The Armed Forces of Suverina are also called Forţele Armate ale Mare Regat.[1]
Organization
Commander-in-chief and head of the armed forces is Her Majesty Queen Eva I. According to the constitution, the armed forces are subordinate to the Crown. However, this power is qualified by the requirement for parliamentary consent to the maintaining of the armed forces and Parliament's approval of supply of funds. Constitutional convention, however, has vested de facto executive authority, by the exercise of Royal Prerogative powers, in the Secretary of State for Defence.
The administrative body of the armed forces is the Great Queendom's Defence Ministry. However, the General Staff mostly acts as the main commanding and supervising body of the armed forces. The Chief of the General Staff is the chief of staff of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Great Queendom of Suverina.[2] He is appointed by the commander-in-chief, Her Majesty. Current chief of the General Staff is Field marshal Nikolai Dănilă. The chief of staff also acts as main military advisor to the Queen and the Defence Ministry.[3]
Structure
The Armed Forces of the Great Queendom of Suverina consists of seven branches:
- Ground Forces (Forţele Terestre)
- Air Force (Forţele Aeriene)
- Navy (Forţele Navale)
- Strategic Rocket Forces (Forţele Strategice de Rachete)
- Aerospace Defence Forces (Forţelor de Apărare Aerospațiale)
- Airborne Troops (Trupe Aeropurtate)
- National Defence League (Liga Naţională de Apărare)
Each branch have their own respective professional chief. All branches except for the Navy are commonly referred to as 'The Army' (Armata).
Ground Forces
The primary responsibilities of the Ground Forces are the protection of the Queendom's borders, combat on land, the security of occupied territories, and the defeat of enemy troops. The Ground Forces must be able to achieve these goals both in war that includes the use of weapons of mass destruction, especially without the use of weapons of mass destruction. Furthermore, they must be capable of protecting the national interests of the Great Queendom at home and abroad if necessary.
The Ground Forces organizes all First-line units of the land forces. The Second-line land forces are organized by the National Defence League. The Main Command of the Ground Forces consists of the Main Staff of the Ground Troops, and departments for Peacekeeping Forces, Armaments of the Ground Troops, Rear Services of the Ground Troops, Cadres of the Ground Troops, Indoctrination Work, Military Education, Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defence Troops of the Armed Forces, Engineer Troops and Troop Air Defence, as well as several others not worthy to be mentioned.
The Ground Forces are divided into two parts. The main part is the standing army, with its bulk mostly made up of conscripts undergoing military service. But a large part of it is made up of professional soldiers and the Suverin Foreign Legion. The second part is the army reserve, which is divided into the active reserve and the regular reserve.
Air Force
The primary tasks of the Air Force of Suverina are: winning operational air superiority, delivering air strikes against enemy units and facilities, covering troops against enemy air strikes, providing air support to the other branches, disrupting enemy military and state management, damaging and destroying enemy communication, and providing support by air in the form of reconnaissance, air drops, troops, and cargo transportation.
The role of the navy is to protect the interests of Suverina at home and abroad, conducting combat operations at sea and ocean theatres of war, executing the foreign and defence policies of Her Majesty's Government. This is to be achieved through the exercise of military effect, diplomatic activities and other activities in support of these objectives.
As the Great Queendom has declared the Raga Sea as its sphere of influence and that its naval dominance in that sea shall not be threatened by any power, unless authorized by Her Majesty's government, the dominant role of the Suverin Royal Navy is to upkeep dominance in the Raga Sea and discourage any foreign power trying to threaten it. The Great Queendom does however recognize that the Great Holy Empire of Tagmatium has a certain right to conduct unauthorized naval operations in the northern part of the Raga Sea if these operations are conducted in order to secure or protect the canal.
The navy is divided into:
- Surface Fleet
- Submarine Service
- Fleet Air Arm
- Coastal Troops
- Coastal missile and artillery
- Marine Infantry
Strategic Rocket Forces
They are designed for deterrence of a possible aggression and for defeat of strategic objects located in one or more strategic air-space areas and forming the basis of the enemy’s military and military-economic potential by means of large-scale, group or single missile attacks.
Aerospace Defence Forces
The Aerospace Defence Forces is principally new branch of the Armed Forces of the Great Queendom, designed and responsible for air and space defence.

Military service
The Great Queendom has very strict and extensive laws regarding military service. The military service law affects all fit citizens, both men and female, between the ages of 12 and 70.
Obligatory military training begins during the twelveth birth year and is organised by the schools in cooperation with the military. Basic military training is conducted once a month and during the summer all children must attend a three-week military camp.
At the age of fifteen all citizens are eligable for conscription. Between the age of fifteen and eighteen all citizens are required to serve part-time with the National Defence League.
When the age of eighteen all citizens are drafted for service in the armed forces. All male citizens serve for 42 months and all female for 36 months.
When the military service has been completed all citizens must serve two years in the active reserve. Refresher training is then held regularly. When at the age of 50, citizens are no longer obliged to serve in the First-line units and are transfered to the National Defence League.
Oath of Allegiance
When citizens reach the age of fifteen and begin their service with the National Defence League they take an oath of allegiance. The oath is taken once again when citizens are drafted for military service.
The Suverin Fidelity and Allegiance Oath:
"I do promise and swear, by God Almighty and His Holy Gospels, that I always shall be to my true Queen, the Magnificent Ruler, Queen Eva of the Great Queendom of Suverina, and also the Royal House, true and faithful. I shall also with my life and blood defend the Royal form of government as wells as Parliaments rights; all in accordance with the Realms Constitution, which I always shall follow and obey. This I promise to upkeep on my honour and conscience, so help me God to life and spirit."
