The Unicanian Army is the main land warfare branch of the Armed Forces of Unicania. The modern Unicanian Army was founded by the Republic of Unicania in 1937, after the conclusion of the Unicanian Civil War.
The Unicanian Army is primarily tasked with defending the territory of Unicania and its allies, and supporting the local government (both nationally and internationally) in law enforcement, disaster relief and humanitarian aid missions.

Formation
Structure
The Unicanian Army is commanded by the Chief of the Army, who's primary responsibility is overseeing Army Command. Like their equivalents in the Unicanian Navy and the Unicanian Air Force, the chief of the army is subordinate to the Chief of the Armed Forces, is a member of the Armed Forces Command, and sits on the Federal Military Council.
The Army Command is located in Olisau, Unicania. It oversees the army during peacetime operations such as, the maintaining and expanding the capabilities of the army, the protection of Unicania's territory, the training of enlisted personnel and necessary support staff, and providing the Armed Forces Command with the equipment and personnel necessary to carry out combat operations. The army can also be deployed for law enforcement, disaster relief, humanitarian aid, and other related missions, both within Guerra Height's borders and internationally.
