Main Article: Emmerian Army

The Emmerian Army (established in 1540) is the largest branch of the Emmerian Armed Forces, with 503,000 active and 1,273,900 reserve personnel. It has the highest percentage of conscripts out of all the major branches, especially in (reserve) light infantry formations. However it retains a highly trained and experienced cadre of commissioned and non-commissioned officers, along with various specialized units.

The army operates 3,150 tanks, 9,913 armored fighting vehicles, over 5,500 artillery pieces and 1,431 helicopters. Its personnel and equipment are organised into four field armies, which are divided into corps, divisions and brigades. There are a total of 23 active division (8 armored, 5 mechanized, 2 mountain, 1 airborne and 1 air assault) and 9 reserve force commands (with brigades, regiments and district defense commands), which assume the role of divisions in wartime. 6 active and 5 reserve combat aviation brigades support land forces at the corps level.

Around half of the army's forces are deployed near the border with Estovakia, to counter the extensive deployment of Estovakian land units in the region.

Main Article: Royal Emmerian Marines (REM)

The Royal Emmerian Marines (established in 1664) is the amphibious warfare force of the Emmerian Armed Forces, with 49,400 active and 16,000 reserve personnel. As the second largest marine force in the world, it is organized into 2 Marine Expeditionary Forces and 3 security battalions, deployed in the marine sectors of REN naval bases. While nominally independent, it closely cooperates with, and in wartime is commanded by, the Royal Emmerian Navy.

Royal Emmerian Marines training and doctrine is similar to that of the OMC, focusing on physical and mental fitness, the ability to achieve objectives in small groups, and potential operations on foreign shores. Along with airborne and special forces, the is usually the first ground force to be deployed for foreign interventions.

The REM operates similar land equipment to the Emmerian Army, and also operates various fixed-wing, tilt-rotor and rotary-wing aircraft. REM troop contingents protect ports and embark on REN amphibious warfare ships, and REM pilots operate from both Naval Air Stations and the decks of amphibious assault ships or aircraft carriers.
