Exercitus Unionis

The Exercitus Unionis, better known as the Union Grand Army, was Notch's primary fighting force during the first Mob Wars at the dawn of the 1st century AS. It not only contained the legendary Legionary Knights, but tens of thousands of warriors from each united kingdom. It was considered the precursor of the Minecraftian Mobile Infantry.
The types of warriors within each regiment varied. Citizen-warriors wore average fabric clothing, combat boots, and a few armor plates on their chests, legs, and shoulders. Citizen-warriors may in fact be an indirect ancestor of the modern galactic marines. Some regiments also contained warriors such as knights, horseback riders, though some regiments would have uniforms and armor respective to their home nations.
== Known Regiments ==
=== Ultramarian First ===
The Ultramarian First were one of the many early regiments of citizen-warriors and knights, commanded directly by their ruler Roboute Guilliman. Their uniforms and/or armor were gray or silver with large blue markings. Each warrior of the Ultramarians bore the mark of Ultramar, which would also be used by the 13th Legionary Knight chapter and later the Ultramarines.
=== Jasnean Stormbearers ===
The Jasnean Stormbearers originated in the distant kingdom of Jasnea, which was somewhat reminiscent of early Islamic states in Earth's Middle East during the Middle Ages.
=== Agralian Heralds ===
A regiment composed completely of citizen-warriors, the Agralian Heralds were among the most honorable regiments of the Union Grand Army. They were also among the largest of the regiments.
=== Knights of Usturg ===
The Knights of Usturg were one of the smallest regiments, numbering only 200. The Usturg society was somewhat reminiscent of early feudal societies in Germany during the Middle Ages.
=== Sons of Caliban ===
The knights of the city-state of Caliban swore absolute loyalty to their ruler Lion El'Jonson. Some of them were brave enough to ride into battle on actual lions, for the honor of their great Primarch. Like the 1st Legionary Knights chapter, they bore the mark of the Dark Angels.
=== Cthonian Wolfhearts ===
Among the most courageous of Notch's regiments, the Cthonian Wolfhearts swore absolute loyalty and tribute to their ruler, Horus. They stood alongside the 16th Legionary Knights chapter.
=== United Manufactian Dragoons ===
The nation of Manifactus was the first nation to bear industrial technology, and one of the last regiments to join Notch's army. They appeared a few decades into the 1st century AS, and were led by the Primarch Ferrus Manus. They participated in the first battle of the Notch-Herobrine War.
It was the Manufactians that helped Notch's united civilization to advance technologically, but it was also them who decided on a pro-civilian democracy. Judging by this, it can be determined that the Manufactians were the direct influence on the modern United Human Government.
