The Army of Burgundie ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''le Strates della Burgundie''), commonly called ''le Strates'', serves as the land-based branch of the [[Burgoignesc_Security_Forces#Civil_Defense_and_Security_Ministry|Civil Defense and Security Ministry in the Burgoignesc Security Forces]] in defense of the nation of [[Burgundie]] in particular, and [[The Burgundies]] in general. It is formed of two sections, the [[Army of Burgundie#Metropole Forces|Metropole Forces]] and the [[Army of Burgundie#Foreign Legion|Foreign Legion]]. The [[Army of Burgundie#Metropole Forces|Metropole Forces]] are not a standing army and as such, is best suited to {{wpl|fourth generation warfare}}, which is the basic doctrine of force. It relies entirely on small unit tactics and small, fast armored vehicles. This doctrine is born from the bloody origins of the nation, that presupposes that all citizens are soldiers and that massive standing home armies are too expensive for the threat levels that [[Burgundie]] has historically encountered. In the modern era this point is render largely moot by the heavy commitments the Army of Burgundie makes to the [[Levantine Union Defense Council]] (LUDC) meaning that full time soldiers and officers of the Army are stationed in [[Burgundie]] and across the [[Levantine Union]] through {{wpl|secondment}} to cooperative units of the [[Levantine Union Defense Council]]. Furthermore, while not a standing army, a 81,538-person reserve force is maintained in the [[Burgoignesc metropole]], as well as the over 100,000 members of the [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]] stationed in the same jurisdiction.

Due to almost a century of ''modern'' asymmetrical warfare experience, [[Burgundie]] has diverged from some of its contemporaries, namely [[Urcea]], whose focus is on peer and near-peer combined arms combat with a focus on massed armor. [[Burgundie]]'s doctrine focuses on the infantry and engineers and all [[Army_of_Burgundie#Organization|other corps]] are designed to support those smaller, agile, rapidly changing mission sets. This means that armored platoons are small (two armored vehicles per platoon) and are empowered to act autonomously in support of infantry in the area.

In the late 1430s, unemployed Derian mercenaries pillaged across southern Dericania. Eventually some were recruited by southern mercenary captains who hired them out to the royal companies raised by order of the local princes, who it seems regarded them as a major impediment to peaceful rule. They extorted protection money from local peasants as well as exacting tolls from passing merchants and holding local important people for ransom.

= Organization =
In the early days of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] the [[Bergendii]] were few in number and their military hardware was left over from the [[Great Confessional War]]. It wasn't long before their incursions in [[Alshar]] and [[Audonia]] were met with stiffening resistance from established power players with the military vestiges of the late [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]]. Warlords, local strong men, and regional lords who could afford larger armies and fortified defenses were the scourge of the efforts at expansionism under the trappings of set piece [[Occidental]] battles. Soon the [[Bergendii]] shifted tactics, out of necessity, to make the most of their smaller numbers and increasingly archaic weaponry.
Main article: [[Burgoignesc Security Forces]]<br>
Currently, the Army of Burgundie is divided into the Regular Army ([[Army of Burgundie#Metropole Forces|Metropole Forces]] and the [[Army of Burgundie#Foreign Legion|Foreign Legion]]) and the [[Army of Burgundie#Legion of Volunteers and Levies|Legion of Volunteers and Levies]]. Some constituent countries further maintain a state defense forces ([[Faramount]] and [[Nostrestran]]), as a type of reserve that can be federalized through the Title 10 process. The Faramount Royal Defense Force is "organized", meaning that it is an armed force, the Nostrestran Militia System is "unorganized", meaning that all able-bodied citizens (of all genders) may be eligible to be called into military service.
The Army of Burgundie is also divided into several functional Corps. These Corps are headed by a school to maintain consistency of training and standards across the Regular Army, the Legion of Volunteers and Levies, and the state defense forces. While the total list of branches is exhaustive the most famous Corps are:
*Army Corps of Aviation ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Aviacion)
*Army Corps of Engineering ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Hyposthenie)
*Army Corps of Medicine ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates de Medicament)
*Army Corps of Military Police ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates des le Marechaussie)
*Army Corps of Special Operations ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Operacions Especial)
*Army Corps of Cavalry ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates de Cavalerie)
*Army Corps of Artillery ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Artillerie)
*Army Corps of Infantry ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Infaterie)
*Army Corps of Logistics ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates de Tren)
*Army Corps of Military Intelligence ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Intelligence Militaire)


