 Agarntrop 1790 2012 N/A N/A Conscription was originally established as two years of service for all 16-year-old Agarn boys in the new constitution of 1790, however, until the industrial revolution this was not enforced in most of Agarntrop as the pre-industrial sparsity was too difficult. Once cities became bigger conscription became commonplace and full enforcement began in 1902. There were many movements protesting conscription that managed to gain ground in the 1960s, the ADC government pledged to abolish it in 1969. However, following the 1970 elections and the 1973 boxing day coup the practice was once again rigourous with no end in sight. After the Agarn civil war, it was expected the new rebel government would abolish conscription, but they only changed it's nature by lowering it's required time to 6 months, making it a non-combat role and raising the age to 18. Following a conscription crisis its enforcement was ended in 1992 and it was eventually officially abolished by an amendment to the constitution in 2012. However, that amendment states conscription can be reinstated if the government deems "the Agarn state under threat" and would also enforce it for women.
 Aziallis 1692 N/A 24 months Yes Stuff about it
Flag of Germany.svg Axmanie 1864 N/A 9 months Yes Conscription was first instated in Axmanie in the wake of rising international tensions between Axmanie and former colonizer Kaiserreich. Fearing a potential invasion, then president Helmuth von Leuthenberg drafted a bill known as the Wehrpflichtgesetz (military conscription act) which mandated that every man had to serve in the army for a period of twelve months. Since then, there have been numerous attempts to repeal the law, but they've always failed. A popular referendum to end conscription in 2011 was rejected by more than 70% of the voters.
Clant Griandland 36 months Yes Service is voluntary, but citizen that has year(s) being repetition at school is compulsory to do the conscription
 Ganji Islands 1960 N/A 15 months No Conscription is compulsory for men, but for women it's voluntary. 40% of the women choose to serve in the army. Usually people serve when they finish their secondary or tertiary education, usually at 18-24 years old.
Hyrtexia 1922 N/A 18 months No Conscription was established upon the formation of the Socialist Federal Republic and is a key part of Hyrtexian culture. A boy is seen to become a man when he has served his first 18 months in the army, starting at the age of 16, right at the end of secondary school studies, and before tertiary education.
Mesadora 1883 1885 N/A N/A Mesadora has been without a standing military for nearly its entire national existence. The state religion generally forbids violent actions by its members, and thus a standing military would be antithetical. The state is defended by neighbouring trade partners and by the general worthlessness of the land occupied.
 Nerany 1954 N/A 10 months Yes N/A
 Neuewland 1706 N/A Varies Yes Conscription is not usually in effect, but during times of emergency, the Plutocratic council instates a conscription law which conscripts up to 10% of the Neuew population, randomly selected among all adults between 16 to 40, into the military, usually to be used as filler for the spaztverces and landarbeiters to work alongside of. This law dates all the way back to the early 1700s, when the Merchant Princes of Neuewland began consolidating the islands that composed the de jure High Kingdom of Neuewland.
Paslin 1950 N/A 24 months Yes Conscription is in effect; however, Paslin has kept a small army, and instead usually trains the recruits, so they can be ready to be called up and go through training much quicker should the need arise. All civilians aged 16 to 42 have to undergo conscription unless they don't have citizenship yet.
 Sacrofnia 1620 N/A 15 months Yes "The workouts are harder than any battlefield"

 Wolfgalia 1961 N/A 12 months Yes Wolfgalian military training and service is mandatory for a period of one year, accepted any time between the ages of 18 and 24 for all citizens. This owes mostly to the smaller size and more skill oriented focus of the military and the Galea belief that all people should be able to defend themselves in any circumstance, be it life-threatening or trivial.
Mokingpudova 1882 N/A N/A Yes Mokingpudova believes that no citizen should be forced to work for something they don't want.
