Most Serene Union of Polar Republics Polar Union The Establishment of the Most Serene Union of Polar Republics is approved by the council, pushing forward the Anractica plan to colonize the now snowless continent. The MSUPR will have a new president elected and approved by the council after the plan is completed, for now, a completely oligracharic temporary government is declared. The terraforming process would begin with fleets of automated corporate drones that would blanket the exposed ground with genetically engineered, rapid growth, lichens, mosses and bacteria. cyanobacteria to break down the harsh volcanic terrain into basic organic matter. Drop-pods would release syntheic fertilizers and nitrogen fixing clover seeds to create the very first layers of the needed topsoil, this would eventually allow plant life. After this is mostly completed, the colonization phase is started. The first millions to come to Anarctica will be those from our cities in Svalbard and Greenland. Eventually, refugee families who surivived the disasters would also be invited with promises of citizenship. Many settlements would be located near geothermal hotspots. They would be the epicenters of colonization, cities would be directly built on them to harness the limitless energy for electricity and climate control. West Anarictican cities would be better built for the amphibious environment. Going more into detail, large multi-limbed drones are dropped onto the rocky coastlines, using high-energy industral lasers and diamond-tipped drills, to cut flag, terraced, steps directly into the granite. This would create solid anti-land slip foundations. Fungal slurry is sprayed into the mud flats. Over days, this grows into a dense, web that binds the loose volcanic rock together, allowing it to take much, much heavier weights and avoid erosion. In the western isles, the upper tiers of a city would be anchored directly into solid ground of large island cliffs using massive titanium foundation bolts. As the bulidings slopes down towards the sea, the bulidings sit on giant, heavy, hydraulic tracks and even legs. When sea levels rise, the ai-assisted city command centers lift up and side backward the lower halves of the city, allowing them to escape from the high tides. Inserted into the active volcanic fault lines are heavy thermal siphons. Before the city is finished a massive geothermal energy plant is completed. The heat powers spinning turbine arrays. This provides infinite sources of local heat and power for the city. The skydomes are basically inflatable membrane made of multi-layered Ethylane Tetrafluoroethylene Plastic. Once the domes are inflated, autonomous climbers spray modified transparent quick curing polymer resin. When exposed to the cold, the resin instantly turns into an unbreakable, diamond hard, skeleton of ribs. After, automated rovers quickly 3d print modular apartment blocks, vertical farming columns, public transit tracks, and other buildings out of mostly recycled material. For long-range transportation between the city-colonies, we print tracks protected with modified, transparent, heavy-gauge glass. Inside, it is vaccum sealed, allowing extremely high-speed maglev trains to shoot passengers from city to city. This is done at speeds of near 700 mph, near at the speed of sound. For the military and security forces, lines are hard vaccum, and put into modified gel-pods. These large capsules are kept down by hyper-cooled superconducting magnets that lock the vehicle into place via quantum locking. With these safety measures, they are able to go at up to Mach 2, 1,500 mph.
