Confederate Army

The Confederate Army handles the defense of all Confederate planets. Between ten thousand to five million troops are on duty at any one time, depending on the planet.

The members of the Confederate Army are recruited among the general population. After going through a gruelling six-month training programme, those selected for the Army are then deployed to whatever units are in need at the moment, though Army Command makes it a point not to assign troopers to their home planet.

Formation
The Regular Army of the Black Star Confederacy, known by its more informal designation 'The Confederate Army' or RAC, was founded immediately after the Unification War in approximately 1,000 BBY from the remains of the Imperial Army and the Republic Defence Force.

Initially, the Regular Army consisted of fifty-two infantry brigades, twelve armoured brigades and two artillery regiments, totalling roughly three-hundred-thousand troops.

The army remained roughly the same size for centuries, as the already standing army was more than enough to ward off potential invaders.

But in 2 ABY, a reorganization of the army took place, as the Confederacy began to arm itself for the war against the Drillarians, and in 6 ABY the Regular Army consisted of more than a million troops, organized into two-hundred infantry brigades, twenty armoured brigades, ten artillery regiments, and two special forces regiments.

Recent Years
When the Confederacy began to expand around 11 ABY, the army was reorganized again, and by the end of the year the Regular Army consisted of well over two million troops, organized into one-hundred infantry divisions, ten armoured divisions, ten artillery brigades, and 4 special forces brigades.

The size of the army topped in early 14 ABY during the Grey Worlds Conflict. A total of five army groups - the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth and Ninth - totalling over five-hundred-thousand troops, were raised specifically for the campaign, bringing the total strength of the Regular Army up to nearly three million troops.

The current Confederate Army
Today, only five army groups are still active, the rest having been deactivated since the end of the Grey Worlds Conflict. The active personnel numbers nearly one million, organized into 50 divisions.
