Army

Main article: Gerenia Army

The Gerenia Army is composed of three Regiments, each one being assigned a zone of the country:

The Army is structured as follows:

  • 6 Infantry Battalions
  • 1 Artillery Battalion
  • 1 Tank Battalion
  • 1 Engineer Battalion
  • 1 Staff College
  • 1 Signals Company
  • 1 Logistics Group.

Air Force

The Gerenia Air Force is headquartered in Mežan, where it has its combat and training base. A support base is being constructed in Nueva Junín, in the province of Maremedres. 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 Gerenia Navy provides defence of Gerenia, its territorial waters, and the Camoleo, which forms the southeastern border. The Navy has two bases: 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. There are plans to build a third base in Helfrich Island.
