Tarka, Gilve - A 77 year old colonel in the
Australian Armed Forces, Colonel Tarka commanded the Eastern defense district
on Mars, which covered a luctrative commerical mining area that was
administered by the Australians until its captured by Selangor. Colonel Tarka
and his subordinate Lieutenant Annia Ng both perished in a SCRAM penetrator
assault on the district's main command center during the fighting. Despite his
death at the very beginning of the ES storyline, Colonel Tarka is a key
character due to his importance to the surviving players. He had essentially
been moved to Mars in order to make sure nothing bad happened to him, so it was
tragic irony that war found its way to his precise location. |

Territories Major independent population
centers of between 100,000 and 500,000 people are usually referred to as
territories. Most territories are self-governing and maintain basic civil
services and military defenses. However they usually lack extensive
infrastructure like that of a major nation and typically they only have a small
industrial base.
The list of territories below includes the three
largest; Bali, Diné and Ampara. Of those three, Diné follows
rather isolationist policies. Bali is more active and is marginally allied with
Australia, whereas Ampara is more supportive of Selangor. The following is
a partial list of major territories and their geographic relation to recognized
nations:
- Bali (Island: between Australia and Selangor)
- Diné (Inland: far to east of California)
- Ampara (Coastal: East side of Sri Lanka, southwest of
Selangor)
- Port Nkomi (Coastal: between Med States and Cape
Union)
