The Cutter Service considers itself the spiritual successor to the Provincial Fleets of the Coscivian Imperial Navy, which were militia raised in the Ixnayan coastal provinces to patrol coastal waters using locally-built {{wp|currachs}} and interdict marauding Cromwelute ships. More formally, it originated in the early Confederal Period following the Republican Revolution, and was organised as a division of the Confederal Navy called the Littoral Fleet. For the first centuries of its existence, its main functions were protecting the Kiravian coast and coastal settlements from piracy, enforcing customs laws, and transporting ground troops between [[Great Kirav]] and the Isles. | The Cutter Service considers itself the spiritual successor to the Provincial Fleets of the Coscivian Imperial Navy, which were militia raised in the Ixnayan coastal provinces to patrol coastal waters using locally-built {{wp|currachs}} and interdict marauding Cromwelute ships.
