The rulers of Mars formed societies, made great advances in science, medicine, agriculture, architecture, industry, government, literature, philosophy, as well as various forms of electronic communications including media marketing and entertainment. However, these same rulers also exploited all their natural resources, forged great weapons of war, created racial indifference, held tightly to greed which led to vast degrees of poverty, disease, confusion, and separation. They launched scandalous political campaigns and killed or maimed all those who opposed, destroyed entire cultures and peoples in the blink of an eye, re-wrote history as they saw fit, abused powers of magic as well as other spiritual powers which they did not completely understand, and were altogether apathetic to it's outcome. They regarded themselves to be the most superior beings in the universe. Mars was left in ruins. Sounds a bit familiar. Objects created in Anim8or. Backdrop is, of course Terragen.
