Young Burgoignacs receive their federal conscription orders for training at the age of 18, or after they have completed their high school studies. About two-thirds of the young Burgoinacs are found suited for military service; for those found unsuited, various forms of alternative federal service exist. Annually, approximately 42,000 persons participate in the militia program which consists of a 3 month basic training period, three 30 day special skills training (sabotage/explosives, amphibious operations, long-range shooting), a two-month tactical decision-making class, a two month review training period, culmination in a month-long exercise. Four week-long leaves are provided as part of the program. Once the "year of service" is completed and voting citizenship is attained, citizens can volunteer to continue their participation in the Standardized Militia Program. Continuing participates receive the following benefits: 100% of the first higher education degree paid for, non-competitive status for federal jobs, a $500 tax break/annum, $10,000 stipend/annum and access to housing programs/preferential lending rates. | Young Burgoignacs receive their federal conscription orders for training at the age of 18, or after they have completed their high school studies.

Since the Metropole Forces are not a standing army it requires a series of reserves to maintain their skills in the event that they are needed. [[Burgundie]] achieves this one three levels. The [[LUDC]], the [[Metropolitan Guard]], and the [[Princess Royal's Volunteers]]. | Since the Metropole Forces are not a standing army it requires a series of reserves to maintain their skills in the event that they are needed.

The [[Levantine Union Defense Council]] (LUDC), of which [[Burgundie]] is a co-founding member, provides a convenient loophole to the legal statute preventing [[Burgundie]] from having a standing army in it's [[Levantine|Levantine]] territories. [[Burgundie]] provides a disproportionate amount of personnel support to the LUDC. By subjugating command and control of these units to the LUDC and not a Burgoignesc command, they are considered not a national standing army, but supernational-interagency combat units. This creates a thriving environment for soldiers and commander to train and gain valuable experience while also ensuring that the majority of the Army of Burgundie is capable of engaging in international operations and understanding complex and dynamic command environments. | The [[Levantine Union Defense Council]] (LUDC), of which [[Burgundie]] is a co-founding member, provides a convenient loophole to the legal statute preventing [[Burgundie]] from having a standing army in it's [[Levantine|Levantine]] territories.
