The '''Imperial Naval Fleet''' (Latin: ''Classis Imperialis''), also known as the '''Caphirian Navy''', or the '''Navy of Caphiria''', is the naval warfare service branch of the [[Imperial Armed Forces of Caphiria]], serving as the navy of the [[Imperium of Caphiria]]. With a budget of $ | The '''Imperial Naval Fleet''' ([[Caphiric Latin]]: '''''Classis Imperialis'''''), also known as the '''Caphirian Navy''', or the '''Navy of Caphiria''', is the naval warfare service branch of the [[Imperial Armed Forces of Caphiria]], serving as the navy of the [[Imperium of Caphiria]]. With a budget of $500 billion and 900,000 active crewmen, along with several thousand officers, the navy of Caphiria is the smallest branch of the Imperial military by personnel, despite boasting over xxx hundred ships of varying sizes and classes. In the past few decades, the [[Imperial Aerial Defense Force]] has taken on many of the duties of the navy, namely their most important one of patrolling Imperial waters. Nevertheless, its importance to the Caphirian economy can not be overstated due to its necessity for controlling Caphiria's assets at sea. | ||
Founded in the heat of the [[First Thyriasian War]], the Caphirian Navy has been instrumental in the Caphirian conquest of the [[Ecinis Sea]], but it never enjoyed the prestige of the [[Imperial Legion]]. Throughout their history, the Caphirians remained a primarily land-based people and relied partially on their more nautically inclined subjects, such as the [[Cartadanians]] and the [[Chimor]], to build their ships. Because of that, the navy was never completely embraced by the Caphirian state, and deemed somewhat "un-Caphirian". In antiquity, navies and trading fleets did not have the logistical autonomy that modern ships and fleets possess. Unlike modern naval forces, the navy even at its height never existed as an autonomous service but operated as an adjunct to the Caphirian army. The Navy would not become its own separate branch until after the Second Civil War. | Founded in the heat of the [[First Thyriasian War]], the Caphirian Navy has been instrumental in the Caphirian conquest of the [[Ecinis Sea]], but it never enjoyed the prestige of the [[Imperial Legion]].
