Arkanian Imperial Marine Corps

The Arkanian Imperial Marine Corps (AIMC), sometimes referred to as the Arkanian Marines, is the branch of the Imperial Arkanian Armed Forces responsible for expeditionary and amphibious operations and works closely with the seafaring forces of the Navy and the forces of the Army. The Marine Corps, at its founding, was very small in number but started being built up by the new government. The presence of a Marine Corps, however, was already a step above from the pre-Terran Free Republic of Arkania, which lacked such a force. 
== History ==
=== Formation of the Arkanian Marines (2038) ===
The Arkanian Imperial Marine Corps was founded in the year 2038 along with the other branches of the Imperial Arkanian Armed Forces. At its founding, the Marines were one of the smallest branches of the military along with the Arkanian Imperial Air Force, due to the previous government, the Second Arkanian Republic, putting much of its attention on the Navy and Army. The Marine Corps operated new vehicles such as the A2-C2 Main Battle Tank, and the B1-C1 Light Tank/Tank Destroyer made specifically for the Marine Corps. 
=== Expansion of the Marine Corps (2038-) ===
Later that year, the Arkanian Imperial Marine Corps received newly-developed aircraft to expand its arsenal. The aircraft received included, but are not limited to, the F-38A and F-38B Air Superiority Fighters and the I-23 Interceptors.

=== The Arkanian Expansion (2038-) ===
The Arkanian Imperial Marine Corps were among the forces who landed on the recently acquired planets of neighboring systems, scouting out the areas to determine whether or not the planets have sentient life. Arkanian Marines established military bases on habitable planets determined not to harbor any sentient life, in conjunction with the Army and Air Force.
