The '''Royal Antoran Armada''' (Corric: ''Armada de Antora Réal,'' abbreviated AAR) is the maritime force of the [[Royal Antoran Defense Forces]]. The Armada was first established in 1710, as the First Constitution of the Kingdom of Corrí called for the crown and government to maintain a professional naval force to defend Corric Shipping. What had previously been the independent fleets of nobles and merchants were consolidated, refitted, and organized into the Royal Corric Armada. The fleets of ships were slowly modernized, until after the [[Great War]], which saw much of the steam-and-sail armored ships of the Armada quickly replaced with contemporary technology.
The '''Royal Antoran Armada''' (Corric: ''Armada de Antora Réal,'' abbreviated AAR) is the maritime force of the [[Royal Antoran Defense Forces]]. The Armada was first established in 1710, as the First Constitution of the Kingdom of Corrí called for a substantial fleet of warships to defend the kingdom's merchant shipping. The Royal Corric Armada was assembled from the various personal ships of the monarchy, nobility, and trade guilds, becoming a substantial presence in eastern [[Novaris]]. The Armada performed escort duties on the historic trade routes between Corrí and [[Arcturia]] along the [[Concordian Ocean]], and western [[Gondwana]] via the [[Pacific Ocean]], and continues to act in this role for Antoran shipping near Novaris.


The Armada was briefly subject to a schism in the 1985 Corric Succession Crisis. Those squadrons that rebelled were removed from the Armada Service Rolls and their vessels mothballed to excise the stain of their dishonor. The mission statement of the Armada is to defend the coastal territory and oceanic economic zones of Antora from foreign threats, to protect state-sponsored shipping abroad, and to prevent waterborne crime. As of 2021 the Armada maintains a strength of 80,890 personnel, 101 watercraft, and seven shore installations.
The Armada has taken inspiration on composition and organization from several foreign navies, including the [[Cryrian Defense Forces|Cryrian]] and [[Morstaybishlian Empire|Morst]], though in recent years efforts have been made to adhere to overall Antroran defense doctrine by eliminating most of the capabilities to carry out offensive actions. The mission statement of the Armada is to defend the coastal territory and oceanic economic zones of Antora from foreign threats, to protect state-sponsored shipping abroad, and to prevent waterborne crime. The Armada has two speciality divisions: Armada Maritime Safety, which performs search & rescue, salvage, and navigation safety duties, and Armada Customs & Excise, which performs harbor patrol, customs inspections, and smuggling interdiction duties. As of 2021 the Armada maintains a strength of 80,890 personnel, 101 watercraft, and seven shore installations.
