Lauchenoirian Coup
#12

Lauchenoiria's military is not particularly large, as the previous few governments have been pretty pacifist. When Chaher grabbed power, he diverted a lot of funding to the military, but in such a short timescale that won't have done much. Hence why he's relying on foreign assistance despite his xenophobic tendencies. Most military personnel haven't seen much active duty apart from the navy fighting pirates and some of the older generation taking part in the Kerlian civil war.

The majority of the military, especially those in high ranks, will be loyal to Chaher, especially after the extra funding and the impeachment vote. In any conflict, there would be sabotage from within the ranks from anti-Chaher individuals, but expect 90% of the military to be for Chaher. He will have culled anyone high ranking that he thinks would betray him by this point.

Technologically, the military is about average with other nations, as research was funded even throughout the pacifist governments. Lauchenoiria has no nuclear weapons or any kind of WMDs. The first Communist administration began a nuclear program but it was dismantled before it got anywhere. The previous governments have relied on diplomacy rather than strength.

Kerlile, my puppet and Chaher's ally, on the other hand, has a large military. Kerlile is a matriarchal dictatorship, where men are treated in some respects like women were in the late 19th/early 20th century irl. They had a massive civil war in the 90s as pro-democracy and equality elements tried to overthrow the government. The pro-democracy side lost the war, and the government clamped down even more. However, if Chaher betrays them even slightly, they will turn on him in an instant, and he doesn't plan to give them everything he's promised.
