The 1st Infantry Division fought in various engagements throughout the Chemgotan War of Independence which lasted from 2027 until 2036. The conflict bolstered the reputation and amiability of the 1st Infantry Division, the military unit was notable for various feats and efforts it displayed during the conflict, the division also had the most recipients of the Hero of the Republic award, the highest distinguished award of the Chemgotan Defence Force. Ceremoniously the 1st Infantry Division was also decorated with the Hero of the Republic award entirely for the division to keep along with the rest of the initial divisions formed during the initial stages of the Chemgotan War of Independence. Following the end of the Chemgotan War of Independence, the 1st Infantry Division was frequently placed into reserve or was deployed to undergo various upgrades, overhauls, reforms and to participate in annual military war games and training operations for recruits and to accumulate to newer technologies supplied to the unit, the unit was also on the highest of receiving logistics compared to any other Infantry Divisions apart of the Chemgotan Ground Force. As such, the 1st Infantry Division was split into various sub-units and assigned to different military operations during times of peace, in some instances the whole unit was deployed to fight in more larger conventional conflicts.
== History ==
=== Chemgotan War of Independence ===
The 1st Infantry Division was formed on 12 August 2027 in the city of Magadan, Magadan Oblast which was at the time under Russian rule, the 1st Infantry Division comprised of civilian volunteers who fought for the revolutionary cause against Russia for Igor Elmpt's movement, the unit was the first of all Ground Force units to be formed within the Chemgotan Defence Force entirely, the unit consisted of 10,000 soldiers with some former Russian veterans and foreign volunteer units. The 1st Infantry Division confronted units and military formations of the Russian Armed Forces during the Battle of Magadan, the first battle of the overall Chemgotan War of Independence, from there on the 1st Infantry Division continued to be reinforced with new acquired stockpiled equipment and was the first modernised, professionalised and highly organised fighting division of the Chemgotan Ground Force, the 1st Infantry Division had a variety of equipment ranging from various nations mostly provided by the supporting Western powers which aided Chemgota with military equipment and support throughout the conflict, the 1st Infantry Division also partook in the most pivotal and decisive engagements of the Chemgotan War of Independence and were important in changing the tide of battle, the 1st Infantry Division was under the command of the notorious commanding officer of the unit, General Christov Yakovich who was also a fellow representative within the Chemgotan Parliamental Senate and being apart of the Chemgotan provisional government, Yakovich usually led his forces into battle directly rather from afar and his reputation was bolstered from these actions, he also had a positive mindset and media outlook which further rose him through the ranks of the Chemgotan government and the Chemgotan Defence Force. The unit was also under the command of various notable figures of the Chemgotan forces such as the founding father and first President Igor Elmpt and Ali Tupenlov for either temporary commanding roles or to guide the unit along with others such as a larger Army group, as such the 1st Infantry Division was chiefly under the de facto command of Igor Elmpt, as Igor remarked that the unit was the "best fighting force the CDF has to offer."
=== Post-independence operations ===
Following the conclusion of the Chemgotan War of Independence, and with Chemgotan independence being ratified with the Treaty of Magadan which saw Chemgota become an independent sovereign state and also gain independence from the Russian Federation in 2036. Immediately following the end of the war, the Remnant War began which saw the 1st Infantry Division being deployed and utilised in counter-insurgency operations and infiltration raids against pockets of Russian Remnants and Loyalists scattered throughout the newly formed Republic of Chemgota, overtime the Russian revolutionaries were subdued and their activities dismantled with the 1st Infantry Division contributing to a major blow against Nikolayev's Regimental Army and other organised Russian militant groups. The 1st Infantry Division for the most part remained in Magadan as the main Chemgotan Ground Force division within the city during the post-war period, the 1st Infantry Division also underwent a series of reforms and reorganisations of its military power, doctrine, change of commanders annually and the implementation and formation of new sub-units attached to the division. The 1st Infantry Division saw combat operations in the Dillingham Revolution which took place in the State of Alaska, United States from 2042 until 2043 when the rebellion was quashed by a joint Chemgotan-American offensive operation to retake the region. Eventually, the 1st Infantry Division was deployed to Kamchatka when hostilities between Chemgota and Japan emerged and escalated to a full blown conflict between the two countries.
=== Kuril War ===
The 1st Infantry Division was deployed to the southern tip of the State of Kamchatka when hostilities between the State of Japan and the Republic of Chemgota subsequently erupted to an unprecedented level in 2045 over the Kuril Islands dispute, Japan, despite having the Southern Kuril Islands returned to their authority sought to acquire the Northern Kurils from Chemgota which started the conflict, the 1st Infantry Division was originally positioned in the Federal capital of Kamchatsky where it was joined mostly by local Kamchatkan military formations, thereafter with a week following the announcement of hostilities between Chemgota and Japan, the 1st Infantry Division was sent to Ozernovskiy, a settlement located on the southern half of the Kamchatka Peninsula. The 1st Infantry Division was then transported across the First Kuril Strait to reach the island of Shumshu, before adjoining a mounted Chemgotan Defence Force effort which focused on the recapturing of Onekotan from the Japanese, the 1st Infantry Division bolstered the landing efforts undertaken by the Marine Corps on Onekotan, but due to the unit's unfamiliarity with amphibious assaults it suffered substantial losses against Japanese forces in the hastily response of the Japanese forces. Eventually Chemgotan forces were victorious on retaking Onekotan from the Japanese invaders but suffered large losses in the process on air, land and sea. Following the Battle of Onekotan the 1st Infantry Division recovered from its losses sustained from the previous engagement with Japanese forces and was organised to be a defensive unit, with assets from the 1st Infantry Division providing coastal and aerial defence of several fortified Chemgotan positions across the Chemgotan Kuril Island territories during the latter stages of the Kuril War. One year later, the Japanese and Chemgotans came to an agreement which ended the war with a status quo, as the conflict was indecisive on who was the victor.
