Branches
The New Roman Imperium military is broken into six branches; five active branches and one reserve: Republic Army, Republic Navy, Republic Air Force, Republic Space Force, Republic Cyber Corps, and Custodes Domicilium.
Republic Army
The Republic Army is the smallest of the branches that sees active combat. Its unit structure is comprised of Legions, where the size of a Legion is equivalent to a brigade in other militaries.
The Republic Navy is the largest branch of the NRI's military. It is responsible for protecting the maritime interests of the NRI. The gargantuan navy is comprised of two major commands: the Territorial Water Defense Command (TWDC) and the Foreign Interest Defense Command (FIDC). Both commands have sub commands that include, but are not limited to, surface, subsurface, and air commands.
The Republic Navy also has a marine infantry force. These forces are responsible for providing security on naval ships and installations as well as ship interdiction and boarding operations. The Naval Marines are critical in the Anti-Piracy and Anti-Human Trafficking initiatives.
Republic Air Force
The Republic Air Force is the second largest branch of the New Roman Armed Forces. This branch's primary purpose is defense of the Roman continent from attack. The air forces train primarily in air-to-air and anti-shipping operations. Though Air-to-ground is covered in the anti-shipping training, it is not a primary focus of the RRAF. The two major commands are Air Combat Command and Ocean Combat Command. The bulk of the military are fighter and interceptor aircraft. There is a small number of bomber aircraft as well.
Republic Space Force
The Republic Space Force is a medium sized force responsible for the design and control of Roman Military satellites, Space Traffic Control, range support, and space-based military operations. They control the orbital weapons platforms known colloquially as "Jupiter's Bolts" as well as the NRI's ICBM fleet. The Republic Space Force was spun off from the Republic Air Force in 2012, and incorporated elements from the Republic Army and Navy. The command and rank structure were taken from the Navy.
The Republic Space Force also has a marine element. The Space Marine force is responsible for security at Space Force installations and habitable space satellites. These Space Marines train for combat scenarios in various exo-atmosphere locations, such as LEO, MEO, GEO, Lunar Orbit, and Lunar Surface. About 25% of the citizens on the Roman Lunar Territory are Space Marines.
Republic Cyber Corps
The Republic Cyber Corps is the newest and smallest branch of the Roman Armed Forces. They were founded in 2019 as an amalgamation of all cyber branches from each of the Armed Forces. The Republic Cyber Corps has three commands: Blue Team Command, Red Team Command, and Purple Team Command. The majority of the branch is the Blue Team, reacting and responding to cyber threats to the NRI. They do, however, have a capable Red Team, that has retaliated against attacks on the NRI. The Corps' administrative branch, called the Purple Team, provides communication between the Red and Blue Teams. Additionally, they provide rapid support to either team during an incident, if it is needed. The Chief of Staff, Minister of Cyber, and associated staff are considered part of the Purple Team.
Custodes Domicilium
The Custodes Domicilium is the reserve component of the Roman Armed Forces. This branch is made up of civilians who train once a month and 2 weeks a year. The Custodes Domicilium is designed to be called up in the event of an invasion to supplement the Republic Army. Citizens can join the Custodes Domicilius straight out of Secondary School. If a citizen serves in one of the armed forces, upon retirement, they are automatically placed into the Custodes Domicilius until age 45. This is to ensure the NRI has a large capable fighting force in the event of an invasion. It has the added benefit of combating obesity among veterans.
