RED MARTIAN BARSOOM CODE
The Red Martians are highly civilized, respect the idea of private property, adhere to a code of honor and have a strong sense of fairness. They are, like all the humanoid races of Mars, oviparous, i.e., their newborn hatch from eggs. Could he be sure that this was true he must make some effort to rescue her even though the customs of his strange. The Red Martians are said in A Princess of Mars to have been bred when the seas of Barsoom began to dry up, in hopes of creating a hardy race to survive in the new environment. The red planet continues to capture the imagination of science fiction writers and scientists alike.
The Red Martians are the interbred descendants of the ancient Yellow Martians, White Martians and Black Martians, remnants of which exist in isolated areas of the planet, particularly the poles. In Burroughs novels of Carters adventures, 'Barsoom' is the local name for Mars. They are organized into a system of imperial city-states including Helium, Ptarth, and Zodanga, controlling the planetary canal system, as well as other, more isolated city-states in the hinterlands. Every red Barsoomian possesses a rahakmado, or true name, known only to himself and those closest to him, which he receives shortly after he breaks the shell. The Red Martians are the dominant culture on Barsoom. With but a few exceptions, Barsoomian names are derived from the Common Tongue employed by the majority of thinking beings on the planet.