==Structure==
Creating numerous small units of men were specially selected and trained (often by local natives) to participate in {{wpl|sorties}} and {{wpl|razzia}} against much more numerous and fortified enemies became a fairly standard practice by [[Audonia]]n and [[Alshar]]i based [[Bergendii]] colonial governors. These were contemporaneously called the governor's land rovers ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: TerreRaubeuers), and were a purely offensive force. These units were never standardized but often shared common themes, they were meritocratic, not restricted by class, race, or creed. These units adopted the weapons of the area in which they operated so that resupply through raiding allowed for long-range raids deep into the enemies interior. Uniforms were eschewed in favor of traditional dress of the area of operations. Due to limitations of communications in the 17th-19th century, governors would give these units general objectives and targets and most importantly a timeframe, but leave it up to the leaders of the units to adjust to the realities on the ground. The timeframe became increasingly important as negotiations would be planned around these timeframes. Treaties or agreements would be stalled until the TerreRaubeuers would return and damage to a new alliance or arrangement after the fact wouldn't occur.
 
During the collapse of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] in the 1790s-1830s this practice was reduced and eventually banned when the last of the colonies fell and the various colonial soldieries were consolidated into the Army of Burgundie.

Following the expulsion of the Protestants from [[Levantia]] during the [[Great Confessional War]], [[Burgundie]] was flooded with Protestants and a Duke that was hostile to their presence in [[Burgundie]]. As an attempt to deal with their persistent presence and under pressure from the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] and the Papacy, the Duke of Burgundie, created the Burgundian Foreign Legion as a way to displace them, but bolster his military power. At its conception in [[1577]], the unit consisted of 1,000 Protestant men with 5 [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] officers. They were trained as marines and were assigned to merchant ships conducting business outside of [[Levantia]]. This role persisted until the late 1800s when the needs of the thalosocrassy shifted and molded the legion to fit.

===IV Ularien Division===
====I Foreign Infantry Regiment====
====XIV Foreign Infantry Regiment====
====Umardi Askari Demi-Brigade====
The Umardi Askaris are a unit of the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion formed of ethnic  nomadic Umardi tribesmen from [[Umardwal]] and [[Pukhgundi]] who serve under Burgoigniac officers. It is the last and only segregated unit in the Army of Burgundie, with the codification of the roles of soldiers ({{wpl|lascarins}}) and officers being delineated by nationality and therefore race. Currently, the Demi-Brigade has 2,246 {{wpl|lascarins}} and officers and is based at Fort Safasi, [[Umardwal]], the only unit in the [[Burgoignesc Security Forces]] permanently stationed outside of the territorial [[Burgoignesc thalattocracy]].




Formed in [[1723]] the Askaris were a regiment in the colonial forces of the [[Burgoignesc Kandahar-Kandara Trading Company|Ularien Trading Empire]], who traced their roots to the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]]’s invasion of southern [[Alshar]] in the YEARS. They served as the core of the colonial troops in the empire’s [[Audonia]]n holdings, particularly since they were Shia and the remainder of the continent was primarily Sunni. This was part of the empire’s deliberate divide and rule policies that utilized religious, cultural, and tribal differences to advance the empire’s aims. After the collapse of the empire the unit was disbanded in [[1842]]. The remaining Umardi Askaris were sent to various Burgoignesc Foreign Legion units and their history was all but forgotten.
===I Division, Foreign Legion===
It was reformed in [[1964]] with the formation of the [[Umardwal|Islamic Republic of Umardwal]] when secular and non-Muslim nomads faced persecution at the hands of the Islamic Republics secret police. The nomads had strong connections with similar nomadic communities in [[Bulkh]] and [[Pukhgundi]], the latter of which also joined the unit as they were facing similar persecution in their country.


The officers of the Askari’s are all recruited from the Provost Gendarmerie of Burgundie and serve as both officers and internal military police. This means the training is brutal and punishments for even minor infractions are severe. However, since the unit is one of the most active in the Army of Burgundie and because of its strict and martial command and lifestyle, the unit often performs well in overwhelming odds.
I Division, Foreign Legion is an amphibious assault infantry {{wp|Division (military)|division}} headquartered in, [[Sudmoll]] and serves the Absurian Australis Command.


Fort Safasi is unique in that it has very few barracks buildings for the soldiers as they like to maintain their nomadic traditions which is encouraged as it supports a campaign lifestyle. It is also more of a community than a base as the families of the soldiers are as much a part of the unit as the soldiers themselves.
===II Division, Foreign Legion===
II Division, Foreign Legion is an airborne mechanized infantry {{wp|Division (military)|division}} headquartered in, [[Flordeterra]], [[Equitorial Ostiecia]] and serves the Osteician Central Command.


