Summary
Fundamentally the MITF is the All-volunteer professional army which used to be the conscripted military. Historically, most native Minrozians were once nomadic warriors till early modern times to cope with industrialisation. Despite modernization effort, the importance of old warrior traditions is prevalent widespread in the Imperial society. Minrozian soldiers were reputed to be superb sharpshooters and self-restraint reflected in their ancestral warrior culture. Conditioned to be tough people, for the reason that the continental mainland and its inhospitable territories always teeming with deadly predators of various sizes to defend from.
Although military service is compulsory for the nobility and urban-born Marmarrians, in theory, for all men who attain the age of 15; women may register for duty in the medical, veterinary, and other technical services at ages as young as 14. However, a draft in Minroz has never been enforced due to huge numbers of volunteers from Minroz's tremendous population. Demobilized servicemen are carried in a ready reserve, which is reinforced by a standby reserve of veterans and by the militia.

The recruits undergo rigorous training in any environment which is dangerous than most battlefields, remarkably all recruits survive due to careful consideration of trainers and limits of the training. Its emphasis is on practiced sharpshooting, horsemanship, individual martial arts, unit tactics, formations and rotations; maintained by hard, but not overly harsh or unreasonable, discipline. However all members had to be unconditionally loyal to each other and to their superiors, and especially to their Holy Emperor and his dominions. If one soldier ran from danger in the battle, then he and his comrades from the same squad would face harsh penalty together.

Discipline was inculcated during a traditional hunt. These hunts were the equivalent to small unit actions. Minrozian recruits would spread out everywhere, surround an entire region then drive all of the animals of all manners within that area together. The goal was to let none of the animals escape and to slaughter them all on the commanders’ order as well as practicing their combat skills and tactics. If any soldier kills any creature before the appointed time, if one allowed an animal to escape from the ring, they will be punished altogether. Thus the Minrozians were able to train, enjoy the recreation of hunting, and gather food for massive feasts all at once.

The core principles are based on speed, flexibility and opportunism. All military campaigns were preceded by careful planning, reconnaissance and gathering of sensitive information relating to enemy territories and forces. When invading an area, the Minrozians would do all that was necessary to completely conquer/occupy the settlements.
Being spiritual descendants of their warrior ancestors, they’re expected to invoke the old glory days as the formidable Nomadic warrior empire. Citizens with military records are held in high regard in Minrozian culture, and families and clans with a long history of military service elevate themselves within Minroz society. The Minrozian Imperial Army overall is extremely highly discipline. Failure to maintain equipment and desertion without good reason in battle were punishable by lashing or court-marshalled depends on how serious the penalties are, in the past it’s punishable by death. The MITF service men and women are highly dutiful and responsible, as well as pragmatic soldiers.
All military personnel are sworn in with this common oath.
Strategy and Tactics
Minrozian typical doctrine is Combined arms tactics making use of network-centric warfare and extensive support preparation in defensive and offensive warfare, the use of a proficient combat engineering branch to both set up obstacles and field fortifications in the defensive and breach such on the offensive, combines manoeuvre warfare and rapid-construction field fortification.

The army are organized into strong decimal system, with a commander elected by troops. Forces under the command of the Minrozian Empire were generally highly trained, organized, and equipped for mobility and speed. Military tactics were rehearsed well in preparation and each warrior/soldier was expected to know precisely what to do from the signals or orders of the commanders, which took form in telepathy, coloured flares, hand signals, Morse code, drums, and banners. Whenever possible, Imperial commanders found the highest ground available or uses of advanced holo-technology in mobile bunkers, from which they could make tactical decisions based on the best view of the battlefield as events unfolded. In addition, keeping the high command on high ground or secret location made them easier to defend.

In matters of conquests, the Minrozians prefer using psychological warfare in many of their battles to inspire fear and terror to their foes, providing opportunity for the enemy to surrender and pay tribute, instead of having countries destroyed. Minrozians often practiced the feigned retreat in any forms, in order to lure the enemy to favourable positions and isolated areas; only to pivot when the enemy was drawn out, destroying them at their own leisure. Once this feigned retreat became known to the enemy, the Minrozians would extend the feigned retreat for days or weeks, to falsely convince the chasers that they were defeated and only to charge back once the enemy has their guards down or retreated back to join their main formation.
Every commanders and officers are highly trained and perform better than their regular counterparts, their strategy are usually based on teamwork and are quite well read with a thorough understanding of history and maps, with a calm demeanour, even to last minute detail. The Minrozian battlefield tactics were a combination of masterful training with excellent communication and discipline in the chaos of combat. They trained for virtually every possibility, so when it occurred, they could react accordingly, their training and discipline allowed them to fight without the need for constant supervision or rallying, which often placed commanders in dangerous positions. The Minrozians carefully scouted out and spied on their enemies or potential foe in advance.
The commanders made well-educated guesses as to the willingness of each nation/groups to aid the others, and their ability to resist alone or together. When Minrozians started conquering other people, they included former enemies to their armies if they only surrendered willingly or under a threat to be destroyed otherwise. Therefore as they expanded into other areas, their troop numbers can increase as other people are included in their conquests, which included many diverse people and species fighting under Minrozian leader.
