The Scarlettian Royal Navy

### Overview

Following the declaration of independance in 2200 the fledling republic needed to quickly assemble a defensive naval force to defend from the Wynter Regime Navy (WRN). In 2203, when the war began in earnest, Admiral Veil was appointed to command the newly formed Scarlettian Navy (SN), assembled from Regime ships that defected (120 Submarines and 400 Destroyers). Following the defense of Aldorria the navy's value was shown and quickly spending to begin construction of new ships began. Following the redaction of the Scarlettian navy, the force was established as,

* 1 Aircraft Carrier
* 10 Submarines
* 34 Destoyers
* 1 Battlecruiser
* 40 Patrol Ships

### History

Following the loss of Admiral Veil in the latter half of 2203, the then first councilor of the district of Scarlettesia Lilith Evergreen was promoted to rank of fleet admiral of the Scarlettian Navy. Under her command the navy quickly rose to prominance, following the the artifical island crisis, the defense of Aldorria, and the battle of the Northern Coast. She also brought about a long period of rapid naval build up, quickly expanding naval capacity, brought about by the new capital ships created by Vice Admiral Chris of H&H Maritime.

The navy was bolstered by a Rossinian donation of 10 warships in 2204 adding 6 submarines, 3 cruisers, and 1 battle cruiser to the fleet.

In 2205 following the ratification of the 2nd Constiution the Scarlettian Navy was renamed the Scarlettian Royal Navy. Later that year L&L fully mechanized the fleet, deploying over 27,400 units in both active duty and reserve as an active fighting force. Still using non driods for non-combat roles such as dockyards, organization, and certain manufacturing jobs. This proved critical during the Battle of the Sullied Wine, in which the Royal Navy achived its first truely great accomplishment, with the aid of the Royal Airforce, completely destroying the People's Navy of Hongten. Crippling the nations commerce and ability to continue in the war. This also allowed the Royal Navy to station a patrol fleet off Hongten's Southern Coast to destroy WR shipping and naval operations in the area.

In 2207 the Royal Navy scored a majory victory during the Second Battle of the Gulf, in which a primaily Scarlettian naval force aided by the Royal Air Force, completely oblitered the Imperial Atarashi Navy, capturing dozens of ships, and sinking the rest. Along with the capture of the fleet admiral Cecilia H. over 30 Captains, 320 officers of varying ranks, and over 15,000 sailors. Much the same as with Hongten, this crippled Atarashi's ability to hold the Colinsian Gulf, now relying on its similarly crippled airforce and caostal defenses, and severing its economic artery with the WR.

### Present Day

Following 9 years of naval buildup the Royal navy is now one of if not the strongest among the Non-American Countrys navies. Outclassing any single Non-American Country's navy in terms of numbers of ships, tonnage, and technology. Following the acquisition of H&H Maritime, the navy now has full control over the development and production of ships, opening a new age of naval technologies. The SRN is now divided into five fleets to allow the Empire to project its power and defend its colonies, around the world. She now stands at:

* 20 Aircraft Carriers
