Military of the interGalactic Empire of Trekylon
The military of Trekylon came about as the result of aggression against it from some Nations who had formed a faction for world domination. Ground-based and air-based units came about first, then with the launch into space, a space-based fleet was developed. As a member of the United Nations, Trekylon (like its predecessors, Treksylvania and Holy Trek) has forsworn using its military for aggression, yet it must sometimes go to war to defend its borders, its independence, and the integrity of its allies. Now, within the Dual Monarchy of Trekylon-Inuyashia, the need for a strong military force is more imperative than ever, due to fear that the Dual Monarchy will become too powerful.
The recruitment age for Trekylon is 21 years old for men and 23 for women. Conscription a.k.a. the draft is not applied except in cases where the territorial integrity of the empire is threatened directly, such as when Yee & Gotham Republics illegally occupied the Caribbean island districts prior to the 2nd Yee (or Yee-Texahoma) War. As was the policy in the old United States, single children families are exempt from conscription as it would risk terminating a family line. In families where there are two or more children, the eldest child is conscripted. Should a war continue, the second child is allowed to voluntarily join the Imperial Military Force.
Imperial Military Force
The Imperial Military Force or IMF, consists of all the land, sea, and air units of Trekylon. The home base for the IMF is located near Enterprise, at Fort Picard, though they are also based in various locations in Trekylon, the belief in the old saying being "never put all your eggs in one basket". Fort Picard has become the 'Fort Benning of Trekylon' because of the multitude of airfields, barracks, and tank yards. The space-based units of Trekylon are classed in a different category from the IMF, but both are controlled by the Ministry of War and the emperor.
The colonies also house the IMF, as they have grown in both population size, and strategic importance to the home-nation. In cases where a Native population is also present, Native levies are also employed by the IMF to further defend the colony.
