The '''Mery Horde''' holds territory in the +,+ on the [[CivRev]] 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]] (CSA). 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.

</ref>The law officially codified the Mery's non-hierarchical nature and created rules to permit the growth and functioning of the Horde. The Mery hold their equality to be sacred, teaching that "the sun beats down evenly on us all" but from time to time when the situation demands, an Ataman shall be elected from among the Mery to lead them in accomplishing their goals.

Following the decline of CivRev's playerbase in early January 2022, most of the Mery have since migrated to [[Vintage Civ]] where they founded the village of [[Hwillotati]].
