The United States of Sera Military, Seran Armed Forces (SAF), and colloquially known as the Royal Armed Forces (RAF) is the designated military forces for the United States of Sera. The armed forces contains five active service branches: the Royal Army, Royal Marines, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, and the Valkiri Royal Guard. Although Sera has a coast guard, the coast guard is organized and run by the Department of National Security instead of the Department of War. The Prime Minister of the USS acts as the High Commander for the Seran Armed Forces and dictates military policy, tactics, regulations, and protocols with the Chairman of the Board of Defense Ministers, Secretary of War, and Director of National Security. During rare occurrences, the Monarch of Sera is granted the ability to lead the armed forces in the Prime Minister's stead. However, such an occasion can only be granted by Parliament in the event that the acting Prime Minister is found incompetent or otherwise incapable of fulfilling their duties.

After being formed on June 7th, 1741 on Unification Day, the SAF have played a pivotal role in Seran and world history. The shared identity and mission of the branches provided much needed unity to the newly formed nation and offered structure and discipline to the newly created warrior caste. The branches served the nation for over 200 years by defending the people from secessionists during the early 1800s during the Secessionist War, protected the borders during the anti-piracy operations of the early 2000s, and defeated the rouge nation Sparta Eternal during the Invasion of Sparta in the middle of 2021.

The SAF boasts some of the most well-trained military forces in the world due to the devoted Warrior Caste that makes up the majority of active duty personnel. These soldiers spend their free time training, honing their skills, and perfecting their form and disciple at all hours of the day when not actively engaged in operations. Although not as technically advanced as other nations or as large, the SAF also relies on a national conscription program that can mobilize a vast number of individuals regardless of caste. Moreover, the conscription program of all adults turning 18 into the SAF ensures that every civilian (barring those with disability) receives military training and are required by law to be recertified with weapon handling every five years to maintain proficiency.

The United States of Sera Royal Army, also called the Royal Army, Royal Seran Army, US Army, and Union Army is the land service branch of the Seran military beneath the Department of War and Board of Defense Ministers. It is one of the 4 uniformed services operating under the Department of War in the United States of Sera, and one of the 6 total uniformed services in current operation. The Royal Army is headed by the Chief of the Army, a member of the Board of Defense Ministers and the highest-ranking army officer and the Secretary of the Royal Army. The Royal Army was officially established on June 7th, 1741 by the ratification of the Articles of Federation which laid out the organization, mission, and responsibilities for the Royal Seran Army.

The Royal Army is the oldest service branch of the Seran Armed Forces and takes seniority over the other branches barring the Valkiri Royal Guard. Established after the unification of the Seran tribes, the modern Seran Royal Army considers itself a direct continuation of the Union Army which was established with the Confederation of Seran Tribes in 1386. When the Quadrumvirate relinquished power to the new monarchy and Parliament, Parliament passed the "National Defense Act" on June 7th, 1741 which established many of the branches of the military still in operation to this day.

The Royal Army is part of the Department of the Royal Army which serves to lead, organize, and strategize with the other 3 departments operating under the Department of National Security and Department of War. The Royal Army is led by the highest-ranking army officer who also serves of the Board of Defense Ministers. It is the largest military branch by manpower, and is projected to remain so despite the growing recruitment numbers for the Royal Air Force and Royal Navy.

History

In the early half of Quadrumvirate rule in the present day capital of Kito'Bahari, the four chieftains in response to growing external threats to the Union of Seran Tribes, established the first Unified Army of Sera. Before the establishment of a national army, each state in the Seran Union provided their own troops and commanders for national defense. These commanders were prone to disagreements with each other, while soldiers from different tribes would routinely fight amongst themselves due to cultural differences. The Quadrumvirate sought to nullify the worst offenders by removing them from their position and sending them to prison to avoid possible coups against the Quadrumvirate. Soon thereafter, new commanders were appointed from within the tribes to take their place with a particular focus on unification and standardization over individualization and cultural differences.

Originally, the US Army handled both peacekeeping tasks domestically within the first tribal states while also juggling the demands of protecting the borders around the fledgling country from the neighboring violent tribes of ancient Adula. The Quadrumvirate, fearing nepotism, instituted a system amongst Sera's warriors that rewarded soldiers with prestige, wealth, and position for accomplishing certain tasks. These tasks included bringing the heads of enemy war-leaders, scalps, securing weaponry, repelling attacks, and spear-heading successful raids against enemy territories. Due to the ferocity at which Seran warriors pursued enemy heads and scalps, a reputation began to grow amongst their neighbors surrounding Seran brutality in war.

This reputation continued to grow as the Union of Sera entered into a war with the neighboring Nafuni Ze'teca Tribe known as the Seran-Ze'teca Extermination War. The conflict broke out when the Nafuni Ze'teca tribe crossed the Adula Mountains and entered into the Mbaku controlled tribe-lands. The Ze'teca immediately began to pillage and destroy any villages they came across and murdered any Seran inhabitants they captured. The newly formed national army was dispatched to combat the Ze'tecas. The Seran Army clashed several times over the next four years with the Ze'tecas; each time the officers in charge of the Seran soldiers ordered that no mercy be shown. Eventually, this harsh treatment of the Ze'teca would lead to the near total annihilation of the Nafuni Ze'teca nation as the Seran Army chased them across the mountains into their homeland. Although victorious, the Quadrumvirate quickly did away with the practice of rewarding soldiers for heads and scalps, partially due to the shame of nearly committing genocide.

Structure and Mission

As established in the Articles of Federation, the purpose of the Royal Seran Army is described as:

  • Maintaining the peace and security of the nation
  • Providing for the defense of Unified Sera, its territories, people, and possessions,
  • Combating any hostile power, organization, or nation that would do harm to the nation or to its people.

The Royal Seran Army's five core competencies are prompt and sustained land combat, combined arms operations (to include combined arms maneuver and wide–area security, armored and mechanized operations and airborne and air assault operations), special operations, to set and sustain the theater for the joint force, and to integrate national, multinational, and joint power on land.