====Kandaran Mounted Scout Regiment====
===III Division, Foreign Legion===
The Kandaran Mounted Scouts are a calvary regiment specializing in armored warfare and armored reconnaissance. To accomplish their role, they are equipped with [[Cross Trucking Company]] {{wpl|AMX-10_RC#AMX-10_RCR_modernisation|AMX-10 RCR}}s and {{wpl|EBRC Jaguar}}s.
III Division, Foreign Legion, sometimes called the Burgoginesc Barsom Army of Ularia, or the Ularien Barsom Army in reference to its predecessor the [[10,000 Moukahlas]], is an airborne mechanized infantry {{wp|Division (military)|division}} headquartered in, [[Alcairet]] and serves the Grand Eastern Command.


Their role developed from its original form as voltigeurs at their formation in [[1796]], to the cavalry unit they are today. They are stationed in Joint Base Meriammajori, Levantine Ocean Command on [[Torlen]]. As of [[1904]], the unit was reduced to battalion strength, with 757 soldiers and officers. During the later years of the regime of the [[Burgoignesc Kandahar-Kandara Trading Company]] in [[Alshar]], the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the Kandaran Scouts were a reinforced regiment, often numbering over 6,000 men.

The Ularien Cuirassier Squadron are fraternal with the [[Arcerion_Armoured_Corps#Regiments|Royal Arcerion Dragoons]] of the [[Arcer Army]]. They share the distinction of being the successor of {{wpl|heavy cavalry}} for their respective armies and as such they share a sense of that heritage and many common traditions. They hold an annual {{wpl|Jousting#Competitive_jousting|competitive joust}} an {{wpl|Barrel racing}} competition where in the units exercise {{wpl|equestrianism|equestrian}} sports appropriate to the role of {{wpl|heavy cavalry}}. In essence this translates to being equestrian sport that focuses on handling and short distance running, no activities relating to endurance running are conducted.

Imperial Camel Constabulary is a hussar demi-Brigade numbering 1,386 calvary men and officers. The unit is stationed across [[Equitorial Ostiecia]]. They are a combat unit, but when not actively deployed they supplement the local [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]].
====Cronan Alpine Infantry Regiment====
====Fianna Tauth Regiment====
The Fianna Tauth (Eng. Tribes of Warriors), is an ancient military unit that predates [[Burgundie]] by centuries. The original [[Bergendii]] who settled [[Burgundie]] both fought and recruited the Fianna (Eng. warrior bands) throughout the nation's history. During the [[Great Confessional War]], Burgoignesc aristocrats formed an army of the [[Fianna]] and were known throughout [[Kingdom of Dericania]] for their ferocity. In [[1938]], during the [[Second Great War]] a volunteer regiment was raised and sent to fight in [[Equitorial Ostiecia]] and became known as '''an Tauth''' (Eng. the Tribe). At the end of the war, they were given a permanent base in [[Flordeterra]] and build Fort Fearann na Treubh. Today, the regiment is 2,548 strong, whose mission primarily consists of Assault pioneers, but also has a strong logistics train that has been utilized by other [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] units operating in tandem with them.
=====Fianna Tauth International Fraternal Units=====
The Fianna Tauth are fraternal with the [[List_of_Named_Units_of_Fhainnin_Armies#National_Army_2004-Present|211u Mechanized Brigade of the 21.

They hold an annual {{wpl|Feis#Modern_Feiseanna_(Irish)|Feis}} where in the Regiments exercise Gaelic arts – song, dance, drama, [[Fhasen]] language, {{wpl|Celtic_music|traditional music}}, and {{wpl|Gaelic games|Cluichí Gaelacha}} (particularly {{wpl|Gaelic football}} and {{wpl|Hurling}}).

====Zamburak Camel Artillery====
Seconded to the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion from the Puhkgundian Emirate in [[1867]] during the [[Emirati War]]. The Zamburaks were formalized into the Legion in [[1915]] as a mountain artillery battalion. During [[Operation Kipling]] the unit was bolstered into the 1st and 2nd Zamburak Camel Artillery Regiments. In [[1986]] the 2nd Regiment was disbanded and its artillerymen and equipment were seconded to the 1st Regiment which became just the Zamburak Camel Artillery Regiment. Due to the nature of the camel-borne transportation, the artillery used by the Zamburaks historically fulfilled the direct fire role and been of lighter caliber. During [[Operation Kipling]] the standard mounted weapon was a M40 recoilless rifle. In the modern era the unit has adopted the MMP, the Mistral, as well as the {{wpl|Mortier 120mm Rayé Tracté Modèle F1|RTF1}} (which gives it an indirect fire capability to the unit). While the camel is still the primary high alpine transportation method as well as the ceremonial transporter for the unit, the primary "lowland" vehicle of the unit is the {{wpl|Polaris_Inc.#DAGOR|DAGOR}}.

