    They’d need an epstein drive to gain independence though, no way mars would be rich enough by itself to win a conventional war for independence.

      There wouldn’t be a conventional war because they’re on Mars. Deployment time from one planet to the other would be so long I don’t even think you could keep the people motivated enough to fight.
