All I can think as bad as this is that history has the Russian army and sphere of influence eventually moving through the area instead of proxies, and what worked here... won't.
But for me personally, the best part is Amir(a) and Azer's interactions.. they are real power siblings, love 'em to bits! (Joruk still the best boi tho)
Always and forever an incredible moment. I always like the women stepping in to back things up.... lord knows i'd be glued to the window too when that girl leapt down.
