In Response To: Question: Population of Mars Colony before coup? (Clouds)

: Does anyone have an estimate or best guess as to the human population of Mars
: before the failed MIDA coup of 2321 (or the failed MIDA coup of 2466,
: according to Lost Network Packets)?
: On Terminal 2 of The Rose we read: MIDA gained control of Mars for only three
: months, but their rule was ruthless and cruel. The MIDA death
: squads killed anyone who they suspected of being loyal to the
: UEG. Although accurate census data is not available for that
: period, it is estimated that about ten percent of the
: population was killed.
: What do folks think and why? Hundreds? Thousands? Hundreds of thousands?
: Millions? Billions?
: I haven't been able to find any clues in the Marathon game universe. Here are
: a few of my own initial thoughts and questions and sources I figured could
: be helpful...
: Salotti (2020) estimates the minimum number of people needed for a colony on
: Mars to be 110.

On The Rose we read about the Misriah Massacre at a food riot.
It took only five seconds for over five hundred starving Martians to be incinerated.
So more than 500.
Cheers
