Thanks everyone for correcting me on the La Sirenna!
She also had the core knowledge of Starfleet Captains to the point she knew of top secret things only given to captain level officers and above such as the Omega Protocol etc. She was probably given a couple of exams on a PADD to check she really knew her stuff and had the voice of one presumably active Admiral in Janeway and retired Admiral Picard who will still have some pull despite him not being Starfleet's favourite person after the shennanigans of Season 1.
Raffi feels like such wasted potential because so much of her is buried in comic books nobody except the very very core nerds among us will read, which properly explores her and her character. I'd have almost preffered Raffi to be some commander who got swept up in Picard Hero Worship only to be slapped hard in the face by reality during the run of the show as then at least we could see it all on Screen. Like I get the idea of multi-media universes is the flavour of the day and all, but I'm not hunting down or collecting comics when I have far more core hobbies to spend my meagre resources on.
Like I'm hoping to God Matalas gets his 25th Century series with Seven and Raffi as the leads, because then we have a chance to properly explore the character.
Looking at things like the aftermath of WW2, things lagged horrifically for the "old" powers in Europe especially while the USA was able to bounce back fairly well with the gold it had taken off of the British before lend-lease. In the UK it would be over a decade before rationing was abolished, in Germany 70% of the housing stock was demolished or bombed flat, France's economy was either bombed flat or past the point of economic viability.
Each power really wouldn't settle properly until the 60s if not the 70s, with ruins in various places lasting a long while during rebuilding.
The Federation would've suffered for quite some time after this for sure, even with new people in the service etc (and a lot might've gone into the service for the garuntees) and while it'd most likely recovered by the 2390s we then had the disaster at Utopia Planitia which resulted in the destruction of The Federations primary shipyards. Couple it with the various problems of the collapse of the Romulan Star Empire and the formation of the rather tenuous looking Romulan Free State... and the Federation has plenty of problems on its hands including a seemingly large scale Romulan Disapora of which a bunch if made up of former members of the Tal Shiar.
