Mars (MTO)

Terraforming was started on the new Mars region in 2030 and finished in 2040. The new Mars Treaty Organisation was founded in 2078 and is currenly a popular political organisation on Mars. Many nations talk on the Mars Diplomatic Forum which was also completed in 2078.

Mars has unfortunatly witnessed many conflicts including the Trech Coats invasion of 2054 and the Planet Mars situation of 2079 (an event not recognised by the inhabitants of The Planet Mars) however the gravest situation to Mars was the Mirror Mars war. The war was finally won by the Mars Treaty Organisation however there was widespread damage throughout Mars. Currently the terrorist group TKK have started a terror campaign across Mars.

Inter-Regional Relations

Mars attempted talks with The Planet Mars about a possible alliance. The vast majority of The Planet Mars has, however, refused to recognise the existence of the Mars of the TMO claiming that they are the only viable Mars in NationStates roleplaying and refusing to engage in gameplay activities. A minority of TPM members has, however, engaged in negotiations with 'Mars-B' claiming to represent the planet.
