England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, those other pesky Mick bastards, Wales, Norway, Sweden and Denmark under one name. :3 It'd probably work, actually, because somewhere along the line pretty much every royal family is related to another one. For example, George V of England's mother was Danish, and her sister was Tsar Nicholas II's mum. Then there was Kaiser Wilhelm II, who was cousins with George V because George's mother was somehow related to the Kaiser's mother or something crazy. Anyway, look:

Anyone would think that King George V and Tsar Nicholas II were brothers. Anyway... if you can guess which one is which, I'll give you several hundred thousand cool point.

I wonder if WWI would have happened if Albert and Victoria would have been better parents?

Vicky and Bert were actually very devoted parents, which was part of the reason why English Monarchial power went downhill so suddenly as compared to the Georgian era.

If only Kaiser Willhelm hadn't defied nature and been saved from miscarriage, which was a very near thing.

Number of regiments:20
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow):Straight forward combat, show no fear, attack with fire power and brilliance, use superior weapons to take something.
Do you wish to have a specific uniform:

A Standard Stormtrooper suit, but we will let you modify it to your type of uniform, keep the basic idea, and shape it to your type of uniform.

do you have a nobility back home? yes, of course, any sane nation would.
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment?Yes, one for each group.
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)?German, Caucasian
What is the main religion of your people? Christianity
is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar)never back down from the enemy, are amazingly accurate when told to shoot at the enemy, good for guard duty and can take extreme pain, learn fast and always follow orders from superiors.

I think you'll find that they can! They are Federal Cities and therefore autonomous. I'll direct you to the official title of Tsar Nicholas II:

Nicholas II, Emperor and Autocrat of All the Russias, though his full title was “We, Nicholas the Second, by the grace of God, Emperor and Autocrat of all the Russias, of Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod, Tsar of Kazan, Tsar of Astrakhan, King of Poland, Tsar of Siberia, Tsar of Tauric Chersonesos, Tsar of Georgia, Lord of Pskov, and Grand Duke of Smolensk, Lithuania, Volhynia, Podolia, and Finland, Prince of Estonia, Livonia, Courland and Semigalia, Samogitia, Białystok, Karelia, Tver, Yugra, Perm, Vyatka, Bulgaria, and other territories; Lord and Grand Duke of Nizhny Novgorod, Chernigov; Ruler of Ryazan, Polotsk, Rostov, Yaroslavl, Beloozero, Udoria, Obdoria, Kondia, Vitebsk, Mstislav, and all northern territories; Ruler of Iveria, Kartalinia, and the Kabardinian lands and Armenian territories; hereditary Ruler and Lord of the Cherkess and Mountain Princes and others; Lord of Turkestan, Heir of Norway, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein, Stormarn, Dithmarschen, Oldenburg, and so forth, and so forth, and so forth." He is sometimes referred to as Nicholas the Martyr due to his execution and as Bloody Nicholas because of the Khodynka Tragedy during his coronation and his government's suppression of dissent. Subsequent to his canonization, he has been regarded as Saint Nicholas The Passion Bearer by the Russian Orthodox Church.

My Tsar is loosely based off of him. He is my favourite monarch, unsuccessful and mad though he was. He opened his Winter Palace to visitors to see if anyone had any suggestions for him; he was overwhelmed with suggestions that he allow the Duma more power and that he relinquish some power in favour of a constitutional monarchy. He grew angry and refused to talk to anyone or take criticism again. Meh...

The Mordentish Guard

No. of Regiments: One Battalion
Fighting Style: Foot Guards
Own Uniform: Yes, based upon the British WW1 Service Dress but in Rifle Green. Officers wear a peaked cap, NCOs the standard SD cap and regular soldiers a dark-coloured beret.
Have Nobility: Yes, and a Monarch.
Nobility Present: Yes, generally filling out most of the Officer ranks with the remainder having risened through the ranks and/or Warrant Officers.
Ethnicity: Mordentish (think Celtic)
Main Religion: Church of Ezra, Our Guardian in the Mists (old Morridane religion that dates from Pagan times).
Famous For: Skilled sharpshooters, most Morridanes receive marksmanship training before they're barely into their teens. The Mordentish Guard also focuses on swordsmanship and close-quarter fighting.

The Mordentish Guard is the only unit of its type in the Morridane Army and their main role is the protection of the Monarch, as such the heaviest weapons they deploy is the Vickers machine gun and the lighter Lewis Gun. An Independent Company of Field Guns from the Royal Morridane Artillery is on permanent attachment to the Guards, though they are usually equipped with 6-pounders.

