Well the atmosphere staying put bit is easy, mars has 2/3 earth's gravity, it once had a thicker atmosphere, and was lost over millions of years. So at least there's that.
Obviously the getting the right atmospheric mix and density requires us first to have automated mining in space, which we haven't even started yet.
but that's all you actually need to terraform mars. that and a century or two to complete it

bro you said a century or two.
we can build an underground base in much shorter time span.
in two centuries we'll have underground base on mars, jupiter moon, saturn moon, uranus moon.
