Mercurian Empire

History

Independence

In 2304, the venusian free-space cartel colonised Mercury. It was supposed to be a mining colony, Mercury having large gold and iron deposits. The Mercurian Mining Colony was founded. Massive ammount of population were moved to the planet, and an independence movement was formed. After a year, the mercurians requested independence. It was granted, but at a price...

War

In months, shipyards were constructed and civilian ships refitted in order to have a massive strike force. When SDLSE blockaded Earth, the mercurian fleet quickly came to help, in order to secure a part of earth and all of it's resources. In the following weeks, an other government took control and ordered the fleet to attack the blockade. After much politic debates, and the help of the KBF, oli_chose123 regained control and, even with the outraged nations of SDLSE and FedEx who didn't like the sudden change of side, secured a base in north america. Mercurian scientists developed secret technologies that needed to be shipped out of the planet, and this was impossible with FedEx blocking the way. To achieve that, the president had to jump out using a one use technology that permitted FTL travel.

Old Times

After getting back home, the president decided to change his nation. One of the first thing to do was to secure complete control over it. The government type became a kind of fascism control were people and military are the first priorities. The succeeded. oli_chose123 was now the leader of the newly formed mercurian empire until his death, and the people like him.

Sol War I

E.T.s

This part of the timeline can be considered as a new age, and, for others, as a dark one. At the end of 2305, aliens settled on Uranus and Pluto. SDLSE and ME(Mercurian Empire) saw that as an aggression and declared war. After discussions, and an invasion from the ECPS, ME changed their mind and allied with the UFMP. On Mercury, a free movement was rebelling against the current government, and a civil war started. Even with RRC and UFMP troops, the war was already lost for oli_chose123. The ECPS bombarded the planet shortly after, killing everyone but 5 million civilians and soldiers.

The UFMP and the ECPS are the same alien race. The UFMP fled from the ECPS dictatorship. The ECPS actually wants to destroy every civilisation which isn't in their coalition.

M₂

From the tallest building to the subtle mercurian art, everything was destroyed. Colonisation was necessary. With the use of a new kind of propulsion stolen from the ECPS. The first city is nearing completion right now. The actual project is to construct 12 cities, all in different strategic places around the globe. At the moment, 3.4 million people have landed on the planet.
