Fiction:Republic of Cartonia/Land Military

The Republic of Cartonia's colonies and City-States and wide-spread and prosperous, but cannot rely on the large military forces of their neighbors, such as the Mendel or Amatsukami. They are not typically massive forces, relying on mercenaries to supplement their main forces. This leads to some to believe they are disorganized, and most of their troops have little morale outside of when they get their money. In reality, their forces are dedicated, strong and capable, and while made up of mercenaries, they are capable of defending their borders.

The Republic is not one to usual seek out conquest and war, but rather, use their military to keep their foes out, and to intercept any attackers before they can bring harm to Cartonia's cities and citizens. They also act as protectors and guards for their diplomats, and their trade routes.
