Mery Horde: Difference between revisions

The '''Mery Horde''' holds territory in the +,+ on the [[CivRevolution]] server. It is a spiritual successor to the [[Confederation of Cities Communes and Protectorates|CCCP]] from [[CivClassic|CivClassics]], with early Mery coming from [[Carson (CivClassic)|Carson]], [[Provincia]], and [[Confederation of Socialist Augusta|the Confederation of Socialist Augusta]]. First settling in the democratic socialist city-state of Merthyr, the Mery soon expanded to control much of the Mery Steppe east of the Medi Sea. The Mery seek friendship with their neighbors and respect for their traditions.

At the start of [[CivRevolution]] some players from the [[CSA]] settled in the city of [[Topher3001|Tophopolis]] which boomed in the first days of CivRev. When CivClassics returned these migrants returned to the older server and continued playing there.

The city was named after the real-life [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merthyr_Rising Merthyr Uprising], which is credited as the first workers' movement in history to use the red flag.

The founding of the city marked a radical departure from the ZombieLeniniism-Bolleshevist thought and Anarcho-Stalinist government of the [[Confederation of Cities Communes and Protectorates]]. No longer lead by [[The Workers' Party]] the civvas of Merthyr adopted a more democratic and anarchist organizational model relying on the bonds of mutual respect and trust established in previous servers. After a calm early development these early migrants emmerged together as the Mery.
