Red Faction Commonwealth

A free and better Mars

The **Red Faction Commonwealth** is the dominant force on Red Mars. However, they are still continuing their fight against the Settlement Defense Front, the Plague aliens, and the demons from Doom. This was known as the Red Mars War.

## History

The Red Faction Commonwealth appeared on another version of Mars known as, Red Mars, during the second phase of the apocalypse. There isn't much information about them except some damaged data about them that took place before Red Faction: Armageddon. However, they also appeared with the Plague aliens from the same game yet they exist underground due to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, there are also various versions of the demons and monsters from the Doom series that keep on popping up all over the planet while also fighting against the Settlement Defense Front from Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. These four factions fight for the control and future of Mars. The Red Faction Commonwealth wants to spread democracy but the Settlement Defense Front wants to create a fascist regime. The White Faction, what was left of the Earth Defense Force, joined with the Settlement Defense Front in order to get their revenge on the Red Faction. The Marauders joined in with the Red Faction Commonwealth.

After some time has passed since Red Mars' appearance, the United Nations & Creations step in with a colossal fleet of ships and a vast army that started exterminating all opposition and have the Red Faction Commonwealth to join. But now they're trying to strike down any remaining enemy forces left on Red Mars.

## Government

The government of the Red Faction Commonwealth is a republic with a direct democracy under the leadership of a Chancellor. Like a president, the Chancellor has supreme authority in the executive branch, the Red Council. The Red Council is the decision making body in the Red Faction Commonwealth that decide what laws should get voted, carry out and enforce those laws, and vote in new members.

The Martian Congressional Legislate is the legislative branch of the Red Faction Commonwealth that are comprised of two parts:

* **Senate:** The Senate is the upper house of the Martian Congressional Legislate that takes action on bills, resolutions, amendments, motions, nominations, and treaties by voting. Senators vote in a variety of ways, including roll call votes, voice votes, and unanimous consent. A term for a senator is only ten years and only one term. As of now, there are only four senators, one for each province.
* **Representative Ministry:** The Representative Ministry is the lower house that makes and passes laws as well as comprised of five members of the province with each member represent a different political party that wish to voice the opinions of the parties they represent. The Isolationist Party wishes to keep out of the political affairs of other nations as a whole and keep away from the affairs of the United Nations & Creations. The Prosper Party focuses on improving the infrastructure of the Red Faction Commonwealth in terms of technology, finances, labor, and military along with improving diplomatic ties. The Freedom Party wish to keep democracy going and ensure that no company or organization treats people like slaves like what happened to their forefathers during the First Martian Revolution. The Enlightenment Party is actually members of the Marauders that wish to voice their people's opinions and keep much of their traditions.

The judicial branch is divided into two which we have the Supreme Court for civilians and the Military Court Marshall Office for the military. The M.C.M.C.O. is meant to keep many of their officers and soldiers in line while ensuring that no one does any war crimes. If so, the trial is to be held anywhere at any time with the highest ranking officer, such as generals, act as judges with a small jury of other high ranking officers.

## Culture & Society

After the war against the three factions, the Red Faction Commonwealth started to slowly rebuild alongside their Marauder allies as they use the technology left behind from not just Ultor Corporation and the Earth Defense Force, but also some of the technology that were made by the Settlement Defense Front and the Union Aerospace Corporation. People love salvaging whatever they can to help rebuild what was lost as they lost 85% of their population.

Many members of the Red Faction adopted some of the newer culture of the Marauders as they recreate some of the ancient structure similar to the one's belonging to the Plague aliens and some structures of the ancient people of Mars such as the Martians from the Doom series and Argentas. Yet they add some of their own cultures and architectures of both Red Faction and Marauders. They used nanotechnology, also called nanotech, to rebuild and create everything they need for their reconstruction project which they also use nanomachines in creating a large variety of weapons and even weaponize the nanites themselves. This include the use of the Nano Rifle that can disintegrate any solid matter, including gunships.

