==== Other territories ====
By the end of the first day on the server, Mery person [[Smal]] founded the [[Fox Island|Republic of Fox Island]] as a small Mery outpost in the +,+.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/v3uwwi/the_republic_of_fox_island_oc_nation_donut_steal/</ref> This territory was quickly overclaimed by [[Zatoka]], causing smal to abandon it until re-declaring its independence on October 26, 2022.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/ydzynj/redeclaring_the_republic_of_the_fox_island/</ref> The island boasts a storage room for the Mery and a small shrine. smal remains the only actual permanent resident.

While not considered a part of the Mery culture, the nation of [[The Potistani Host|Potistan]] adopted a similar lifestyle to that of the Mery and also practiced the Mery religion ''rha'yatshola''. When Potistan went inactive in early 2023, the leader moved to the [[SPQR]] and built a ''rha'yatshola'' temple there as well.
