Salvators

The Salvators are an elite military group that make up the majority of the Briecian army and air force. Based out of Spareen, the Salvators were originally a specialized military force that took control of the military when the country of Briece was first formed.

Although the Salvators have pledged themselves toward the protection of Briece, they are considered a separate entity from the public and political domain and are not beholden to the Supreme, but instead to the Strategos of Briece.

Strategos of Briece
The Strategos of Briece is the Commander of the Salvators, and the top military general of the Briecian army and air force. Considered independent from the Supreme and the Grand Houses of the Palazzi, the Strategos pledges to defend Briece from internal and external enemies. Unlike the Supreme, the Strategos is elected only by the Salvators and neither the general public nor the Palazzi have any say in his appointment.

Like the Supreme, the Strategos rules for life and can only be relieved of his position if charged guilty of a crime by the Serene of Justice and the board of Justicas.

The Strategos rules from the Bassilea on the Victorious Coast.

Polikleos
The law of the Salvator. The word Polikleos refers to the actual parchment document drafted in the days of the Valinium Empire when the Salvators were Briecian mercenaries. The Polikleos is now held in glass and frame in the Strategos' Bassilea on the Victorious Coast.

The Polikleos outlines the hierarchy, beliefs, military structure, unit structure, along with a variety of other traditions, superstitions, and histories.

Navy
As of the Briece-Dorminia Cordial Pact, the Salvators were forced to disband their navy by Palazzi politicians. This has been added as an addendum to the Polikleos, a fact that many Sparenese take issue with and consider it as another act of unwanted Dorminian influence.
