place. Proud capital of the newly liberated Republic of
Russian Ukraine. Putingrad is renowned the
world over for its unparalleled
history of artistic and scientific endeavour and above all its dedication to freedom, democracy and peaceful co-existence. Since 1240, when Batu Khan and the Mongols visited briefly and returned
home with happy memories and bulging loot bags, Putingrad has been a must-see destination for hordes of all stripes. Near enough to Chernobyl that amusingly deformed wildlife abounds, yet far enough from Moldova that amusingly deformed people are scarce, Putingrad nestles in the heart of uklear trench land. Grain, grain combines, grain fertilizers, gravel, disused missile silos and scattered
bomb craters abound as subjects for photographers and an abundance of Cossack dancers and nesting oligarch dolls offer endless entertainment for flak-jacketed holidaymakers. An interactive interpretive centre under construction
will explain how Putingrad, despite an overwhelming volume of evidence to the contrary, has
always been a part of mother Russia.

Load up the troika kiddies, we are going to Putingrad for the weekend!
Should I bring toilet
paper, iodine
pills, a Bren
gun, and money for bribes?
Nyet! Putingrad is part of the glorious Russian Empire.
