Novayan Army

The Novayan Army is the land warfare service branch of the Novayan Armed Forces. It is one of seven uniformed services of Novaya.
==History==
The Novayan Army' roots trace back to the Novayan Revolutionary Army, which fought against the Hispanian colonial forces in the bloody and brutal Novayan Revolution. After forcing Hispania to sign the Treaty of Morales, leading to the independence of the Novayan State, the Novayan Revolutionary Army is still active until the arrival of the United North American States, which helped modernize, train and equip the Novayan Revolutionary Army, which soon later become a part of UNAS forces in Novaya, and modernize Novaya as a whole after it agreed to protect it in return until it is ready to join the new world.
After acquiring autonomy from the UNAS, the UNAS-trained Novayan Army saw combat in the Middle East against the Ottomans who, during the First Great World War, signed the Treaty of Ankara alongside the Novayans and Turks that led to the creation of an independent Kingdom of Kurdistan. Between the 1920s and 1930s, the Novayan Army slowly grew in size thanks to the Novayan government providing economic and social incentives for North American companies and civilians and promises of education in return for joining the Novayan Commonwealth military, then composed of an army and a tiny yet growing nascent navy, for a total service of four years.
Before the onset of the Second Great World War, the Novayan Army deployed three contingents to the Union of Bravnekan Republics, Australis and the United North American States in preparation for the return of the Zeitschen monarchy and the liberation of Romagna and Venezia. It saw action alongside the United North American States against the Royal Italian military, Wehrmacht and Imperial Fusoan military, where Novayan troops helped capture enemy equipment including ships.
After Zeitschland's defeat and, to the shocked Novayans, the division into three nations, South Zeitschland was occupied by the Novayan Army, which helped rebuild South Zeitschland, headed by the House of Hohenzollern. While it did not see any combat, it does perform observer missions in the Yuoknan War and the Indochina Wars. Its only involvement in foreign wars were the Kampuchean War, where Novaya provided troops and supplies to Tonkin and Vietnam in combating Democratic Kampuchea, and the Falklands War, which saw and assisted the United Kingdom in retaking the Falklands Island. The Novayan Army is later involved in the Persian Gulf War, where Novayan Forces Kurdistan protects Kurdistan's southern border and five Novayan units, one of which is the Novayan Army's Kampfgruppe Lehr Division, assisted in the liberation of Kuwait from Iraqi occupation.
