The Commonwealth of Mars, is a dejure representative republic which rules Mars, its moons and orbital colonies. It has been however since AC:209 a defacto single party dictatorship.
Mars was first colonized on 2031 by the United Nations Space Coalition
This government is a militaristic form of autocracy, with the ruler serving as the undisputed head of the military which is firmly in control of the state apparatus.
Martian culture is quite ridged and militaristic with a vast importance put on the honor of ones clan. All are considered equal within their own clan, however those who have no clan are effectively non-persons in the eye of both the government and population at large - leaving only the hope of being adopted into a new clan or ritual suicide as their only options.
Within Martian society cloning is seen as perfectly acceptable and the use of genetically augmented 'battle thralls' is seen as a necessary tool to ensure the freedom and sovereignty of their people, due to this the Commonwealth of Mars has the largest standing army of any force outside of the United Earth Republic - the vast majority of it innumerable clone legions.
