Army

Main article: Gerenian Army

The Gerenian Army is composed of eight brigades, of which four are assigned a zone of the country. The brigades are:

  • 1st Infantry Brigade
  • 2nd Infantry Brigade
  • Jungle Brigade
  • Mountain Brigade
  • Armored Brigade
  • Paratrooper Brigade
  • Army Aviation Brigade
  • Special Operations Group

Air Force

The Gerenian Air Force is headquartered in Mežan, where it has its combat and training base. Several support bases exist all over the country. The Air Force's main missions are to protect the nation's territorial air space, and to provide logistical support to the Army.

Navy

The Gerenian Navy provides defence of Gerenia, its territorial waters, and the Camoleo, which forms part of the southeastern border. The Navy has two bases in operation: one in Bau Fusares, in the province of Maremedres (where the Navy's headquarters are also located), and another one in Arina Bay, in the province of Erstveda. Two other Navy bases are situated in Helfrich Island and eastern Barzat.