Then what would they be doing in the federations royal guard?

Reptilian non-human regulars

While they are mostly laughed at by their officers due to their claims that they have warm blood which is indeed rather laugh worthy even if a bit cute that they think that they have warm blood as proper people.
Another thing that tends to bother the poor officers in command of the blasted critters are their constant habits of gluing feathers to their bodies no matter how many times the officers shave them off, and to make matters worse so have they also a blasted ability to find more of the blasted things no matter where the regiment are posted and when they are questioned about the whole thing so do they come with some silly lies about that they grow them, themselves.

Of course so are their officers rational people and whip them until they could be mistaken for Indians for such lies as that would simply be silly.

Credit for the uniform should go to Ramsetia, as using her as a paint slave and not give her any credit makes you a bad person!

Here's the most popular one.

Singing humanises your soldiers to the foe, music inspires the men but let's them roar incomprehensibley at their enemy, inspiring fear. (And awe at the quality of your military's bands.)

Also so is marching without a proper tune is a bore, Especially when the enemy is so insistent about gunning your down with machine-gun fire if you march in proper lines.

Awesome songs, I recognise that bombed last night one too, but I can't put my finger on exactly what film it's from... anyway. I also remember another reason why Norway hates Sweden; Sweden let the Germany army march through during world war two, and the Nazis conquered Norway. (Rofl, traitors!)

Then what would they be doing in the federations royal guard?

Simple answer: They don't get out much.

Longer answer: The Unified Commonwealth doesn't fight that many conflicts and training can only do so much, hard won combat experience is much more desirable which forces Morridane units to be sent to fight for (trusted) nations.

The Mordentish Guard are basically a much smaller version of the British Army's Guards Division and pretty much functions in the same way; an elite infantry unit with additional public duties and tasks.

I am not all that keen on having units with dual loyalties on my payroll unless they where a close ally if I should be honest

OK, its your call.

Number of regiments: 2
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow):
Offense: britzkreig
Defense:trench warafre
Desperate situation: Human Wave

Do you wish to have a specific uniform: WW2 uniforms for british army units, modernised of course
do you have a nobility back home? yes
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment? 1 in 50 chance
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)? White
What is the main religion of your people?: pretestant
is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar): When they are on the Offense, they are quite fast
When they are defensive, they build a concrete bunker in three days flat
When they are Desperate, they are really brave
they also micro-manage their SpecOps units to not overwork them, but keep them hidden
We have also mastered Cloning, but has so far only been tested with out SpecOps units

That is not a tactic.

Anglo-Franco regiments of the line

When designing their uniforms so did the Anglo-Francs asked to modernise a Tommy uniform from 1939 which was granted without question, and of course so where that stupid looking helmet the first thing to go as we can't have royal guardsmen in line infantry regiments now can we. There where however troubles that arose almost immediately as both the glorious peaked cap and the mighty Kepi would fit this regiment even if the royal high command went with the peaked cap and whipped the French who complained as command cannot be questioned.

The second question that needed to be taken into account was their attempt to have their own special forces which where not met with as much consideration but rather laughter before the officers realised that the blasted knaves where serious and whipped them out of such silly ideas which set a rather noticeable pattern for the regiment as whipping and flogging is quite common place as they seems to have the idea that human waves and bayonet charges should be the last alternative rather than the first that real men jumps at the chance to use as he then finally get to use his manly bayonet and gives him a tale to tell to his wife and friends when he gets back home.

Making a third request, just to be a bitch. >:D

Number of regiments: 3
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow): Well uh, the video I'll be showing you explains everything to be honest.
Do you wish to have a specific uniform: Yes.
If yes how would it look like (I would however prefer if you stuck to the theme of the royal guard and use uniforms from the late nineteen century or the early twentieth century),you may describe it (so will I do them to the best of my abilities in paint), post a picture or use the pictures assigned bellow as inspiration if you wish to paint it yourself: Here's a video. Should be long enough hopefully.
Do you have a nobility back home?: Yes.
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment?: Yes.
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)?: Russians/Siberians (tough mother fuckers, running in sheer numbers, such as the video shows).
What is the main religion of your people?: Siberian Orthodox.
Is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar): The video. Charging en masse to their deaths, regardless of the threat against them. They stop for no man and would rather die than surrender. Loyal to the Tsar always, hail to the monarchy! o/

Loyalty to a foreign monarch in a foreign legion-esque endeavour isn't an admiral trait. At all.

Ok then, loyalty to all royalty. How's that?
