Military
Due to a relatively peaceful relationship with neighbours along with the remote location, Pongi does not have a large military. However, the Pongian Armed Forces is the main operating arm of the military, which was founded in 1824 after the collapse of the Iobaray Empire. This in turn built up a medium sized army, with a commanding amount of naval ships and fighter jets. Pongi has struggled significantly with the recruitment of people to the army, but with new university incentives and a free degree on offer, numbers are rising. Topping over 200,000 combined soldiers, in which around 50,000 are currently active, Pongi may have the means to fortify itself enough incase of an invasion.
Pongi contains many types of new equipment to replace ageing carriers, aircraft and tanks. The Navy (Sentre de Rygenref azzura) patrols Pongi's section of the Elborra Bay, which is easily one of the largest navies in the region, even without a waterfront position. The Navy also has 3 Aircraft Carriers, rightfully named the RTs Commander, the RTs Swarfzern and the DYp Cliffside. The main army patrolls Pongi's borders with international neighbours, keeping peace within the Elborrabay Region. This includes mandatory patrols of the high mountains, installing new equipment across the plains and training soldiers to help with combat duties. The Pongian Air Force was founded alongside the navy in 1906. It patrols the skies of Pongi to disallow disallowed aircraft above our magnificent airspace.
The army will serve, protect, uphold Pongian values and the integrity of the constitution, as defenders of the land.
Culture
Sport
There are many different sports within Pongi. Usually, there are a few main sports vying for country dominance, in which it has become an interesting tussle between the main football codes.
Skiing is one of Pongi's best sports, in which tourists and locals benefit from lots of untouched, authentic and cheap ski fields.
The native game, Pongipush, is a game focused on goal kicking and tackles, on which it is played on a smaller court. It is known for its fast paced and high scoring movements, which sees a rugby style game with heavy soccer and indigenous influence to create a game with multiple aspects of physicality. It is particularly popular within the north, has many leagues including the National Pongipush League and many smaller district leagues.
Rugby Union is also one of Pongi's favourite games, which it was brought by explorers within the 1750s. It has been a success across Southern Pongi, with many people playing on a weekly basis. Currently it is Pongi's favourite sport, owing to the exceptional performance of the Pongian Rugby Team, which finished 4th in the International Rugby League, and the hosting of the 2023 IRL Championship.
