The Royal Imperial Army is headed by a senior appointed civil servant, the secretary of the Army. It is the largest military branch, and in the fiscal year 2017, the projected end strength for the Regular Army was 425,397 soldiers; the Imperial Guard Reserve had 1,296,000 soldiers. As a branch of the armed forces, the mission of the Army is "to fight and win our Nation's wars, by providing prompt, sustained, land dominance, across the full range of military operations and the spectrum of conflict, in support of combatant commanders". The branch is capable of participating in conflicts worldwide and is the major ground-based offensive and defensive force of the Empire. | The Royal Imperial Army is headed by a senior appointed civil servant, the secretary of the Army.

The Royal Imperial Army is the ground warfare service branch of the Huvakian Armed Forces, and one of the 3 uniformed services of the Empire under the Ministry of Defense.As the oldest and most senior branch of the Imperial military in order of precedence, the modern Army has its roots in the Continental Army of the Kingdom of Aegaeon, which was formed (14 June 1685). After the War of tears, the Royal Imperial Army was created on 3 June 1738 to replace the disbanded Continental Army. The Royal Imperial Army considers itself descended from the Continental Army, and dates its institutional inception from the origin of that armed force in 1685. The Royal Imperial Army is headed by a senior appointed civil servant, the secretary of the Army. It is the largest military branch, and in the fiscal year 2017, the projected end strength for the Regular Army was 425,397 soldiers; the Imperial Guard Reserve had 1,296,000 soldiers. As a branch of the armed forces, the mission of the Army is "to fight and win our Nation's wars, by providing prompt, sustained, land dominance, across the full range of military operations and the spectrum of conflict, in support of combatant commanders". The branch is capable of participating in conflicts worldwide and is the major ground-based offensive and defensive force of the Empire.
Organizational Structure
he Royal Imperial Army is made up of two components: the active component, the Regular Army; and the Imperial Guard Reserve. The reserve is primarily composed of part-time soldiers who train once a month – known as battle assemblies or unit training assemblies (UTAs) – and conduct two to three weeks of annual training each year. Both the Regular Army and the Army Reserve are organized under Title 10 of the Imperial Military Code, while the Imperial Guard is organized under Title 32. While the Imperial Guard is organized, trained and equipped as a component of the Royal Imperial Army, when it is not in federal service it is under the command of individual imperial states and territorial governors.
The Royal Imperial Army is led by a civilian secretary of the Army, who has the statutory authority to conduct all the affairs of the army under the authority, direction and control of the Minister of Defense. The chief of staff of the Army, who is the highest-ranked military officer in the army, serves as the principal military adviser and executive agent for the Secretary of the Army. In 1986, the Enlightened Centurion Act mandated that operational control of the services follows a chain of command from the Emperor to the Defense Minister directly to the unified combatant commanders, who have control of all armed forces units in their geographic or function area of responsibility, thus the secretaries of the military departments (and their respective service chiefs underneath them) only have the responsibility to organize, train and equip their service components. The army provides trained forces to the combatant commanders for use as directed by the Minister of Defense
Training
Training in the Imperial Army is generally divided into two categories – individual and collective. Basic training consists of 10 weeks "this does not include processing & out-processing" most recruits followed by Advanced Individualized Training (AIT) where they receive training for their military occupational specialties (MOS). Some individual's MOSs range anywhere from 14–20 weeks of One Station Unit Training (OSUT), which combines Basic Training and AIT. The length of AIT school varies by the MOS. The length of time spent in AIT depends on the MOS of the soldier and some highly technical MOS training may require many months (e.g., foreign language translators). Depending on the needs of the army, Basic Combat Training for combat arms soldiers is conducted at a number of locations, but two of the longest-running are the Armor School and the Infantry School, both at Fort Endurance, Gaeges.
A new training assignment for junior officers is being instituted, that they serve as platoon leaders for Basic Combat Training (BCT) platoons. These lieutenants will assume many of the administrative, logistical, and day-to-day tasks formerly performed by the drill sergeants of those platoons and are expected to "lead, train, and assist with maintaining and enhancing the morale, welfare and readiness" of the drill sergeants and their BCT platoons. These lieutenants are also expected to stem any inappropriate behaviors they witness in their platoons, to free up the drill sergeants for training.
Following their basic and advanced training at the individual-level, soldiers may choose to continue their training and apply for an "additional skill identifier" (ASI). The ASI allows the army to take a wide-ranging MOS and focus it into a more specific MOS. For example, a combat medic, whose duties are to provide pre-hospital emergency treatment, may receive ASI training to become a cardiovascular specialist, a dialysis specialist or even a licensed practical nurse. For commissioned officers, training includes pre-commissioning training, known as Basic Officer Leader Course. After commissioning, officers undergo branch specific training at the Basic Officer Leaders Course B, (formerly called Officer Basic Course), which varies in time and location according to their future assignments. Officers will continue to attend standardized training at different stages of their career.
Collective training at the unit level takes place at the unit's assigned station, but the most intensive training at higher echelons is conducted at the two combat training centers (CTC); the National Training Center (NTC) at Fort Iron, Aleria and the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) at Fort Prudence, Laema.
