Other versions

This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Levels adjusted; dirt, wrinkles, rips extraneous ink blobs, etc, cleaned/removed; rotated, cropped, sharpened; text selectively darkened; saturation tweaked (levels adjustment often results in over-saturation); children's story written, since this reminds me of illustrations for them. Once in the city of Vragaeschensk the children were bored. They had nothing to do! Sure, the rest of Russia was busy dealing with those mean nobles, but that was a long way away! Why couldn't fun things happen there? Sometimes, they wished that Siberia could be its own country, instead of part of a country where everything interesting happened so far away. Then, at least, they wouldn't have to hear about it. But then, suddenly, with the sound of... fireworks... something started coming! It was the Japanese! The Japanese set off fireworks, and the adults were annoyed, but then the Japanese threw a parade, and they all came out to watch - except the grumpy ones, who had to make a big bonfire pile out of their firework sticks. It was so much fun! There were even biplanes, dropping ~~propoganda~~ candy, and these big ships sailing around in the ocean, sending off fireworks with big BOOMs. It was the best day ever!.
