Overview
In 2180, Mississippi LLC gained control of The Quad's District 9, the sprawling urban area that was formerly under the jurisdiction of the Travel Corp (TC). TC had been struggling to maintain order and security in the district, which was plagued by poverty, crime, and corruption. Mississippi LLC offered to take over the district in exchange for a lucrative contract and a free hand to operate as it pleased. TC agreed, hoping to save money and resources, and handed over the district to Mississippi LLC.
Since then, Mississippi LLC has transformed District 9 into a fortified enclave, where it enforces its own laws and regulations. It has installed surveillance cameras, checkpoints, drones, and armed guards throughout the district, creating a state of constant fear and oppression for the residents. It has also exploited the district’s resources, such as its factories and one of the Micro-DH power plants. It has cracked down on any form of dissent or resistance, using brutal force and cyberattacks to silence its opponents. It has also recruited some of the district’s inhabitants into its ranks, offering them better pay and living conditions, but also demanding absolute loyalty and obedience.
In 2195, Mississippi LLC's outside ties were severed like many of the MegaCorps who were HQ elsewhere. Finding itself isolated from resources it needed, such as food, they began to co-oporate with the other Megacorps to help secure The Quad. Offering military capability, electrical power, and manufacturing capabilities to the other 19 districts.
Mississippi LLC’s control of District 9 has made it one of the most powerful and influential megacorporations in The Quad. It has also attracted the attention and envy of its rivals, who are looking for ways to challenge or undermine its dominance. Mississippi LLC is aware of the threats it faces, and is prepared to defend its territory and interests by any means necessary. It is not afraid to use its vast arsenal of weapons, technology, and personnel to achieve its goals, even if it means causing collateral damage or violating human rights.
