Wilhelm Lindenthal (*1848, †1899) was a Mergan aviation pioneer. By making well-documented, repeated, successful flights with gliders, he developed the concept of the modern wing and produced the first airplanes "heavier than air".

Peter Malkom (*1899, †1988) was a Mergan transport entrepreneur. In 1931, he developed the concept of the modern intermodal shipping container after buying his first truck. Malkom emigrated to Paroy in 1937, from where his invention became an international standard and led to the cargo unit Paroyan proportionate entity. The shipping container led to a significant reduction in the cost of freight transportation and also improved reliability. Thus it revolutionized transport and international trade in the second half of the twentieth century.

Christoph von Reithmann (*1822, †1902) was a highly respected watchmaker. He invented the four-stroke engine in 1863 and produced engines, before his Reithmann Motoren Gesellschaft was merged with Aubach in 1879.

August Schagendorff (*1858, †1943) designed a fully automatic railway coupling in 1905. Known as Schagendorff coupler (Mergan: Schagendorffkupplung, abbreviated Schaku), it is superior due to the automatic pneumatic and electrical connections and disconnections and is used nowadays by many railways worldwide.
