Guerilla warfare in the barren landscape. We liberated ourselves from the Germans in 6 months. Our naval power is also of noticable size, bit is meant for green water purposes.

The Torculmanian military is renowned for its leadership and tactics and also for its defense. Torculmania has a strong military but will rarely attack a nation and its military is used for defense only.
So this is how this works

Cool information.
I use NS stats because the Pacific has a guidebook.
I’m Penguinya, a nation which is themed off of penguins, but we have humans too and aims to build a big military. It's just hard to answer issues correctly sometimes...

Bombing the sh█t out of just about anything. This applies to both terrestrial Synnia and the Initiative, neither are willing to put in the resources to occupy enemy territory so they ensure that whatever was bothering them stays in line for the next few decades by slagging them into the stone age.

Hi, it's been a while. If you're seeing this then it means what I'm working on is not quite done yet. You can still read my old stuff but it's probably not canon anymore. I'll try to get something up soon. It may or may not involve wizards.

Guerilla resistance. The whole National People's Army has been built around the idea of total national defense. We do not have the means to wage an aggressive war, but nobody will ever occupy our national territory succesfully. The traditions from the second world war, our victory over the nazis.

Being somewhat a pacifist, the nation has only a few men serving in the military.
The Air Navy has the most spending and is considered to be crucial to the Haremish Defense Forces.
The nation has a technologically advanced military from reverse engineering a crash-landed alien ship.

Technically every able-bodied citizen is considered a part of the "militia", but service is always voluntary. Basically, because of the small size of our military, citizens are organized and trained by the government to defend their communities, and assigned areas of the Island. The militia isn't really good at much except being heavily armed (like all citizens) and being very spirited about defending the Islands (because the areas they would be defending is their home).

The small, professional military is best at covert operations, asymmetrical warfare, and assassinations. We aren't large enough to get involved in foreign conflicts, but we're just big enough to protect our interests abroad and keep ourselves from being threatened.

Not being asked to return the naval fleet after the 2039 Articles of Secession. Also logistics, what with being able to built a whole fleet of nuclear powered vessels without having cheap access to oil and having to synthesize plastics from seawater and carbon dioxide. As for the Army, well, how well do you imagine a whole military comprised of sharpshooting hicks who got their first gun as a 9th birthday present and who have legal access to explosives might go?

Our military excels in sheer size, being 300 million strong. It also has highly advanced technology, being in the late 22nd century. Our elite troops are exceptionally skilled at combat and have an undefeatable morale. We also excel in brutality, committing war crimes wherever we can.
Shrek may or may not have killed three hundred million people
tl;dr - after nuclear war, corrupt oligarchical hellhole emerges. ogre leads revolution, kills oligarchs after civil war, improves quality of life with progressive social policies and industrialization. couple foreign invasions, assassination attempts, personal losses, and rebellions later, ogre goes psychotic and kills anyone he’s sus of. then a fascist midget invades and kills third of the population, ogre manages to defeat him but goes completely bonkers.
now we got a hyper-totalitarian hyper-militaristic industrial hive-mind quasi-slave state that the ogre 70 years ago would be horrified at

Mobility - many of our people are nomads, and historically almost all were. Our military tradition reflects this. We are masters of maneuver, the feigned retreat, fighting retreat, evasion, flanking, redevelopment, etc. Invaders will operate on the information that a certain unit has been spotted at a particular place, but by the time they act, that unit could be halfway across the country... or right athwart their supply lines! The mass of firepower that larger and more militaristic nations can bring to bear will hit nothing but the spot we previously were, like trying to punch mist.

But it’s not just the military that is unusually mobile. We have emergency plans to rapidly move entire industries and urban populations across the country, and what cannot be relocated can be destroyed, leaving nothing for the enemy. Since our main nourishment is cat milk, our cloth is cat wool, and our shelter can easily be a tent woven of the same wool like in the days of old, we can supply our civilian and military populations with the essentials even while engaged in such scourched-earth operations.

Stealth/concealment - whether it is the individual soldier demonstrating a mastery of field craft, or units practicing the fine art of ambush, stealth has ancient roots in cat-herder warfare. This means that invaders can never truly secure ground or their supply chain.

In modern days, our navy and special forces also practice stealth at a world-class level.

Weaknesses: on the other hand, we under-invest in static defense, only fortifying in a few key locations. Furthermore we currently have an all-volunteer military without the population to be a super power, so it will always take time for the number of trained personnel to catch up to the need in times of crisis. Our biggest weakness is power projection, as our navy lacks aircraft carriers, focusing on sinking enemy invaders, harassing their shipping, and lobbing nukes at their coastal cities from underwater. We rely on diplomacy to acquire use of power projection infrastructure.

Absolute destruction well now at least. You see a long time ago when the Chief Justice was gaining power the Military was not under his control so it was hard to get them on his side but as time went on the more powerful he became as well as brutal he became then the military leadership who opposed his rule disappeared and loyal members replaced them and the military then fell in line.


One example is that we destroyed a planet not just blowing it up but making it absolutely dead no multi or single cell life above on or below the surface along with no water or vital minerals for plants to grow. Then we used special devices to create a runaway greenhouse effect and now you got a planet that is so hot and hostile no one will ever explore or live there again.

We make drones that blast various ice cream truck themes while destroying the enemy.
NS stats are canon. We are not a copy of the United States of America, just a nation with American elements. The large star in the middle of our flag is to symbolize the executive nation as a uniting force while the crown above is to symbolize that this executive nation also has central banking powers. We are still a democratic republic, with a president, two houses of congress, and a judicial branch.
