Te Corkonian Militia stems all the way back to 2020, when Cork first started there was no official standing army, so in turn a peoples militia took charge of the country's defence. This militia was led by leader of Cork grandhappy.

History

War of Independence

Militia on the war of independence.
Militia before Cork's first battle.

As there was no army the only "soldiers" there was, were all part of a militia. To be noted this militia was not even named at this point. It had no hierarchy, structure, flags, coat of arms, insignia, uniforms or anything. It comprised of around 11-13 people.

Additionally the militia took control at the first ever battle Cork was in, against the "united bloxxers league" (a now defunct raiders group). The militia won this battle by a small margin.

It was during the war of independence (which included both the battles against UBL and the other irish group) that structure started to take place, a CoLeader was assigned (Junker) and ranks were eventually created, although broken.

1st Cork-Celtic war

During the 1st Cork-Celtic war the military still wasn't as developed. It still relied on just a big group changing alot. Inwhich the militia was still used extensively along with the army.

2nd Cork Celtic war-Present day

The militia was not used as much after the 1st Cork Celtic war, with multiple advancements made in the army/navy/airforce and more structured hirearchy being established, it just had less use.

Present Day

In the present day of Cork the militia still exists. Each County has its own militia force, the militias are not apart of the army nor are commanded by the army, they are essentially like a county's own army for defence. Militias are funded by the county they are in, from its weapons to uniforms.

Operations

Alot of militias are un-operational due to the less imposed threat of invasion from a foreign power, some militias are still active as ceremonial like the Rathlin militia. Some still see active recruitment and regular trainings/exercises like the Waterford milita and the Limerick milita.

2024 Corkonian Re-organisation

In January of 2024 the Corkonian Government took charge of the militia temporarily too standardise the militia and organise it. This is known as the Home Army Act. It included:

  • Standardizing uniforms.
  • Standardizing units.
  • Standardizing ranks.
  • Standardizing equipment.
  • Establishing a chain of command.
  • Supply and funding from County councils.
  • Designated jurisdictions.
  • Designated areas of operation.
  • Rules and laws of engagement.

Active Units

Here is a list of active militia units of the Royal Corkonian Militia.

Equipment

Here is a list of actively used equipment of militia units. Not all units/detachments will be using the same stuff all the time however this is what are usually supplied.

Note it is forbidden for a militia unit to be equipped with automatic weaponry unless it is fully permitted too by county authorities and government authorities. Such weapons are to be regularly inspected and must be put in secure lockers.

Weapons

Name Origin Type Caliber Photo Notes
Pistols
Heckler & Koch USP Germany Semi-Automatic Pistol 9x19mm The USP is the primary pistol of the Royal Militia. Not all militiamen are assigned one and infact is rarely issued at all. Standard militiamen are expected to carry revolvers instead of a semi-automatic pistol. However, these are still used in heated areas like Waterford and Limerick.
Assault Rifles
AR-10 United States Assault Rifle 5.56×45mm The AR-10 is extensively used by militia units. The militia was granted AR-10 stockpiles that were retired from the Corkonian police and armed forces. It also does not provide capabilities of full automatic fire and only allows for semi-automatic.
L85A1 United Kingdom Assault Rifle 5.56×45mm The L85A1 is the standard issue rifle of the Royal Militia. Its designated the L85A1M1 as it is modified to not have automatic fire. It only allows for semi-automatic fire.
Rifles & Sniper rifles
