Kusian Armed Forces

The Kusian Armed Forces (Kusian:sjö Vaujśćemaktäjśkjö Vúraćeśwäšteŕeśvús,lit. "the Military Force Brother-Sisterhood") is a semi-autonomous military organization tasked with defending the country and promoting its wider interests, such as supporting international peacekeeping efforts, providing humanitarian aid, and ensuring international protection. The Kusian Armed Forces consist of volunteers, whose training originates from the traditions of ancient Kusian militaristic guilds and bands.

In addition to its military duties, the Kusian Armed Forces has a paramilitary branch known as the Kuśkäja Varta. The Kuśkeja Varta is a more centralised organization responsible for law enforcement, maintaining social order, and ensuring public safety within the country.

The Head General of the Kusian Armed Forces is electively chosen and serves for a term of 10 years, but can be removed by the popular vote of the members of the military. In times of national emergency, the Head General assumes control of the country, effectively rendering Kus a stratocracy. The Kusian military and paramilitary forces in total consist of roughly 573,642 active military personnel, around 118,000 paramilitary personnel, and roughly 1,500,000 reservists.

The Kusian military conducts occasional annual military exercises individually within Kus, with Bloodia and Kadolha, as well as with neutral countries like Daugava, or Illhos, and other countries for the purpose of combined arms utilisation, communication practices, and defensive naval ship exercises and maneuvers.

Marksmanship has been a key element of Kusian military training since the early 19th century. Kusian military personnel are highly idealistic about defending their land, but despite that, the military remains grounded in the traditionally democratic principles of the country, while also maintaining high levels of discipline and cooperation.

History
The Kusian Armed Forces in the modern shape and form have their origins in the late 16th century, during a period of conflict with the Vetan Empire and complete fragmentation of Kus. At that time, the Vatenian prince Vaĺaudźeomer Zoreogaster took command of the garrison in the city of Čyrńús and the local branch of the Kusian traditional Armed Brotherhood, and used them to repel the Vetan invasion.

Zoreogašter's military leadership and tactics proved to be effective in combat against the invaders. After repelling the Lipnitian forces, he used his success to convince the remaining city-states of Northern Kus to unite under his command and fight against the Lipnitians. This marked the beginning of the formation of the Kusian Armed Forces.

The Kusian Army is the largest and most prominent branch of the Kusian Armed Forces, responsible for conducting ground-based operations to defend the nation against external threats, as well as providing support for domestic law enforcement and disaster relief efforts. The Kusian Navy, on the other hand, is responsible for maritime operations, including the protection of the nation's coastal borders and the safeguarding of its maritime interests.

The Kusian Air Force is responsible for the nation's air defense and air operations, including providing close air support for ground-based operations and conducting air patrols to defend the nation's airspace. The Kusian Special Operation units operate under the authority of the Kusian Air Forces, and are responsible for carrying out specialized and covert operations to protect Kus and its interests. They are a highly-trained, elite unit responsible for missions including reconnaissance, sabotage, and direct action missions.

In addition to these branches, the Kusian Armed Forces also includes the Kusian Guard, a paramilitary branch responsible for maintaining law and order and ensuring public safety within the country. Each branch of the Kusian Armed Forces is equipped with a variety of weapons, vehicles, and other specialized equipment tailored to its specific mission and responsibilities.
