History

-Established in 1926 by presidential decree the Consortian Armed forces have served TGEC in all matters relating to national defence. The first branch wad the terrestrial one, which at the start only had 60.000 commissioned officers and 100.000 NCOs. Shortly after the Naval Forces were formed, only owning five frigates, 7 corvettes and 10 destroyers.

Despite the small numbers it immediatelly had to go into action during the War of the two Polands, where a revolutionary, ultranationalist Poland was determined to conquer the entirety of Europe, and almost succeded if it wasn't for a small destroyer squad striking a Polish port and discouraging them from agression. The war ended soon after when a combined Coalition force advanced rapidly on Warsaw, marking the end of the war.

During the war The Grand Consortian at the time, GC Matthew Nament, demanded the establishment of an air force. This gave rise to the modern, powerful Consortian airforce which continues to be revered worldwide.

The next great challenge for the armed forces, which had rapidly expanded under the command of Grand Commander Lawrence Donder came when the Kalmar Union invaded TGEC, hoping to get back the territorries occupied in 1900. The war was brutal, with chemical weapons being widely used, but in the end it resulted in a stalemate with a cease-fire being negotiated

Structure

Branches
1. The Terrestrial Forces

The Terrestrial Forces of the Grand Economic Consortium are equipped with a range of cutting-edge equipment designed to ensure supremacy on the ground. Their arsenal includes advanced infantry weapons, such as modular rifles with integrated smart optics and advanced targeting systems. They deploy highly adaptable armored vehicles equipped with composite armor and reactive protection systems. Additionally, their unmanned ground vehicles offer remote reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities, enhancing situational awareness during operations. The terrestrial forces are the backbone of the armed forces, having fought in most wars and engagements.

2. The Grand Navy

The Naval Forces of the Consortium operate a fleet of next-generation warships, submarines, and amphibious assault vessels. These vessels incorporate stealth technology, advanced radar and sensor systems, and long-range precision weaponry. A highlight of the fleet is the use of electromagnetic railguns, which provide unprecedented firepower without the need for traditional propellants. In addition, the Naval Forces maintain a formidable naval aviation wing, comprising carrier-based stealth fighters and maritime patrol aircraft.

3. The Air Force

The Air Force of the Grand Economic Consortium boasts a formidable lineup of aircraft that push the boundaries of aerospace technology. Their fighter jets are equipped with stealth capabilities, advanced avionics, and network-centric warfare systems. These aircraft can seamlessly communicate and share real-time data with ground forces, naval vessels, and other air assets. The Air Force also employs advanced unmanned aerial vehicles for reconnaissance, surveillance, and precision strikes, enhancing their operational versatility.

4. The Space Force

The Space Force's equipment represents the pinnacle of aerospace technology. Their fleet of spacecraft includes multipurpose vehicles capable of deploying satellites, conducting space-based research, and even performing maintenance on orbital infrastructure. Advanced satellite constellations provide global communication, navigation, and surveillance capabilities. The Space Force's spaceplanes enable rapid response and maneuverability for various space missions, including satellite retrieval and repair.

5. The Coast Guard

Equipped with state-of-the-art maritime surveillance and response technology, the Coast Guard of the Grand Economic Consortium ensures the safety of territorial waters and coastal regions. Their patrol vessels are equipped with advanced radar systems, sonar arrays, and automated threat detection. Coastal defense missile systems provide protection against potential maritime threats. The Coast Guard's air assets, including maritime patrol aircraft and helicopters, enhance their ability to monitor and respond to activities in their maritime domain.

Through a continuous commitment to research, development, and innovation, each branch of the Grand Economic Consortium's armed forces showcases the nation's dedication to maintaining a technologically advanced and capable military presence. Their equipment not only guarantees national security but also reinforces their role as a responsible global player, working toward peace and stability in a rapidly evolving world.

Personnel

Chain of Command
The Chain of command is defined by a very centralized authority, with a lot of bureaucracy happening even during wartime. The commander-in-chief is de jure The Grand Consortian, but de facto Adrian Peterson, the Grand Marshal.

The normal chain of command for the Terrestrial forces is (commisioned officers):

-Commander-In-Chief -> Grand Marshal -> Marshal Adjutant -> Grand General (3 stars) -> Grand General (2 stars) -> Grand General (1 star) -> General Second Class (3 stars) - General Second Class (2 stars) -> General Second Class (1 star) -> Grand Major -> Firat Major -> Colonel -> Lieutenant -> Sublieutenant

For the Grand Navy (COs):

-Grand Admiral -> Admiral -> Subadmiral -> Commodore -> Commander -> Commander first class -> Flotilla Commander -> Lieutenat-commander -> lieutenant -> ensign

For the Air Force:

- General of the Air Force -> General -> Lieutenant-General -> Major General -> Brigadier-General -> Colonel -> Lieutenant Colonel -> Major Captain -> First Lieutenant -> Second lieutenant
