Andorn Military and History

The Andorn Legion is the official military in charge of the defense of Andorn since Andorn's formation after the Allium-Coalition War. It has served and reformed under Andorn and been involved in multiple conflicts and wars.

Formation
The Andorn Legion was formed by Capna on 8/19/2021 due to the country's need of defense since its declaration of independence in the Allium-Coalition War. This Military consists of three corps all dedicated to the protection of Andorn.

Reformation
Following the Second Andorn Crisis, Brainstormkid was given permission to rebuild the Andorn Legion since Capna's betrayal left the command structure dismantled. The new Andorn Legion would keep the original corp structure though it was debated on its usefulness. Brainstormkid argued that having the strategy corp and the Supplier corp limited Andorn's soldiers willing to do actual fighting and not just strategize. This argument was shot down and the corp system was reimplemented. The corp system would prove fatal during the Forest Council War when the strategy corp commands complicated things with the soldier corp commands (Both soldier corp and strategy commanders both had equal rank, which created confusion on who's orders to follow) The Andorn military was reformed by Brainstormkid again after the Forest Council war into the Kaiser System (Later changed to the Advisor System) which gave Kaiser (Later the General of the Army) to make decisions supported by multiple Advisors for war planning. Note: Brainstormkid never officially held any military position, but role was to reform the military.)

Disbandment
Following the Fourth Andorn Crisis, the Fourth Empire of Andorn ceased to be an existing entity and the Andorn Legion was disbanded as well.

Second Reformation
In August of 2023, Andorn would reform under Kaiserin CharlieS401 which led to the reformation of the Andorn Legion as the standing army of the reformed Andorn and is currently still active today under Kaiser Otto von Savras.

Army
The Andorn Legion is the largest composition of the Andorn Military with it being the oldest service branch in Andorn history and one of the most active of the four branches. The Army is dedicated to the protection of Andorn's internal boundaries and if necessary, deployed overseas in the interest of the Kaiser of Andorn.

Navy
The Imperial Navy is the official navy of Andorn founded by Brainstormkid on 10/4/2021. The navy was formed to gain naval superiority in the Sea of Pearls and protect Andorn naval interests. The Andorn ships will provide trade escort and production for important items for Andorn merchants and citizens. The navy switched hands to the Wivamovia Royal Navy following the Third Andorn Crisis, but later rejoined Andorn.

Air
The Andorn Air Force is one of the smallest branches of the Andorn Legion comprising of only one aircraft (elytra) at is current disposal.

Allium-Coalition War
Andorn was a vassel state of Bardonia when the Allium-Coaltion War broke out. Due to the scale of the conflict and interests in protecting his region, ShadowKing seceded from Andorn and declared neutrality. Unfortunately, this neutrality sadly, did not prevent the Pillars of the Sun from being attacked by Coalition Forces. The coalition would be later criticized for the outright attack of neutral city in which most defenders were defending because of their friendship with HimoS401.

Battle of Aequalis
The 1st Andorn Expeditionary Divison was deployed to the Battle of Aequalis to aid their Huitcan Allies.

Forest War
On 9/1/2021, the squatters of Forest Council spotted and killed Kasier Lucius Von Savras for cutting down a tree. These were not the first of these attacks as multiple attacks have previously occurred on Andorn and Aurlunor citizens. In retaliation for the illegal banditing and unprovoked attack, Kaiser Lucius mobilized all Andorn forces to destroy the Forest Council and aid Aurlunor allies.

The 2nd Andorn Expeditionary Division was deployed to aid Aurlunor forces.

Engagements:


 * Raid of Forest Council
 * Battle of Forest Council

Outcome: Forest Council agreed with Aurlunor (Note: Without Andorn representation) to cease hostilities and withdraw from Syltor for 60,000 dollars. This is controversy because Aurlunor never contacted the Kaiser or the diplomat for Andorn about this deal.

Goblin Revolution
The province of Askonia, there are multiple goblins who live in Goblin Town, resent Andorn's human population and believe them to be inferior. Throughout the weeks, Andorn has been constantly been in an eternal war against the maruaders in multiple cities throughout the country. It is said that the Goblins have successfully taken the heads of Kaiser Lucius Von Savras and all of the Andorn Archons using their feared Goblin Special Forces Suits. The goblins goal is to submit the rule of Andorn under the superior Goblin race and achieve all heads of all Andorn citizens for their torture chamber and statue. The Goblins would announce a sacrifice to the Goblin God Mog to achieve superiority over all of Andorn. The Andorn Legion would mobilize and attack Goblin Town try to put an end to the revolution at the battle of Goblin Town.

The 2nd Andorn Infantry Division was deployed to take Goblin town.

War on Bandits
On 9/9/2021, Andorn declared war on Capna and his squatter settlement of Septa. This war would occur when Capna the day prior created a r-claims-update in the Mapmaking Guild for Rathnir. This was the last straw for Andorn leadership (and Andorn citizens) after he was trusted into the Andorn Discord, but then decided to use the perms to talk toxicity about Andorn, and massacring Andorn cities, and giving no RP reasons for doing all of this(He was just being toxic to Andorn). Tired of letting Capna have a foothold in Andorn and Syltor, Andorn announced that it will fully mobilize and change its army from volunteer to serve to mandatory military service. Immediately, skirmishes would erupt in Andorn as Capna would bandit citizens especially in the city of Hinomir(The citizens were severely massacred on multiple occasions). Andorn called to arms all Syltor nations for support that day and received no aid from any country. Fed up with the abandonment of their allies, Andorn leadership decided to, "Fight this war till the end." Originally, the war was to begin on 9/10/2021, but admins delayed the war by 2 weeks. When the 2 week delay of land wars, Capna tried to schedule an RP war between Andorn. This was denied because Capna never showed RP reasons for creating a squatter settlement. (Note: The mercenary group Ulfaeng decided to support Capna has no RP reason, just stating that they are helping a friend in a foreign conflict they should not be involved in) After nearly 3 weeks, Andorn was able to call in Uldarash volunteers, Aurlunor volunteers, Ranger volunteers, and Kyydrosil volunteers to aid them. Though Andorn spent weeks on preparations, Capna announced that he had left the world of Rathnir. Upon receiving this, Andorn forces demobilized on 10/4/2021. Although no formal battle occurred, Andorn military had rapidly expanded to become a regional power in equipment and soldiers.

The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Infantry divisions were deployed.

Andorn sent supplies and troops in the attempted assassination of Astr0 during his coronation and supported Ryzani forces during the battle of Volkoegrad bridge.

Lennox, Valle, and Credian forces managed to repulse the attack by the squatters during the first battle and managed to push them back to their squatter settlement. While it was clear that allied forces had a clear victory, Arya still declared victory and willingness to continue the fight. Seeing that the squatter's stubbornness to leave the region was proving a large annoyance, Andorn, GSE, Kyydrosil, and Aurlunor all deployed their forces to aid in the war and form the Second Syltor Peacekeeping Task Force.
