The Kingdom of Lariana does not have its own military; the [[Armed Forces of the Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea]] provides for the defense of the Kingdom. Due to Larianan citizens automatically being given Urcean citizenship, participation of Larianan nationals in the Urcean armed forces is extremely common; as of [[2030]], 174,514 Larianans are currently serving in the Urcean armed forces. Due to the large number of Larianan nationals in the military and especially within the [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal and Imperial Army]], several dozen {{wp|Cohort (military unit)|cohorts}} and {{wp|regiment}}s of Larianan units exist. These units, exclusively made up of Larianan personnel, are authorized to carry and fly the flag of the Kingdom of Lariana in its {{wp|Military colours, standards and guidons|unit colors}} and employ the various symbols and colors of the Kingdom in its unit symbols. Larianan nationals are given the choice of opting-in to participation in these units as opposed to normal R&IA units, and as of [[2030]] approximately half of Larianan nationals in the Army are in a Larianan unit.
The Kingdom briefly had its own Army, the Urlazian Royal Army (URA) which was founded in [[Lariana#Early_Modern_and_Industrial_Era|the 1850s]] as part of efforts to build Larianan identity and improve relations between the Kingdom and Urceopolis. At its peak in 1860, it was a corps-sized formation of about 35,000 men. A small portion of the URA was deployed to [[Crona]] to fight in the [[New_Harren#Colonial_establishment|Schoharie War]] in [[1881]]. Urcean commanders had long sought to integrate the small force into the [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal Army]]. Due to the [[History_of_Urcea_(1798-1902)#Rise_of_the_Rifled_State|rise of the influence of the military over the Urcean state]], increasing pressure was put on the Kingdom to dissolve the URA. The URA was finally dissolved in [[1890]] in the first year of the [[Crown Regency]].
