 ==Military presence==
+The colonial militia and military of the colony initially comprised a small, decentralized force, often consisting of local settlers and mercenaries to protect the interests of the Bergendii Martilliens. As the colony's economic significance grew, so did the need for a more organized defense system. Over time, the colonial militia transformed into a more structured and disciplined entity, trained in both conventional warfare and guerilla tactics to safeguard the colony's interests and suppress potential uprisings among the native and enslaved populations.
+The military's evolution saw the introduction of more sophisticated weaponry and defensive fortifications to protect the colony from rival [[Occidental]] (namely [[Kiravia]]) powers and hostile indigenous groups. This shift was accompanied by the imposition of stricter regulations and punitive measures to ensure the compliance of the local population and the enslaved labor force. The military's expansion and consolidation of power mirrored the colony's growing importance as a key trading hub and contributed to the perpetuation of the oppressive colonial regime.
