Mr. Prospero, CEO of The Prosperous Corporation (TPC), remains in charge even after so much time has passed. No one is quite sure how long it's been since he founded the thing, but yet somehow he remains alive and well. Many believe that this is the product of some sort of technological advancement that the TPC created, but maybe it's just part of all their propaganda. After the nation fell into chaos, the TPC decided to declare it's own independence, taking all those employed by them with them. The TPC made up much of the economy, so when they left it nearly led to the downfall of all those who relied on their money and goods, yet they still scrape by. With the pure industrial and technological might of the TPC, they have grown to be another powerful contender in the civil war, and continue to dominate the Southern lands, much to the dismay of the Phi Socialist State, who find their ideas of corporate authority to be repulsive.
