I love it, Belters cranked up to 11

Adam Meric, certified hero and Isaac Arthur fan.

MY PEOPLE! And wow, Mericia looks *amazing.*

Imagine being a centran captain in axius watching merician weapons go from the keep to atamarra and knowing that but for a contract the war would be over

An example of well-written backstory for a peaceful trade power.

I've been curious about the merician's for a while. How a such a small, independent nation was allowed to exist without a war of independence

Australia + Venice = Mericia

Ok I have a question. Is Mericia affected by rationing too? Are their food supplies also strained?

The station reminds me of a late Cylon War Basestar.

Mericians greeting eachother be like "What's up my Rigga?"

There is no way that Meric's portrait looking like Matt Mercer of Critical Roll is a coincidence?!

Yeah i bet the KDFY execs were happy to see the crew they tossed to a decaying star back safe and sound... If they're even alive by then. On a serious note this was very inspiring to watch and I'm really happy i get to properly learn about the mericians, this gives me all the more reasons to buy the series when i can afford it.

nice worldbuilding!

Dang, raise a glass to Adam Meric.

That's good work. Thank you.

Were the Mericians involved in the Frontier War aside from arms sales?

I wonder why did the assembly let the mericians keep there independence surely there would have been some cries by politicians who thought they new better, and how did that effect the frontier independence movement it’s not hard to image propaganda going “they let them have freedom but not us” Also this has nothing to do with the video content but now that atamara is no longer in the assembly wouldn’t it be prudent to construct a drift gate pair between axius and seravius so you don’t have to chose between going the long way around or risk entering a system ruled by a pirate queen

True Merician Heroes!

Glory to the Spacenoids!

Lol, Meric looks alot like Danny Trejo

While this is my people and nation. I can't help but see the obvious divide of the upper and lower classes of the rich and poor. I wouldn't be surprised if mericians have some corruption within the private companies that they have that most of tantalis is so reliant on. Funny enough, if theirs such high inflation within tantalis (ik Im spelling the name wrong), I can suspect a lot of it is coming from the massive corporations from the mericians. Irl 45 percent of all high inflation rn is caused by corporations profiting off of whats happening irl, 40 percent caused by the war in ukraine, and the other 15 percent by the rising wages. Wages irl have barely risen to meet with inflation because as stuff gets more expensive over time, you need a higher salary to meet and be able to still afford things like food, water, bills, etc. Because lack of jobs, high inflaction, and the collapse of supply of food and resources like metals etc, its no wonder why we can see a massive famine granted its more complex than what it actually says in the lore but for sure if you have control over most of the manufacturered parts and contracts, corporations can easily raise massive amounts of prices to keep trying to raise profits. If the mericians were to nationalize those massive corporations and companies within their industries, would most definitely would be able to ease the inflation, and the high prices within the cluster would certainly and mostly help. Now, the lack of jobs and supply lines for food and such that's a more complex problem that will have to be solved. I think its funny for people to say this series in the universe of the sojourn is better than ours, which tbh I find bs and ignorant because they would likely have similar and much more complex problems like us irl than what the lore can even tell us like take the merician exile for example how astronomers thought the star was in a state it wouldnt have a bad solar event which happened showed how the company took short cuts to keep up there profits and not studying the star enough and taking safe enough measures before actually sending the fleet in which got caught in a solar flare event, But hey, I like to know what some might think of what im saying here is interesting take on whats happening with humanity. I would like to know what exactly kind of economy the mericians have and if their using a capitalist system or whatever their using would be great to know. I know this is just a series but I do like to know how much deeper and speculate how much their is beyond of what the lore tells us. What do you think?

I like pickles
