The Vetokite Army is the principal land warfare force of Vetok, and one of the four key warfighting parts of the Vetokite Armed Forces along with the Vetokite Imperial Navy, Vetokite Imperial Air Force and Vetokite Strategic Weapons Command.

Modern Army

The Vetokite Army has been a volunteer force since 1997, following the abolition of national service by the hand of Emperor Vetok XII. Although there has been a standing reservists force since the late 1940's, only since the ending of conscription has it adopted a more formal and important role, with a sixth of the Army's combat brigades composed of Territorial personnel following Force Update 2020. With a stripped down composition, the Army of today has moved away from the hidebound ways of old

Public Criticism

The Army has seen much criticism throughout its centuries of service. (Talk about the discomfort when one of the dynasty first implemented it, the involvement in the Tarro Affair of the late 1700's, the failings of the Eastern Marches war of the early 1900's)
