The '''Mery''' (mehrileh: '''''mehri''''' [mɛri]) are a semi-nomadic religious peoples present within the Civ meta community. Originally developing as a culture within [[The Workers' Party]] in late 2021, the Mery have since formed various independent settlements across Civ servers and have continued their lineage on [[CivMC]]. The Mery are anarchistic in their political nature, not dissimilar to the quasi-cossack militaristic [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makhnovshchina Makhnovia] anarchist society. They are united by their common religious beliefs they call ''rha'yatshola'', which defines their mutually beneficial relationship between them and their sun god ''Tshola''.

Tshola is continuously able to hold the forces of evil off with ritual sacrifices from the people of the world, which gives the Sun strength, defining the mutual aid relationship between themself and Humanity. The Mery actively have sacrificial rituals, praise the sun, and fight the monsters of the night.
==== Tawiga ====
The first living beings created by Tshola consisted of a group of nine humans and ten horses. These nine humans defined the mutualistic relationship between the people of the earth and Tshola by offering "smoke from food or tools" that would aid Tshola in his fight against evil. As this relationship makes up the central tenet of ''rha'yatshola,'' these nine humans are typically considered the first Mery people and were given the special status known as ''Tawiga'', meaning "Saint" or "holy person." The nine ''Tawiga'' include:
