The | The Aciriani Armed Forces (Aciriano: ''Forze Armate Aciriano''), formally known as the '''Imperial Armed Forces of Aciria''', are the armed forces of [[Aciria]]. | ||
The Imperial Armed Forces of Aciria trace its roots back to the establishment of the [[Free Republic of Aciria]] when it was called the Free Republican Army, founded with the purpose of fending off potential attempts at reintegrating Aciria to its former overlord, but was mainly used to pacify revolts in the region.

Formally founded in 1785 following the establishment of the Grand Empire of Aciria after [[Jean Dupois|Giovanni I]] seized power and crowned himself Emperor. The Imperial Armed Forces are responsible for stability of the nation alongside fending off any threats against the sovereignty of the Grand Empire, both domestic and foreign. The Imperial Armed Forces are also able to provide relief support and humanitarian aid, but are seldom used for it. | ||

The FRA was in no position to deter foreign invasions would one have presented itself due to the widespread corruption, lack of morale, insubordination and incompetence, proven by the fact it barely managed to pacify revolts in various regions of the country. Despite this, the FRA remained as the sole barrier between the sovereignty of Aciria and the invasion of a foreign power. | ||

As the Free Republic no longer existed, the FRA seized existing too. For two years, the internal stability was maintained by the respect and fear people had for the new Emperor, and local militias lead by former FRA officers loyal to Jean I. In 1785, Jean I declared the Grand Army of the Empire, reforming the defunct FRA into the earliest branch of the Imperial Armed Forces. Through relentless drills, expanded trade and disciplinary action, the Grand Army of the Empire quickly was transformed to a modern army which was a force to be reckoned with. | ||
A decade after the formation of the Imperial Armed Forces, the Conscription Act was put into effect by Jean I, but eventually was scrapped in 1805 due to the amount of men conscripted meant the quality of the units suffered.

This sparked worry that the Grand Army was headed for the direction of the FRA, a chance Giovanni I wasn't willing to take. | ||
In modern times, the Imperial Armed Forces have made strides towards a self-sufficiency, meaning the army attempts to acquire most of their equipment from domestic suppliers. Due to lack of resources and/or industry, Aciria has looked to [[Caphiria]] for supplying them the equipment they cannot produce themselves. | In modern times, the Imperial Armed Forces have made strides towards a self-sufficiency, meaning the army attempts to acquire most of their equipment from domestic suppliers.
