Martian colonization happened in stages, managed by the UESC Colonial Registry, which regulated how frequently new colonists could be sent.[1] The first major migration saw a 36% increase in religious affiliation.[2] Early Martian colonists experienced an event known as the Polar Ice Crisis.[1] The planet saw an incident of historic violence at the Jezero Crater Massacre.[3]
