History
After a failed government coup attempt on August 1st, 1859, Bentho experienced a significant turning point in its history that led to the establishment of the Benthenses Armed Forces. The failed coup, orchestrated by a group seeking to seize control of the government and impose an authoritarian regime, ignited a strong determination among the people to protect their hard-earned freedom and build a stable democracy.
In the aftermath of the failed coup, the government swiftly realized the necessity of a dedicated defense force to safeguard the nation's sovereignty and maintain internal security. Recognizing the importance of upholding democratic values, the leaders of Bentho embarked on the process of restructuring the existing military apparatus to ensure its loyalty to the democratic ideals and the people of Bentho.
