A draft also occurred in [[Sydona]], which operated as a ''de facto'' independent Kirosocialist rump state [[Sydona#Reintegration|for much of that year]]. The draft resumed nationwide in 1986, but only a fraction of the draft class (35% in the former Remnant, 20% in the former Union) were enlisted into active service, with the majority being assigned directly to reserve duty or to civilian service (45% in the Remnant, 20% in the former Union) or excused. | ||

According to ''Rough Draft'', [[List_of_Kiravian_academics#Mévar_I.L.R._Ríladorian|Mévar Ríladorian]]'s seminal work on the topic, high-level discussions about the future of conscription began almost immediately after reunification was formalised, but did not crystallise into serious policy proposals until 1986, by which time Federalist control over the Mainland and | According to ''Rough Draft'', [[List_of_Kiravian_academics#Mévar_I.L.R._Ríladorian|Mévar Ríladorian]]'s seminal work on the topic, high-level discussions about the future of conscription began almost immediately after reunification was formalised, but did not crystallise into serious policy proposals until 1986, by which time Federalist control over the Mainland and Sydona was secure and High Command had a more complete organisational understanding of the former KPA that it was tasked with absorbing. | ||
With the 1986 draft date approaching and the high costs of administering Great Kirav's bloated population and revitalising its imploded economy weighing heavily on the restored government, the [[Executive College]] and the Stanora's Defence Committee sought recommendations from the general staff, government analysts, and independent think-tanks on how to proceed. The vast majority of recommendations solicited concluded that conscription should be scaled back and eventually abandoned. The most prominent dissenting voice came from the journal of the [[United Allegiance Society]], which argued that extending National Service with a larger civilian component to the liberated provinces and women was necessary to foster renewed national solidarity, implement cultural/ideological de-Kirsokisation, manage the youth unemployment that would result from coming market reforms, and assist humanitarian and reconstruction efforts in underdeveloped provinces. | With the 1986 draft date approaching and the high costs of administering Great Kirav's bloated population and revitalising its imploded economy weighing heavily on the restored government, the [[Executive College]] and the Stanora's Defence Committee sought recommendations from the general staff, government analysts, and independent think-tanks on how to proceed.
