The Royal Transcandarian Navy (Transcandarian: Kraliyet Donanması), is the naval warfare service branch of the Transcandarian Armed Forces.
The navy can trace its lineage back to the first Transcandarian fleets to sail the Brassidan Gulf in the late 11th century, and the fleets of the Türük beyliks in the 13th century. However, the modern naval traditions and customs of the Transcandarian Navy can be traced back to 17th century. Since July 1820's, the service has been officially known as the Royal Transcandarian Navy.
