Perfect, except we should IMO do away with the name “Russia” so that it can be forgotten in history like other old “empires”.
Denuclerisation + protection à la west germany for 50 years.

Russia should just be called Rus, to get back to their small time roots.
The name you’re looking for is Muscovy.
No, I’m thinking of Rus’ or, more specifically, Kyivan Rus’.
Why would you want to saddle the poor Ukrainians with that shithole? Let them stew in their own idiocy.
Let’s not try to determine that based on just what sound like “Russia”.
From your link
Encompassing a variety of polities and peoples, including East Slavic, Norse, and Finnic,
The etymology of “Rus” is from “rowers”, and that wasn’t always exactly clear on the Baltic Sea who it mean.
You see while the people on the western shores used that word to refer to the eastern shores, we here on the northern shores used it to refer to people’s from the south. And we couldn’t really tell whether they came from southeast or southwest.
Which is what the Finnish name for Russia is “Venäjä” and for Sweden it’s “Ruotsi”.
This seems great.
I always thought Dooland was a better name.
