Synthetic Marijuana

Unfortunately, Alliance sleeper ships did not contain a single seed of marijuana. However, in 312 AS a previously unknown pharmaceutist and drug dealer Max Cryer from Planet New Berlin, Rheinland created a new drug from a combination of local plants and synthetic components. The effect of the new drug resembled the effect of an ancient drug found on Earth before the exodus and known only from old books and encyclopedias. Therefore pills of new drug were called "synthetic marijuana". Cryer succeeded in forming secret agreements with leading pharmaceutical companies, and marijuana powder was added to many medicines in small dozes. This resulted in 400-600% sells increase for many medicines during only two years. At the same time, Cryer started to distribute the marijuana pills as an ordinary drug. Rheinland police soon found out the origin of new drug and put a stop to its mass production. They even caught Cryer, but at court were unable to prove his guilt. In 330 AS, 10 years after trial, Max Cryer used billions he earned on drug trade to found a new phamaceutical company in Liberty, known as Cryer Pharmaceuticals. Since then, synthetic marijuana became expensive and difficult to find, but it is known for sure that its production continues on some remote places away from House borders.