The people of the Red Faction Commonwealth are fiercely independent along with a strong sense of unity when facing against overwhelming odds. They're all willing to fight against a common enemy when their homes are being attacked and lands invaded.

## Economy

The Red Faction Commonwealth has many jobs for anyone looking for work on Red Mars as they managed to claim much of the planet after the Red Mars War.

### Mining

Mining is always an integral part of the Red Faction Commonwealth as there are still many untapped resources beneath, such as deuterium. Yet with the technology left behind by the Union Aerospace Corporation, the natural iron oxide of the planet can be processed into oxygen and hydrogen thanks to the Hydrocon. Other resources mined on Red Mars include titanium, iron, nickel, aluminum, sulfur, chlorine, calcium, silicon dioxide, and many more.

### Water Reclamation

Rarely appearing in natural form on Red Mars, water must be constantly sourced and a steady supply maintained for society to go on. A key part of this is the reclamation of water from deposits of ice. However, thanks to the Hydrocon, they can create much water with the oxygen and hydrogen atoms that are then used for various hydroponics farms and delivering water to many populated areas.

### Research & Development

With much of the technology left behind, many scientists continue to research on what was left that doesn't include biological weaponry or gaining things from the "Hell Dimension". So, they shut down any and all research on opening demon portals to prevent any further incursions and shut down any and all forms of Argent Energy. However, they continue to researching the Bio-Force weapons, plasma energy, other forms of biological research, teleportation, terraforming, and space exploration. They even kept many other devices and scientific researches. This include some of the machines and weapons of the Settlement Defense Front to further their control and even use the ships to protect Red Mars.

However, they continue researching nanotechnology in order to improve planets on a molecular level.

### Salvaging

Salvaging and recycling is an important part of the Red Faction as there are many bases, structures, outposts and research posts left behind after the war. Salvaging any form of technology or scrap is easy for those that are looking for quick cash or use them for other purposes such as crafting. Everything that belonged to the Union Aerospace Corporation, the Settlement Defense Front, the Ultor Corporation, and the Earth Defense Force are nothing more than hollowed husks that people can take down and take whatever they can. As a matter of fact, people of the Red Faction Commonwealth like to tear down the "offices of oppression and corruption" and hope to wipe out all of their traces.

### Energy & Fuel Production

There are many forms of energy that is produced by the Red Faction Commonwealth. Solar and wind are used as one of the many means of producing energy. Plasma energy from the Union Aerospace Corporation is used as an alternate mean of generating energy as well as make plasma weapons. There is also geothermal energy that is also used as well. With the Hydrocon, they can create hydrogen from the iron oxide that can also be used as another source of energy and even heating as well as fuel.

And with the Hydrocon making hydrogen, they also use the Molecular Fuel Storage Compactor (MFS Compactor) to create vast quantities of hydrogen that are used to fuel the ships. But they also discover some Sentinel Batteries to power up certain sections of a city yet some people label them as black market items.

## Military

The main military of the Red Faction Commonwealth is divided in two: the Guerillas and the Navy. The Red Faction Guerillas are a bit of a decentralized military ground force that are, as the name says, guerilla fighters. They prefer to use surprise attacks and ambushes on any enemies as they have done against the Settlement Defense Front during the Red Mars War. They believe that using such tactics is the most effective way of taking down any enemy forces while robbing the enemy of their supplies rather than using a large military force that does direct attacks. They have the Red Faction Navy for that.

The Red Faction Navy is a space navy that is comprised of former Settlement Defense Front ships that now have the Red Faction insignia on them along with a few ships from the Union Aerospace Corporation. This also includes the SWSC-1 Olympus Mon supercarrier that has the main gun replaced with technology from the Accelerator from Mount Vogel that is best described as a giant Nano Rifle that is capable of vaporizing moons and large chunks of planets. And unlike the Red Faction Guerillas, they prefer a direct assault on enemies using overwhelming firepower. And with all the SWSC-1 supercarriers armed with Accelerator Nano Guns, they can do that.
