==Military==
Rodenia's military expenditure was 6 percent of their Gross Domestic Product in 2020, totaling 41.09 billion KRB. Conscription is mandatory at 18. It employs just over 650,000 service personnel over its three branches, which is 1.57 percent of the total population. Rodenia's military equipment and technology are typically dated from the late 1990s and 2000s, with a few exceptions. Rodenian service personnel experience less quality training on average than their counterparts in 2015, reducing the quality of the armed forces in exchange for numbers. This is indicative of their fast rate of militarisation which is predicted to reach 1 million service personnel by 2024-2025 (including paramilitary, militarised police and private militias). Rodenia could theoretically amass 2.5 million people; although a force of that size would not be as efficient.
 
Rodenia has a blue-fleet capable navy, although today it primarily focuses on defence and surveilence within its green-waters. It includes 8 diesel-electric submarines of varying ages across the 1990s and 2010s, 3 Amphibious warfare ships (tank landing and platform docks), 10 frigates from varying ages across the 1980s to 2000s, 3 corvettes commissioned between 1997-2001, 26 offshore patrol boats, 7 mine countermeasures, 14 auxillary ships, 16 landing craft, 15 survey ships, 34 inshore patrol ships, and over 40 fast patrol boats. Its navy was assessed in 2019 and has many ships being built, including two frigates for 2023-24.
