====Pre-national Forces====

The typical Fhainnin soldier for the first few thousand years of recorded history (known as a ''Ceiternin'') was armed with a sword (''deamhbah''), javelins (''gah''), and various daggers. They generally favored no armor or padded cloth, as tribal tactics focused on skirmishes and ambush over pitched fighting. These troops were organized into rough units collectively referred to as ''Ceiternn'', or warbands, which numbered anywhere from thirty to four hundred men depending on the size of the populations from which they were raised. The leader of each warband was either elected or lead by charisma and was referred to as a ''Ceiternna,'' and responded directly to the commanding noble or official, assuming they themselves were not operating autonomously. Many local bands fought against invading forces both foreign and native without a call to arms, often boiling the distinction between soldiery and highwaymen down to a matter of loyalties.

==== Rank Structure====

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible"

All COs are technically considered officers in the Fhainnin rank structure, and non-officers are referred to as Men-at-Arms. Any soldier can theoretically attain the rank of Captaen, though this typically is reserved for officer training school candidates and higher ranks require such training as a prerequisite. Appointments to the ranks of Lft. General and higher almost always require appropriate political leanings and specialized schooling in addition to the demonstrated competence and leadership qualities expected of the upper echelons.

====Pay====

base pay for a soldier is approximately 30,000 Barra a year for enlisted, 45,000 for lower officers, 60,000 for staff officers, and 140,000 Barra/year for generals before bonuses. Combat awards typically include bonuses of one to ten thousand Barra; campaign medals and ordinary medals do not. Soldiers killed in battle are awarded a year and a half of tax exempt pay to be paid to the willed persons or nearest kin if nobody is selected. Soldiers killed in peacetime for reasons unrelated to existing health issues, disorderly conduct, and suicide are awarded one hundred to one hundred fifty thousand barra over three years. Maimed veterans receive a varying pay of 10-15 thousand Barra per year for fifteen years after discharge, and all combat veterans are entitled to tax-funded mental health services. Veterans and active personnel additionally are additionally exempt from Faneria's railway use tax.

about 36 billion in salaries (average 37000 barra/26.5k thalers pay, but many bonuses available plus minor pensions)
