The 3rd Division or 3rd Rubrumian Infantry Division is a division of the Rubrumian Army that first served during the First Europan War. Its units and command are responsible for the mobilisation of all army units in the provinces of Manitoba, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Lucis Colombia. It is one of the principle divisions of the Rubrumian Army.

It was first created during the First Europan War, after which it was delegated to reserve until the 1930s, when the Rubrumian Army began the process of conscription in response to rising tensions with Imperial powers. During the Second Europan War it primarily saw action in the Europan Theatre Campaign under the command of General Murakamo Susaya. In 1938, it was originally supposed to be sent to the Scandinavian Front and command would fall under then Major-General Harry Kurosawa but instead the 4th Rubrumian Armoured Division was sent being that the 3rd was required by Susaya to remain in Europa. It wasn't until in 1943, when the Rubrumian government requested the transfer of 3 Rubrumian divisions to aid Task Force Gimle. The command of the contingent fell under General Kurosawa and the merged formations with the Rubrumian-Jutlandish Task Force resulted in the creation of the Third Rubrumian Army.

The 3rd Division had its first action in Joyonghea by landing at Dongmak Beach where the 3rd Division spearheaded the landings and subsequently moving further inland as it got close to the Joyonghean capital of Yeolcheon. It was also one of the principle divisions that led their commander's famous Operation Surrogate or better known as Kurosawa's March to the North. It also gained notoriety for securing the last Eastern Joyonghean city during the Battle of Chongjin and subsequently aiding the border crossing to Churuongchandat during Operation Spearhead.

Following EWII, it would see action during the War of Lorican Aggression and in the contemporary Imperial Crisis. Today, it is one of the Rubrumian Divisions that serve as part of the Erebonian and Rubrumian Army Corps, being one of the Divisions currently stationed in Erebonia.
