			=== Rules ===
			According to an info-chip about RSR's rules and ranks, the following were some basic rules of the clan which are presumed to have persisted throughout its existence:<ref>Red Skull Republic Rules/Ranks Info-Chip. ''[[Infochips Archive 1]] (p. 100)''</ref>
			* No disrespecting leaders
			* No Heart for Heart
			* Respect members and allies
			* No copying or stealing
			* Being a member of multiple clans at once was prohibited. (Double-clanning)
			* Activity should be public.
			* Members cannot accept new members into RSR without Overlord status.
			* Spying on other clans without authorization was prohibited.

	=== Ranks ===		=== Ranks ===
	The titles of the Red Skull Republic have undergone various changes over the years. However, its core leaders are usually referred to as overlords.<ref>Red Skull Republic - Overlord Bios. ''[[Infochips Archive 1]] ''(p. 94).</ref><ref>Red Skull Republic Rules/Ranks Info-Chip.

	Members with higher rank had greater prestige and authority over those below them. Upon achieving certain ranks, members were awarded with certain powers, privileges and security keycard stickers. Each rank had a certain number of levels that would need to be achieved before moving onto the next rank.<ref name=":5" />		Members with higher rank had greater prestige and authority over those below them.

			There were also other ranks not included in these lists. For example, Paladin was a rank with nine levels between Executioner and Crimson Executioner. Crimson Executioner was a level between Paladin and Grand Paladin. Grand Paladin was a level that sat just below Exedin. Scarlet Centurion was an upper-class rank above all but Overlords.<ref name=":10" />

	=== Foreign Relations and Military ===		=== Foreign Relations and Military ===
	In its ~~early days under~~ Hitman__101's ~~regime~~, the RSR was ~~definitely aggressive~~ in ~~its~~ affairs ~~but maintained a friendly relationship with clans such as Vector Troop and Skull Force before~~ Skull ~~Force collapsed~~.~~{{Fact}}~~		Throughout its history, the Red Skull Republic was highly supportive of its allies. Its foreign policy shifted greatly depending on the most active leader at the time. Hitman__101's initial tactics when RSR was founded were highly aggressive and sought to intimidate enemies into submission. However, as conflict began to wear down the RSR, foreign policy shifted to favor a more diplomatic approach. This typically was promoted by Overlord HomocidalChicken, who was in charge of foreign affairs for the clan most of the time.<ref name=":11">[[Red Skull Republic Wiki Post - Full History]] (pp. 27-28)</ref>

	~~When HomocidalChicken took~~ over ~~when Hitman__101~~ was ~~away and eventually resigned~~, the Red Skull Republic ~~became more strategic in its affairs and looked at the bigger picture~~.~~{{Fact}}~~		RSR dealt with opponents through negotiation when possible, and often coordinated with allies to deter enemies from following through with aggressions. RSR usually utilized indirect methods of dealing with threats such as espionage.<ref name=":11" />

			<nowiki> </nowiki>The Nodus Projects, especially the first iteration, were beneficial ways for the RSR to spread its influence and build information networks that would allow them to ascertain threats and potential opportunities.<ref name=":11" />

			RSR claimed to have never suffered a defeat during its existence, however others have claimed victory over the clan.<ref name=":9" /> RSR's preferred method of combat was [[Create War\|create war.]]<ref name=":11" /> However, RSR did engage in [[Online Create Battle\|online create battle]] during the [[Kardían Era\|Kardían Era]], claiming a victory against the [[Union Task Force]] during the [[The Red Skull Republic / LBP Union War\|RSR-LBP Union War.]]
	== Culture and Style ==		== Culture and Style ==
	The Red Skull Republic ~~prided itself~~ on ~~its~~ advanced ~~detail~~ and its ~~arsenal of skilled creators~~, ~~which helped make~~ the RSR ~~stand out among other groups~~. ~~Advanced robotics~~, ~~bipedal vehicles and superior logic systems are just~~ a ~~few of~~ the ~~notable developments created by~~ the Red Skull Republic.~~{{Fact}}~~		The Red Skull Republic has a greatly diverse number of creative styles and themes. Its signature black and red-striped color scheme was originally intended to mirror the green and black aesthetic of [[Skullforce]]. However, the clan developed a much richer set of themes and styles over the years.

			=== Militaristic ===
			In the early years of RSR, the clan mainly relied on a militaristic style with bases and soldiers, echoing the strategy of Skullforce. This theme would persist throughout RSR's existence as one of the clan's core components.<ref name=":12">[[Red Skull Republic Wiki Post - Full History]] (p. 28)</ref>

			=== Post-Apocalyptic ===
			As time went on, RSR's leaders desired to gain distance from the clan's original style. Environmental themes depicted desolate, barren wastelands with an emphasis on realism and grittiness. Uniforms incorporated gas masks and more metallic parts. In general, there was a focus on shading and low-light conditions. Technology was also at the forefront of RSR's levels with advanced weapons and machines.<ref name=":12" />

			=== Cyberpunk ===
			Farther into the Shadow Epoch, the Red Skull Republic felt that its previous styles were overused. They opted for strong cyberpunk themes, making levels gritty and technologically advanced. Sticker texturing began being used more often for this theme as well.<ref name=":12" />

			=== Surreal ===
			To further develop RSR's appearance, more otherworldly appearances were incorporated into the clan's landscapes. This was later explained to be due to RSR occupying its own planet or universe.<ref name=":12" />

			=== Gothic Bourgeois ===
			In the latter days, HomocidalChicken incorporated a far more architectural style into the RSR's style. With roots in gothic and renaissance styles, structures were designed to depict an upper class aesthetic, leaving behind the modernist and futuristic of RSR's cyberpunk aesthetic. More natural elements were also used to depict more of RSR's world.<ref name=":13">[[Red Skull Republic Wiki Post - Full History]] (p. 29)</ref>

			One of the benefits of this style for RSR was that Gothic Bourgeois was exceedingly difficult to accomplish, safeguarding RSR's style from imitation.<ref name=":13" />
