MRGS

MRGS, previously known as MRG-Siemens is a Terran private megacorporation. It occupies a dominant role in electronics and utilities industries. Its headquarters are located in Tokyo, on Earth. 
Initially appearing in 2025 as Mitsubishi-Renault, it was at the time a car manufacturing company, integrating Renault, Nissan, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Mitsubishi Electric. Inn 2039, General Electric merged with Mitsubishi Corporation. Subsequently in 2041 Mitsubishi-Renault and Mitsubishi-GE merged. In it rebranded in 2045 as MRG. The company was headquartered in Japan, which was with the European Federation one of the rare areas of the world to go largely unaffected by the 2040s Crisis. It became a major partner of the Japanese government, and became the "last zaibatsu". During this period, it established itself as a large energy company in Japan and Korea, which willingly entered into a union with Japan in 2049, providing large scale renewable energy sources. It also began producing various electronics components, acquiring TSMC (now Semi-Conductor Manufacturing Company) in 2050 and becoming the largest electronics company in the world. When the Japanese-Korean Union was absorbed into TAU and later the First Commonwealth, MRGS became a major supplier of energetic and electronics products for the government. It was also for a brief period the main supplier of vehicles for the Commonwealth army, during the African and South American campaigns. 
With the phasing out of cars in the 2100s, their definitive outlawing on Earth and the rise of Clarktech as the primary energy-provider of the First Commonwealth, the company saw its reach diminished. It progressively turned itself towards electronics and utilities. In 2206, it merged with Siemens, its main competitor. The newly formed MRG-Siemens became the sole provider of common transport vehicles such as trains and hyperloop nacelles.It acquired the civilian parts of Airbus and Boeing in 2212 and 2219 respectively, becoming a major player in the early years of spacecraft. In 2256, it became MRGS. It entered several partnerships, notably with Frijkstadt to fulfill several large-scale infrastructure contracts issued by the Terran government on Earth and increasingly other planets. It remains one of the most iconic Terran companies, its logo and products being recognisable to any Terran citizen. 
The company has over two thousand subsidiaries. Its main divisions are MRGS Electronics, MRGS Transports, MRGS Solutions and MRGS Energy. MRGS Electronics produces both electronic components, notably microprocessors, but also spacecraft. MRGS Transports manufactures all sorts of non-space faring vehicles. MRGS Solutions is the general utilities branch of the firm. MRGS Energy manufactures diverse power generators and batteries. Whilst Clarktech has a near-monopoly on fusion reactors, which are the main type of reactors across the Federation, these are ill-suited for smaller installations or even vessels. MRGS solar panels, windmills and chemical reactors power all sorts of small settlements, scientific installations, space stations and small to even medium ships. The smallest ships such as strike craft use batteries, which the company has a complete monopoly over.
