L'Manberg on the Dream SMP.

Kat was given the title of L'Russian for her involvement in the faction's creation. She is one of two Americans to have the L'Russian role. The other is Bee, who was deemed an honorary L'Russian.

Colours
Previously was #FD6A02 and is now #85FFFF.

The current colour choice is a light blue, like the sky on a sunny day is the definition of continuity, no matter what happens the next day will come and go, it’s connected to how people perceive the sky, allowing you to perceive large distances and the ability to change, most often paired with change linked to broadening your horizons and experiences. Blue also is the type of colour to simulate the idea of water, the serenity of small streams as you walk through the woods, it’s peaceful and calm Next to that of course, in some areas of Left Russia, it’s considered a protective colour, also alluding to faith and devotion. All in all the current L'Russian blue stands for devotion to the cause and calm that comes with all the Not Russians going to bed
