Sieuxerr, known offically as the Imperial State of Sieuxerr, is a sovereign nation.

Etymology

The name "Sieuxerr" is a corruption of "Sans cesse", which is Merovingian for constantly, or forever. The meaning behind it stems from the Kingdom of Sieuxerr, which was used to describe that the land holdings of the kingdom would last forever. The name remained in used with the revolution, being used in the same manor.

History

Modern Sieuxerrian history is agreed to begin around 250 CE, as near two centuries of warfare and strife come to an end following the collaspe of the Republic of Reynes. In the emerging peace of the years following, the House of Frank establishes the Kingdom of the Franks, which commands much of modern Sieuxerr and portions of the land of the former Republic of Reynes.

The Kingdom of Sieuxerr would be split in 1799 during the Sieuxerrian Revolution. The majority of lands going to the new Directorate of Sieuxerr with the remaining royalty fleeing to the new Kingdom of Saintonge. However, the early state was plagued by outside invasions and internal devolution. In 1804, only five years after the establishment of the Directorate, then-General Napoléon Bonaparte and other government officials and military leaders launched a bloodless coup in December which established the new Consulate of Sieuxerr. Within a few months however, Napoléon took power himself, establishing himself as the Emperor of the Merovingians. This brought in the establishment of the Imperial Senate and People of Sieuxerr.

The Sieuxerrian Armed Forces (Forces Armées Sieuçaise Impériales) are the military and paramilitary forces of Sieuxerr. The supreme commander is the Emperor of the Merovingians, Napoleon VII. The armed forces consists of the Sieuxerrian Army (Armée de Terre), the Sieuxerrian Navy (Marine Nationale), the Sieuxerrian Air Force (Armée de l'Air), and finally the National Gendarmerie (Gendarmerie Nationale) which also fulfills certain civilian police duties. It is one the largest and most advanced armed forces in the Able Vigil Accords.

The National Gendarmerie is apart of the armed forces and acts as the military police force of all the branches. It also has a counter-terrorism role and has a number of units dedicated to certain specialized actions. There are other specialized units that are apart of the Gendarmerie as well. This includes the Republican Guard (Garde républicaine), which are responsible for protection of major government buildings, the Maritime Gendarmerie (Gendarmerie maritime) which act as the Coast Guard, and finally the Gendarmerie of the Imperial Guard (Gendarmerie de la Garde Impériale), which serve as a specific protection detail to government officials, palaces and homesteads of important officials, and the family of the Emperor and their family.

The primary intelligence gathering agency of the Armed Forces is the Directorate-General for Studies and Research (Direction générale des études et recherches) which handles external security and intelligence gathering operations. It works together with its internal intelligence gathering sibling, the Directorate-General for Internal Security (Direction générale de la sécurité intérieure) which is under the auspices of National Secuirty (Sûreté nationale), which is the direct all-civilian counterpart to the National Gendarmerie.

Since 1994 there has not been a national conscription program in active use. However there stands the ability to restart the program if the need would arise.

In terms of military industry, Sieuxerr is a massive exporter. Developing and producing carriers, fighter aircraft and main battle tanks it also actively exports these on open markets. Since the 1980s, a move towards a unified structure of development and production has caused Sieuxerr and other AVA states to closely work together on many projects.
