The Cascadian Armed Services have proudly defended the Republics of the Evergreen for over two hundred years. They have served with pride in conflicts from the Yukon War to the Ashant War and have in recent decades conducted peacekeeping operations across the planet, including the Chesapeake of Shepistan. The Cascadian Army is considered the premier service in the mountains and valleys of rural Cascadia as well as the service of choice for over half of all young Cascadians brought into National Service. The Army and its fine spearpoint, the Republic Guard, have a long and distinguished battle history, stretching from the Battles of Fort O'Neill and Fort Carter in the Yukon War to the liberation of Hasiyah from Astarian forces in the Velerian War and several battles against Shepistani forces in the Second War of the World. Working closely with the Provincial Militias the primary purpose of the Army is, as it has been from the beginning, the defense of Cascadian soil. The Cascadian Navy was founded at the outset of the Yukon War to protect Cascadia's long coastline from raids and invasions by Tian Xia Imperial forces. Although that war ended before any actual naval combat could take place, the Navy was maintained in service in the years afterward, expanding in the 1850s to help defend Cascadia's increasing holdings in the Adabani Peninsula of northeastern Veleria. The first Cascadian armored cruisers Defiant and Intrepid led the charge against the Astarian slaving fleets during the Velerian War in the 1880s, including the daring shelling of the Astarian port of Savannah Harbor on 9 July 1883 and multiple intercepts at sea that brought slave hulks into friendly ports to have their cargoes freed. After years of peace the Cascadian Navy was again called to service during the Wars of the World, in which they participated in the Neutrality Patrols of the first war and the Allied North Velerian campaign against Japanistan in the second, where Cascadian bomber pilots struck the killing blow on two Japanistani battleships in the Battle of Carpentia. Since then it has operated as a stabilizing force in the waters of North Veleria, helping to keep the peace and prevent piracy along that long coastline. Long bereft of fixed wing aircraft carriers in the years after the 2nd WW, the Cascadian Navy has since enjoyed fielding three sizable aircraft carriers, known as the Defiant-class, and will soon field their first ever nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the 67,000 ton Reprisal. Founded in the 1910s as the Republic Flying Corps, the Cascadian Air Force served in the Second War of the World with pride, helping to save the Tanvarika Peninsula from the Japanistani advance in 1943 and engaging in several operations alongside the Allies in Shepistan. Although not always the largest of services, the Air Force is quite content with having superior quality in its machines and personnel, as evidenced by the recent fielding of two state-of-the-art "5th Generation" aircraft designs, the ASF-18 Sparrowhawk and ASF-20 Kestrel. The Cascadian Marine Corps is a subset of the Navy. They have historically been used as a seaborne rapid-reaction force for Velerian operations, fighting several standalone campaigns against tribal levies in pre-colonial Adabani and then supporting the Navy in its campaign against the Astarian slave trade in the Velerian War. Their brightest hour came in the 2nd WW when they worked alongside Marine forces from other nations in the region-hopping offensive campaign against Japanistan in northwestern Veleria. Today they operate closely with the Navy in keeping the peace in North Veleria. The Military of Cascadia are the unified military forces of the Republic of Cascadia. The military presently consists of six branches, the Ground Corps, Robotic Corps, Navy, Air Force, Cyber Corps, and the Guard. The military is controlled by the Ministry of Defense, a civilian ministry in charge of the military.
