# History

## 1945

After Kluatau's independence in 1945, The Kluatauan Military was formed from scratch. National Service was implemented for able-bodied males age 18 and above. 900,000 civilians were called in for National Service, and served for 2 years. Kluatau mass ordered military equipment from neighbouring countries and their own companies in bulk.

## 1952-1957

The Kluatauan Military was responsible for the defense of Kluatau during the Tetrad War. As continental tensions rose from the Oclian Military, The Kluatauan Military mobilised their troops to the borders after the first wave of rocket bombs dropped on Kluatau. Every inch of land between Kluatau and Ocli were filled with soldiers on both sides, neither wanting to fight. However, from orders by Saamuel Levandi, Oclian troops marched through the field of No Man's Land that separated Ocli and Kluatau. Despite being outnumbered 25-5, Kluatauan troops held off the invasion at the city border until the end of the war, but did not hold for long at Apiatu, after Oclian troops occupied parts of Drighton, and swept in from Western Kluatau.

After the occupation of Drorlo and Balcona, the Tiavaru Council picked out civilians ages 16-60 who were willing to fight in the Kluatauan Volunteer Corps. 20,000 men were recruited and were taught the basics of Guerrilla Warfare and Urban Warfare, and how to fire different weapons supplied by Senepeng, who sent weapon crates by planes supplied by Fletering, and would now fight for the smaller villages in Western Kluatau. After the loss of Kihat and the Oclians marching to Malsarih, The KVC opted for more violent warfare tactics. The first recorded Car Bombing was used on July 30th, 1952 when the KVC took civilian cars and armed them with bombs, and drove them to Oclian bases, blowing them up. The KVC would set up landmines on roads, ambush Oclians in trees, and initiate bombing raids with the Kluatauan Military. This would not go without collateral damage, however, with many civilian casualties due to landmines. However, this was effective towards Oclian vehicles, and their advance were halted until mass bombing raids by the Oclian Airforce, allowing them to move in further, capturing the entire Liverar-Dracon and Kitco. Rombulaco was next, and the Military were running out of munitions due to factories in the city being subject to bombings.

In 1954, Drighton entered the war after they took back Apiatu, and the Oclians were left stranded in Kluatau, with no direct ties to mainland Ocli. In 1955, the Kluatauan Military called out to the militaries of the United States and the British Empire, to stop the spread of Communism in Asia. The United States Army, coming in from Vietnam and the Commonwealth forces, coming in from British Malaya landed at Drighton and initiated large attacks on Mainland Ocli. After Berusferg's liberation by Drighton, The militaries of Drighton, Berusferg, The United States and the Commonwealth were at the aid of Kluatau. Before the Oclians rushed De Bedroma, they retreated after Ocli's capital was firebombed to hell. The Oclians retreated fast, and the ones who weren't fast enough were killed by firing squad. They came into Kluatau in flames and left Kluatau in flames.

## 1960-1974

During the Emergency, the militaries of Ocli, Kluatau, Drighton and Berusferg were put on high alert due to Zero and Oclian Communist Party members initiating bombings. The KVC, being trained in the jungles, were tasked to scout out Zero and OCP members in said jungles, even being dispatched in Drighton and Berusferg to wipe out secret bases. Throughout the entire war, the KVC found and swept 1,456 OCP bases in the jungle, and only 3 Zero Organisation bases.

## 2001

After the events of September 11, security was tightened in Craudoa and the Kluatauan Military were tasked to do searches in villages and the city. Zero Bombings were getting more frequent, despite them not being affiliated with Al-Qaeda or ISIS.

## 2003

During the outbreak of SARS in Craudoa, the Kluatauan Military aided in Humanitarian Efforts across Craudoa and South East Asia.
