>What sort of colonies will humans for to the red planet?
Underground.

>How large are they?
Limiting factors are the incoming energy and the speed at which they can dig. Who knows, probably more than the meme value that faggot suggested wrt the size of populations and human interactions.

>How they make decisions and select their leaders?
They wont. There is no reason to be on mars except because. You don't need a leader if your constitution and statutory law are competently created. the jist of it will be "do whatever you want, don't murder people or violate airlock procedure. If you do, you die"

>What kind of judicial systems they will use?
Jury system and statutory law.

>What happens if a colony population grows larger than they are able to sustain?
Those who can't afford to eat starve as they should. Only a fool lives beyond their means.

>Will they be religious and if so, how?
Light and heat come from the sky, from the gods of the sky. But Kek is their god. Kek, and he lives in the ground. Once, giants lived in the ground. And in the darkness, they fooled Kek, and they took from him the enigma of memes. Kek was angered. And Mars shook. Fire and wind struck down these giants, and they threw their bodies out of the airlock, but in their rage, the gods forgot the secret of memes and left it on the battlefield. We who found it are just men. Not gods. Not giants. Just men. The secret of memes has always carried with it a mystery. You must learn its riddle, Conan. You must learn its discipline. For no one - no one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts.

This you can trust.

>How their internal and external economy works?
They sell their gravity well for slingshots in exchange for nitrates.
Imagine a dwarf economy. Basically, they work to dig to the core to harvest enough iron to dome over the planet. In the meantime they set up the power grid for the accompanying mass driver and laser defense system.
