Active role in Regional Defense
Crazed Marines has volunteered itself for the defense of Earth Orbit/ Lansraad. The logical step was to build a large Space Fleet that would be created by over one thousand spacedocks completely run by AI and nanites. This method increased production speed to 1000% efficiency compared to most earlier mechanical and human-operated plants. Next was a minefield. It started with the Barbados point-detonation mine (nuclear bomb upgraded to a disruptor charge) then the Manchurian point-defense mine (a laser point-defense system that would support the Barbados mines), next was the graviton mines (which secured against Shivians' subspace shielding as well a good trash compactor). It is currently rumored within intelligence circles that cluster-mines are soon to come as well as anti-temporal distortion devices. The President of Crazed Marines had one thing to say when regarding the minefield, "Come and test it out for yourself if you wish to die. If you don't, I suggest you move away, slowly."
Expansion into space
Crazed Marines rapidly accelerated from a 2010 tech nation to a spach tech nation within ten years due to the help of New Exodus and Crystal Ireland. They activated their first colony in 2015 and launched the majority of the country into space by 2025. They have since expanded to accommodate their ever expanding population. Most recently, they announced an Orbital Stargate program along with the colonization of a new, uninhabited planet halfway between Earth and Yavin IV called Sigma Octaganus. Many see this as a step foward to trading more with CoreWorlds. There are also Fortress worlds and major military bases on other planets such as Reach, Rogan, and Elsi.
Dialect
- Crazed Marines: being a mostly Southern USA nation, tends to use terms such as, "Plum", "y'all", and a few other words of Southern slang.
- The Nation: "Crazed Marines", such as when responding to. It is never pronounced "Crazy Marine" or "Crazy Marines", just "Crazed Marines"
- A Citizen: Always called a "Marine", never "Crazy Marine" or "Jarhead"
The Nation (possessive): Always refered to as "Crazed Marines' such-and-such), never "Crazy Marine's so-and-so".
Arts and Entertainment
Arts : The arts are frowned upon due to their lack of productivity and are generally spat upon. Entertainment : There are three major TV stations are in CM, Teuful Hounden (literally meaning devil dog, like Spike TV, always posted in blue), Foxtrot News (just like Fox IRL, green preface), and CMN (Crazed Marines News, similar in slant/ bias towards liberals to CNN, red preface). Foxtrot and Teuful Hounden are the leaders of the pack, while CMN's ratings are slipping like an unnamed, fat, white film-maker down a Louisiana mudhole.
Entertainment : Public executions are now being shown of Teuful, and the ratings have skyrocketed. Foxtrot's main networt also has shows called, "EOD Fridays", "Machinegun Joe", and the critically acclaimed "Explodathon!" where they find clips taken from all kinds of ordinance from the previous few weeks and their effects. Viedo games are also popular, aa holograms replaced screens and neuroscanners dominating controllers. The newest hit was Halo: Chronicles of Reach where the players get to fight the Reach campaign as any of fifty Spartans. It also has a popular online campaign and multiplayer component.
