 A new capital city for the Novistrana governorate was built in the North of island Bukvac which was further away from possible Norwegian/Sweedish attacks and named Ekaterinburg in honor of Chaterine I. Ekaterinburg featured the duma, which was the main administrative building of the province. The duma was burnt down in the 1890's by Vladislav Dobryj (Vladislav the good) during a series of uprisings against the Russian Empire lead by him. During these uprisings an independent kingdom of Rustakiya was once again declared with the capital city returning to Tavistock. The islands of Leš and Bukvac however refused to recognise the authority of Vladislav Dobryj and the new capital. He was later captured and killed by the Imperial Russian Army and Russian rule was restored in the province.
-A Russian navy fleet was also permanently stationed on the islands making up todays Novstrana S.S.R, gradually changing the ethnic make up to mostly ethnic Russian where as the islands of Leš and Bukvas remained mostly ethnic Rustak.

 During the Russian revolution of 1917 the now mostly ethnically Russian North Western islands chose to follow the path of their fatherland and become a communist republic and part of the Soviet Union. A brief conflict erupted on the islands with the islands inhabited by the ethnic Rustaks declaring an independent capitalist country called Taviana with the capital city being Sabina. During World War 2 the island formation was overrun by the Third Reich and the local population was forced in to labour. Novistrana was freed by the Red Army towards the end of the war.

-Novistrana (Officially: Novistranskaja Sovjetskaja Socialističiskaja Respublika - NSSR - The Soviet Socialist Republic of Novistrana) is a republic consisting of the North Western most islands of the Novistrana island formation, as well as the coast of Northern Bukvac island. The capital city is Tavistok and the republic shares three land border crossings with the Taviana S.S.R on the West coast of island Bukvac.

The capital city is Tavistock and the republic shares three land border crossings with the Taviana S.S.R on the West coast of island Bukvac.
 The name 'Novistrana' translates to “new land” in Russian and was first given to the whole island formation by Catherine I, empress of the Russian Empire in the early 17th century when king Lev, son of king Solibor requested Catherine I for the kingdom (then called the kingdom of Rustakiya) to become a part of the Russian Empire after his kingdom became severely weakened following a 10 year war that king Lev's father king Solibor fought with the Prussians.

 === Sabina (Capital City) ===
-The capital and largest city in the Taviana S.S.R is Sabina. The city was founded in the year 1725 by king Solibor, following the war with Prussian invaders in which he successfully defeated the invaders by taking advantage of the islands mountainous terrain despite being outnumbered 5 to 1. The city was named after his wife Sabina who he married in the same year. Legend has it that on the site where St. Volodymyr’s church now stands, a fort used to stand in which queen Sabina was held by the Prussians and rescued by king Solibor himself. The most prominent feature of the city is the statue of Vladimir Illich Lenin in the square of the Republic erected in 1945 after the communist take over. The square of the republic is also where the notional bank of the Taviana S.S.R is located, as well as the national museum and library. The national museum was built in 1886 alongside the national university located beside it. The capital city also features the national gallery and a number of large shopping centers. Some of the more recent architectural achievements in the capital is the parliament building, based on the GDR parliament building in East Berlin and Hotel Marcomio which is the tallest structure in the city. The capital also contains a 750 meter underground tunnel complete with a train station built in 1948 by the communist party.
