Military

Description:

The Republic's federal military is relatively small, being comprised of volunteers, with a total fighting manpower of roughly 20,000 men. It is comprised of twelve regiments of infantry, seven regiments of cavalry and two regiments of artillery. The infantry is organized into three brigades, each containing four regiments, while the cavalry is organized into divisions of two regiments each, with one regiment used as a "reserve" regiment. As of now, most of the troops are deployed along the frontiers or in the nation's capital.

While the military is small, during times of war or during national emergencies the Federal government may call up state troops and militia, allowing it to put large numbers of troops into the field in a relatively short time. Unfortunately, the quality and training of these troops varies, as well as their uniform colors. Potentially, this means that the federal government can, within a month (or even a week or two) of war being declared, the Republic can have over 100,000 troops at their disposable.

The naval arm of the military is still relatively small, but has been built off of the old kingdom's navy. It maintains a forceo f galleys for customs and coastal patrols, but has recently begun constructing frigates for deep sea operations. Last year, the senate approved the funds for the first real ship of the line.