=====International Fraternal Units=====
The KilPatrick Ranger are fraternal with the [[Kinnaird Grenadiers]] of the [[Arcer Army]]. They share a historic {{wpl|Celtic}} heritage and many common traditions. They hold an annual {{wpl|Feis#Modern_Fèisean_(Scottish)|Fèis}} where in the Regiments exercise Gaelic arts – song, dance, drama, {{wpl|Scottish Gaelic|language}}, {{wpl|Celtic_music|traditional music}}, and {{wpl|highland games}}.


====Raulie Bushrangers Regiment====
The unit was formed in [[2026]], as part of the [[Army of Burgundie Combat Capability Realignment of 2026]], after the number of [[Algosh_Republic#Algosh_abroad|Algosh]] applicants exceeded the ability of the [[Army of Burgundie#Training_Command|Training Command]] to adequately train and matriculate the [[Algosh_Republic#Algosh_abroad|Algosh]]. Due to the well-known martial tradition of the [[Algosh Republic|Algosh]], especially during the [[Final War of the Deluge]], the Foreign Legion high command wanted to quickly recruit and retain the diaspora of [[Algosh_Republic#Algosh_abroad|Algosh]], before they could be taken into other countries militaries. Legion high command created a brigade combat team, in [[2026]], which later expanded to a battlegroup, in [[2030]], as a "temporary training, matriculation, and evaluation unit."
The Raulie Bushrangers are a series of decentralized {{wpl|Chasseurs Forestier}}s battalions that operate across the eastern hemisphere, primarily in [[Torlen]], [[Alcairet]], [[Chaukhira]], [[Salarive]], and [[Antilles]]. They are a form of military police and firefighting service, whose primary responsibility is maintaining the forests, highways and public lands in these provinces. They are an airborne assault regiment and in wartime provide advance guards and scouting parties. In total, the regiment consists of 7 battalions, totaling 4,584 men.
====100 Chevaliers of Joanus====
Main article: [[Knight of the Realm]]


The 100 Chevaliers of Joanus ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Les Cent Chevaliers de Joan'', commonly ''Les Cent Chevs'') is an independent Assault pioneer company. They were originally raised in [[1852]] as a regiment of [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] mercenary cuirassiers in the [[First Fratricide]]. Their name is an homage to the [[Knight of the Realm|Knights of the Realm]] ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Chevaliers della reialme''), but they are only spiritual successors of [[Siegmar von Willing]]'s [[Black Company]]. The gens d'armes of the [[Black Company|Black Company's]] success was noted by many not only for their military success, but also because they were not invested in the local politics and land squabbles. Being mercenaries they were classified as ''milites gregarii'' (non-noble cavalrymen). This helped maintain the fragile balances in the small courts of [[Kingdom of Dericania]]. As opposed to the ''milites nobiles'' (landed noble knights) or ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Eques'') who were constantly squabbling over land. For those princlings who could afford the services of the [[Black Company]] ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Centes neirs''), their services were crucial. The [[History of Burgundie#Vilauristre%20Conference|Vilauristre Conference]] and the [[Bishopric of Bonavix]] in particular used their services.
The plan is to use the Tirailleurs Tessouat are focused on two core missions for the near term. The first mission is that they are teaching the cadre of Drill Instructors and Training Officers their methodology and combat techniques to see what can be integrated into the [[Burgoignesc way of war]] and training, conducted by the newly created ''Cronan Combat Doctrine Integration School''. The second mission is to act as {{wp|Opposing force|OPFOR}} for unit training for the rest of the Army of Burgundie.
 
As the war expanded with the invasion of [[Vorenia]] by Bourgondi-Estie and Marialanus a larger army was needed quickly. Colonial units and mercenaries supplemented the counties militia. The reputation of the [[Black Company|''Centes neirs'']] persisted through the ages and 300 years later another call was sent to the young men of [[Yonderre]]. 1,290 [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] Cuirassiers were recruited and trained under [[Bergendii]] officers.
