Gerenian Army
The Gerenian Army is the land-based component of the Gerenia Armed Forces, responsible for the defending sovereignty and the territorial integrity of Gerenia, participating in peacekeeping operations, and providing humanitarian aid and disaster relief.
History
The Army was established in 2012 with the foundation of Gerenia. The Army was first composed of professionals that had been active in Meeredres, and volunteers. Later, in 2013, it was established the mandatory military service, and the Army and the other branches of the military increased their personnel.
In April 2013, a fraction of the Army participated in the conquest of Helfrich Island, an island north of Gerenia. In December, during the anarchy period, the Army fought the forces of the Maremedres Free State and the Republic of Alĵis in the conflict known as the Restoration Campaign.
