What happened to mother Russia in Fallout?

Don't worry. My nation was pissed off in Call of Duty, Battlefield, Mercenaries, and countless other titles. Always the Russians. Drinking vodka and being commie. At least STALKER was plausible... Came a bit more true to us.

Yeah, Evil Russians are right next to Evil Arab Muslim Terrorists in the ''guys it's OK to kill en masse'' category for the target American audience. Just like it's OK to piss on the French and destroy Paris (both MW3 and BF3 did it, as well as a few Tom Clancy games IIRC) because losing a war makes you inept cowards for eternity, right?

Also, I doubt the creators of Fallout tought much about the exterior of America. It just seemed like what happens outside of the context of them game (either elsewhere in time or region) doesn't matter much.

I still do feel proud that my ancestors stopped the Mongol invasion, stopped Napoleon and Hitler. Three times great empires (well, not so great) tried to dominate the world, and three times they stopped at us. ;)

Yes, the only outside America source is the Avellone Bible, at least as far as I remember.
