The Stone Pirate's or PK (Northern Ivili: Posukoşoti) is a paramilitary non-profit organization supported by the State. It serves to act as a military organization independent of the Stonish Army, occasionally being known to participate in various recreational activities such as Shooting Sports or Weapons Training in Flatstone.
Foundation
The Posukoşoti were created by Stonish King Andesen Von Stone in 1214 during the First Stonish War of Unification in order to fulfill his need for a primarily naval-based ground force capable of conducting extensive military operations throughout the Şotīko archipelago. The organization saw huge amounts of success initially, most notably during their collaboration with Stonish Noble Gejt Kok in his defense of northern-occupied Southern-Ivili territory, and under the command of Andesen Von Stone during his victory in Suntugā Bay.
Activity during Stonish Invasion of Hoterallia
The Posukoşoti saw limited action during Flatstone's first invasion of Hoterallia, participating in over a dozen minor military operations off of the Hoterallian coast, most notably of which was the first Stonish landings in Hoterallia. In cooperation with Andesen I's forces, two islands off the coast of Hoterallia were successfully occupied in order to be utilized as staging points for an invasion of the mainland in the future. From this point on, the Posukoşoti would remain restricted to naval operations off the coast, at no point participating in either of the Stonish landings in Saipoi or Ryuiki. The Posukoşoti would suffer it's first military loss since it's creation during the Second Battle of the Sunadic against Hoterallia when the Stonish battlefleet was obliterated during it's attempt to withdrawal to Şotīgābon.
Transformation into a Paramilitary Organization
For the entirety of it's existence up until the 20th century, the Posukoşoti had acted as a mercenary company politically tied to the Stonish Crown, however when the King of Flatstone outlawed mercenary companies, the Posukoşoti were forced to adapt, adopting the status of paramilitary organization in correspondence with the nations laws as well as taking the time to modernize the organizations policies resulting in the creation of the Collaborators Division, a branch of the organization comprised of volunteers from the working class, primarily railroad workers and others who worked in industrial environments. Alongside this, the organization would be divided into two main "Regiments", both of which having their own individual bases, operations, and leadership. These new regiments being the Posukoşoti Regiment and the Umokosu Regiment. These two regiments were much more strict on recruitment qualifications, only accepting veterans who had served in the Stonish Armed Forces prior to their entry into the organization; This included individuals who had been dishonorably discharged.
Service during the Stonish Civil War
The Posukoşoti would partake in the 2011 Stonish Civil War on the side of the Stonish Crown, participating in the Umokosu Offensive against Republican Forces, however political unrest prior to the outbreak of the war lead to lackluster recruitment efforts and the Posukoşoti were unable to maintain their status as an organized paramilitary throughout the duration of the war, only managing to recollect their assets in the years following its conclusion.
Modern Day
Today, the Posukoşoti have maintained their political ties to the Stonish Crown, reasserting themselves as a paramilitary organization. As of 2020, their numbers have reached higher then ever, with 7,000 members actively participating in the organization. This number dwarfs the original 700 or so men that originally volunteered for service in the Posukoşoti during the First Stonish War of Unification. High-Ranking officials within the Posukoşoti have participated in a variety of talk-shows throughout Flatstone, even appearing on national television in an interview with king Dag Von Stone himself in July of 2019.
