History

Pre-History

The earliest known human settlement in Vozh dates back 38,000 years. The first humans are believed to have crossed a land-bridge from Aurica. They are known to have lived in both settled and nomadic communities. Some prehistoric towns are believed to have reached as many as 20,000 inhabitants. They are the likely ancestors of the modern Chervenitsi, Castarcid, and Slavonic peoples. Though trade with the Halkeginians was frequent throughout the ages, the continent does not appear to have been extensively explored by outside powers until the exploratory expeditions of the Numidic and Aurician Empires in the early first Milennium.

Archaeological evidence shows the extensive funerary tributes involving snake-like and draconic figures, leading anthropologists to conclude that snakes were a sacred animal in ancient Halkeginian societies, with some going so far as to propose a widespread 'snake cult'.

Military

The Vozhsk Armed Forces are divided into four branches; the Royal Army, Royal Navy, Royal Aerospace Forces, and National Guard. As of September 2016, it has over 1,907,000 active-duty, and 1.4 million reserve personnel. All citizens of either sex between the ages of 18 and 28 are obligated to serve 13 months in the Armed Forces. Vozh is not known to possess nuclear weapons, although it is believed to possess a large strategic reserve of chemical and biological weapons, as well as a significant fleet of modern and semi-modern strategic bombers. Vozh also possesses a small fleet of submarines and is rumoured to be looking to develop an aircraft-carrier force.

Vozhsk tank forces are natively referred to as "cavalry". They inherit much of the traditions of earlier Vozhsk Uhlan and Hussar formations, even retaining the latter as the title of the basic enlisted cavalryman and with the traditional parade uniform of the cavalryman much resembling those of the traditional tribal cossack militias. Vozh is estimated to possess 3,500 modern Main Battle Tanks, with a large reserve of obsolete tanks dating back as far as the 1960s.

The United Kingdoms also possess a significant and highly modern native arms industry, with an estimated 60% of their military equipment being produced domestically.

The military's budget is estimated at about 36.2 billion NSD, or 4.1% of the country's GDP.
