Due to the close proximity to Earth and despite its inhospitality, Mars has received a massive number of colonists during the first waves colonization. The byproduct of this is that many issues, national and cultural, that plagued humanity at that times, were brought over to the Red Planet. The colonies, more often than not, supported by nations of earth as legal colonies, were putting constant pressure and producing tensions between each other. Wars between the colonies, although rare, were not unheard of. Many colony states of Mars, although now independant, still boast of their heritage and binds to this or that past or present nation on Earth.

These tensions, over the centuries, produced cultures and traditions unseen on other planets, which were much less involved in Earth politics. Denizens of Mars, at least those who are in position to care about such things, speak of their roots with pride. Some of the many culture groups on Mars still keep old traditions that have long since died out on Earth.

Due to the planet's low gravity, first colonists were handpicked among those who had the strongest bone density and later, cheap stable gene mods were introduced as part of the general medicine, to increase the survival rate. As technology developed, artificial gravity generators were introduced under the cities to rectify the health issues of being born in such an environment. This has, over many generations, made the average martian have an increased bone density and height.

Mars was developed very early on during the race to space. This left many tensions in the society that exist to this day.

History

Due to the close proximity to Earth and despite its inhospitality, Mars has received a massive number of colonists during the first waves colonization. The byproduct of this is that many issues, national and cultural, that plagued humanity at that times, were brought over to the Red Planet. The colonies, more often than not, supported by nations of earth as legal colonies, were putting constant pressure and producing tensions between each other. Wars between the colonies, although rare, were not unheard of. Many colony states of Mars, although now independant, still boast of their heritage and binds to this or that past or present nation on Earth.

These tensions, over the centuries, produced cultures and traditions unseen on other planets, which were much less involved in Earth politics. Denizens of Mars, at least those who are in position to care about such things, speak of their roots with pride. Some of the many culture groups on Mars still keep old traditions that have long since died out on Earth.

The First Colonists

Due to the planet's low gravity, first colonists were handpicked among those who had the strongest bone density and later, cheap stable gene mods were introduced as part of the general medicine, to increase the survival rate. As technology developed, artificial gravity generators were introduced under the cities to rectify the health issues of being born in such an environment. This has, over many generations, made the average martian have an increased bone density and height.

Terraforming

Although a catastrophe, the terraforming project of Mars was not a complete failure. The air is still toxic, it effectively raised Mars' near zero pressure to tolerable 0.5 range, along with the average temperature. The air is still toxic. This difference meant that a space suit was no longer needed to traverse its surface, instead, pressure suits or thick clothing, along with eye, mouth and ear protection were enough to stop the worst effects of low pressure environment.
