Lake Corps

The Lake Corps is Lac Glacei's small but formidable navy that provides defense and aid to the country's significant aquatic resources.

The Lake Corps operates out of Alpreaux, which has the only deep harborage capable of anchoring the Grand Duchy's corvettes. Due to the low depth of the lake, larger traditional warships are not used. The navy utilizes a small armada of gunboats to patrol both the coast and the River Glacei, south to Lontinien.

Ducal Army of Lac Glacei

Each of Lac Glacei's cantons contributes recruits to the army. In addition, each commune is obligated to send 1% of the city's population for basic training (upon completion they may opt to serve in the army for 2 years, or serve as a communal guard for 4 years and return to their home city). The army's main training camp is located in Jardinais. The army is divided into brigades comprised of battalions numbering 1,000 soldiers each. A brigade typically contains between three and six battalions.
