Fhainic Revivalism (old description, not canon)
== History ==
''Cananachan Republicanism is a derivative of populist republican political science, coined by Callac Cananach in 1882. The concept is very similar to the radical republican movements of the 1850s, even including some proto-socialist rhetoric in regards to eliminating the traditional class and race boundaries of the Monarchy and feudal system, but roundly condemns the elimination of private property in favor of creating a formal system of public services and utilities, which under traditional Fhainnin law were dominated by noble families. The primary tenents of the system are a rabid aversion to non-meritocratic representation, the use of mass politics in the form of a one-chamber legislature based on population rather than administrative subdivisions, and the employment of particularly extensive oversight measures designed to put the state entirely within the control of the public. The original concept was even described by Cananach as 'a State enslaved to its constituents, entirely focused on the militant defense of freedoms and morality'. The system is usually connected directly to the Fhainic Revival movement; although it has been claimed that only a people as stubbornly moralistic as the Fhainn could make Cananach's system function properly, the connection between Cananachan theory and the growth of Revivalism is largely considered by historians to be a case of converging, rather than concurrent, social movements.''


Cananachan Republicanism (old, non-canon)
== Command structure ==
''Fhainic Revivalism is a major cultural movement spread across northern Levantia, especially within its nation of origin, Kistan. Including architectural design, art, cuisine, language, political and military philosophy and organization, and a wide variety of other topics, the (movement) is by no means a cohesive school of thought, although it is unofficially endorsed by the government of Kistan as the driving force in modern Kistani society. Outside of Fhainnin, Revivalism has had a mixed history of separatism alongside its common focus on rebuilding native Levantine society, especially within the less stable areas of the Latin States. The major trend of Revivalism is its emphasis on combining traditional Fhainic culture with Catholic worship, although radical republicanism is often considered a part of the movement as well.''

''Alcohol has a long tradition in Kistan, and is considered a core part of its identity from ancient times to the modern day - the common endonym for the nation itself is a bastardization of the Farsi term 'Land of the Goblet', in honor of Fhainic merchants subverting Audonian regulations during the centuries immediately prior to and during Islamic expansion. Fhainic beer has long been known for its high alcohol content, and the people themselves for their iron guts. This has translated into forays into wines, particularly dry varieties in northern Levantia, and the creation of some of the first modern vintage standards. Many small breweries can still be found across the countryside, and unlike most nations, alcohol licensing is generally lax. Non-alcoholic beers are also readily available for the underaged, with a few very low-content varieties licensed for consumption by minors. These varieties have become especially popular in daily life, although traditional brews still see use in parties and other celebrations.''

''Classical and modern Kistani literary works can be separated primarily based on the presence of heroic tales. In older days, the militaristic lifestyle was considered the highest form of achievement for any person, and so literature of the time was primarily heroic or historic in nature, an often emphasized nationalistic values and traditionalist points of view. Modern literature is a broader industry, but still maintains its roots in the values expressed. However, Kistan's literature is less prominent than most other Levantian nations', and as a result the Bible plays a major role as reading material even today. A large portion of modern works are oriented towards educational material, skill-learning, and other utilitarian functions, while fiction tends to be a mix of a minor creative medium and a large number of derivative epics.''

''Kistani engineering, electronics, and design in general has a significant focus on longevity and robustness, born from cultural stances created by consistent flooding, warfare, and traditionalism. The electronics industry, although small compared to the major powers, is known for its high quality, and systems both electrical and mechanical designed by intranational firms are generally stereotyped as 'tough' - parts tend to be designed to last, and construction and manufacturing firms are known to regularly build beyond safety standards to enhance their reputations and work opportunities. In electronics, this manifests as a tendency to improve existing products rather than design from scratch, with performance and reliability improving through small changes rather than radical redesigning.''

History

Command structure

The Urcean Armed Forces are nominally led by the Apostolic King of Urcea, though the Constitution of Urcea provides that the regular command of the military is under the Procurator in their role as Magister Militum. The Urcean Armed Forces are under the administration of the Ministry for the Armed Services, whose Minister also serves as Lord Marshal. The Lord Marshal is nominated from among the officer corps of the Armed Forces, traditionally of Flag Officer rank, by the Procurator and approved by the Concilium Daoni.

The military chain of command flows from the Apostolic King of Urcea to the Procurator, ensuring civilian control of the military. Within the Ministry for the Armed Services is the Office for the Army, Office for the Navy, and Office for the Air Force, civilian led entities that oversee the coequal military service branches organized within and provide for their upkeep. The military departments and services are responsible for organizing, training, and equipping forces, with the actual chain of command flowing through the unified combatant commands.

The Council of the Lord Marshal is the senior-most military body in the Armed Forces and provides guidance to the Lord Marshal and officially receive orders from the Lord Marshal on the conduct and direction of the military, but in effect most of these directives come from civilian officials within the Ministry for the Armed Services or the Procurator in the Lord Marshal's name. It is led by the Lord Marshal, who is both the military head of the Armed Forces and always holds the rank of Lecáti Princeps, Návarce Princeps, or Air Návarce Princeps and is the civilian Minister of the Ministry for the Armed Services. The Council consists of the Lord Marshal, three Deputy Lord Marshals (one for each part of the Armed Forces), and the Senior Enlisted Advisor. The Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Lord Marshal is the most senior enlisted member in the Armed Forces.
