Martian Confederacy

== Overview ==
The Martian Confederacy was the first nation to ever be created outside of Earth, on the planet Mars. Founded by billionaire businessman and space pioneer Elon Musk, the Martian Confederacy quickly became the largest nation on the planet with a population rivaling or surpassing many major powers in the system. 
== History ==
=== Founding ===
The Confederacy was first created as a theory for a future model libertarian state by billionaire businessman Elon Musk after SpaceX engineers created the first permanent settlement on the planet Mars. Before the terraforming process started, members of this "nation" resided in bubbles on the planet's surface. Due to the Martian Confederacy being the first nation on the planet, they were able to claim massive swaths of territory. 
=== Los Paganos Settlement ===
The dying wish of Musk was to create a permanent city on Mars, a city which was aided by artificial intelligence and green energy. This city was originally known as "X", but eventually he changed the name to "Los Paganos" to anger the Mormon population residing on Mars. (Lit. "The Heathens" as a reference to the city "Los Angeles" meaning "The Angels"). Although his intentions for this city were it to be the model city for humanity, its use of artificial intelligence could not keep up with the massive influx of people to the city, and by the Great War Los Paganos was the largest settlement in human history, with over 120,000,000 residents.
