Earth Armed Forces (Reboot)

The Earth Armed Forces are the primary military force of the United Commonwealth of Earth. It consists of the Earth Ground Forces, Earth Space Forces, and Royal Guard. The King of Earth is the Commander in Chief and directs the military along with the King's Hand.

The Earth Armed Forces were formed after the unification of Earth in 5E 1. A successor of the Supreme City Army, the Earth Armed Forces inherited its equipment, officers, and doctrines from Supreme City after it united Earth.

Being the largest military on the planet in recent years, the Earth Armed Forces draws its personnel from all over the planet, but especially from Supreme City. The Earth Government reserves the right to utilize conscription, however it has not been necessary since its inception.

Doctrinally, the Earth Armed Forces use a variety of vehicles and high-tech weapons. However, since 5E 1, the lack of an existential threat has reduced the innovation of weaponry. As such, much of the equipment the Earth Armed Forces use are aging and up for replacement.

History
In 4E 1004, Supreme City began its conquest of Earth, led by the Washington family, who had been the leaders of Supreme City for generations. Supreme City used its military to put down the ravaging warlords and bandits that had loose rulership in the rural and sparsely inhabited places on Earth. By 4E 1029, the Earth had been conquered by Supreme City.

5E 1 marked the beginning of the United Commonwealths of Earth. In tandem with this creation, the Earth Armed Forces were also established. The King's Hand was appointed by the King to oversee the Earth Armed Forces.

The Earth Ground Forces evolved from the Supreme City Army and other armed forces it absorbed in 5E 1. The Earth Space Forces were established in 5E 3 to facilitate expansion outside of Earth. A select few individuals who were shown to have excellent combat prowess were chosen to form the Royal Guard in 5E 3.

In 5E 20, the question of the use of highly skilled Ki users was answered by the creation of the Earth Special Forces, a subdivision of the Earth Ground Forces. The Earth Special Forces takes volunteers who are adept in Ki use and trains them to operate in small strike squads.
