They maintain outposts and military bases in several outlying stations and in an attempt to expand their militaristic faction and take control over the Metro. They only listen to the Fuhrer who is the de facto leader of the newly delcared nation. They are at war with both the Red Line and anyone who is a threat to "genetic perfection" such as people with genetics from surface animals.

The Reich itself is completely modeled after Nazi Germany and the Third Reich and incorporates the Nazi ideology to govern society. Unlike its predecessor, the Reich itself are made up of Russian Nationalists that want "Russian Purity" affectivly glorifying the Russian/Slavic race. The Reich is also focused on Genetic Purity and treats all citizens with the slightest of impurities as second-class citizens and is considered a lower race.
