It was founded first as the military of the Demirite dynasty through the absorption of the militaries of the Central Yasterian Kingdoms into the Legion of the Kingdom of Fidakar by Saidun the Conqueror. It was taken over by the Packilvanian Communist Party in 1917 and merged with the Packilvanian Liberation Army (the paramilitary wing of the PCP). The [[Carriers of Mercy]], a charity organization for the rescue and repatriation of humans being persecuted by the Communist regime, had a military component known as the Warriors of Mercy which was merged into the Packilvanian Armed Forces in the 1980s upon the defeat of the Communists by [[Amhoud I]].
It is one of the [[List of countries by military expenditure|largest militaries in the world by budget]], [[Nuclear weapons state|nuclear weapons]], [[List of countries by number of military personnel|manpower]], vehicles, vessels and air craft. Coupled with its chemical and biological weapons programs, it is one of the most powerful militaries in the world. Having fought in war continuously for the better part of the 20th century, it is one of the most battle hardened and formidable militaries in the world.
Line 23:
The invention of the steam engine, specifically railways liberated the military from the constraints of horseback and camelback. Men and materiel could be moved across greater distances. Trains have remained instrumental in moving men and materiel quickly across the harsh deserts. The invention of the internal combustion engine was exploited for military purposes through the use of self-propelled land vehicles such as trucks to transport troops and weapons. These vehicles were slow but when mounted with guns, proved effective at strengthening infantry forces. This technology was perfected such that self-propelled artillery was created. But is was not until the Great War that tanks first entered the battlefield and enacted incredible destruction on enemy forces.
After the [[Great War]], the Imperial Packilvanian Armed Forces was taken over by the Packilvanian Communist Party and integrated into the Packilvanian Liberation Army. The PLA was a significant force in politics and the economy during the reign of the Communist Party and its role included spearheading research and development. It was from the work of the PLA that nuclear weapons, satellites and the internet arose in Packilvania in the 20th century such that today Packilvania has the highest number of nuclear warheads in the world. The PLA was defeated by the Warriors of Mercy, the military wing of the [[Carriers of Mercy]] and by extension the [[Bedonite dynasty]]. When the PCP was defeated the Bedonites merged the Warriors of Mercy and the PLA to form the Packilvanian Armed Forces, hearkening back to the Imperial Packilvanian Armed Forces of the Demirites.
