The Velikiymarshal (Slavic:Велкилымаршал, lit. Grand Marshal) was a special title and rank that existed between the years of 1941 and 2021 for the commander of the Shturmikov, and previously existed from 1931 to 1941 as the commander of the Okhrana Zala.

Definition

The early Slavic Union Party was largely motivated by aesthetics, as proved by the uniforms of the Okhrana Zala and the Marshal system of rankings within the organization, which was meant to signify that the group was above the regular army.

Duties

The Velikymarshal was the supreme leader of the Shturmikov and reported directly to the Vozhd, and as such was not subject to any checks and balances. which was already a powerful position from it's inception and only grew more powerful over the years, peaking in power under the Velikymarshalship of Myron Matveyev, who utilized his position to become a kingmaker in Slavic politics, blackmailing multiple politicians and holding so much power that Vozhd's were unable to remove him from his position until 1974 when Vozhd Vasily Osipov had him assassinated by one of his own Taygopol agents. The Velikymarshal was responsible for all internal security within the Slavic Union.

The Velikymarshal oversaw the various branches of the Shturmikov, including the Taygopol, the Union Court Main Office, the Personnel Office, the Loyalty Office, the Protection Unit, the Okhotnik, the Shtrafbat, and several others.
