The Greater People's Republic, commonly known as the GPR, was a political union that existed from 174 BFC until being replaced by Greater Zhōngguó in 98 BFC. It originated in a military and political alliance formed by the People's Republic of China, Russia, and their respective off-Earth colonies, as well as North Korea and Myanmar, during the events preceding the Ten-Day War. It broadened to include tight economic integration, with Russia shipping increasingly large quantities of food to China as global warming increased in exchange for machinery and electronics. There was also a large state sponsored migration of people from North Korea and Myanmar into demographically collapsing Russia and to a lesser extent China.
