She is less popular outside of population centers.

-  ​*Air Forces +  *<color #7092be>Cascadium Surface Force (CSF)</​color>​\\ The main planetary surface force (hence its name), it is primarily made up of self contained combined force formations that employ armored and mechanized ​forces ​with attached organic air and VTOL assets. There are various '​leg' ​and light mechanized formations for both specialized organic attachments and as installation security for the organization'​s various surface complexes. They are professional full time volunteer army made up of both local residents who use it as a career and offworld individuals with a military or security past seeking the various incentives ​to join once they'​ve settled on the colony world. The CSF is intended to be the primary surface combat force but in certain situations it can interface with the CTRDF to both replace losses ​or bring a larger force to bare on a hostile invading group.  
-    ​*<color #7092be>//Gali Air Corps//</​color>​\\ The Gali air forces are all under one general command ​and operate ​variety ​of craft from fixed wing monoplanes of recent manufacture (from just before ​to after WWII in technology) ​to various refurbished ancient craft or merely shells built around ancient tech. Most of their heavier than air large scale airships are of the latter sort.  + 
-    *<color #7092be>//Gali Jump Corps//</​color>​\\ An offshoot ​of the above that serves as sort of one part '​air'​ marine corps and one part airborne shock troops mostly for use in conjunction with their airshipsWell trained but lightly equipped, they are mostly ​employed ​for rapid assaults important strategic points+  ​*<color #7092be>Cascadium Aerospace Combat Group (CACG)</​color>​\\ An aerospace and orbital defense branch ​of the armed forces, they operate from handful ​of complexes spread across the surfaceThey control most of the significant surface to orbit defensive systems including laserssurface to orbit missiles, and railgun systems. Additionally ​they operate several squadrons of surface to orbit interceptors that can also be employed ​in air dominance or air to surface actions 
-  ​*Land Forces + 
-    ​*<color #7092be>//Gali Ground Corps//</​color>​\\ ​They feature a rather large but stretched ​(operating in various theaters across half the continentground ​forcethird of which is mechanized in some aspect. Additionally most of the remaining two-thirds of their force is made up of conscripts. Like most they have both recently manufactured weapons ​and vehicles as well as a small percentage of artifact weapons ​and platforms.  +  *<color #7092be>Cascadium Territorial Reserve Defense Force (CTRDF)</​color>​\\ ​The '​citizen soldier'​ reserve of Cascadium mostly composed of young (17 to 22 year oldconscripts and semi-paid older reservists. It is intended to provide both additional manpower to the main surface defense ​force as well as readily available local combat force to rapidly address threats ​which may land on far flung portions ​of the planet. It is made up of various leg and motorized infantry, mechanized, ​and aviation formations 
-  ​*Naval Forces + 
-    ​*<color #7092be>//Gali Navy//</​color>​\\+  *<color #7092be>Cascadium Intra-System Security Forces (CISSF)</​color>​\\ ​The 'on orbit' service of Cascadium that serves as the colony'​s space security forces. They operate a handful of security cutters, several squadrons of light attack craft, and a company'​s worth of specialist troops intended for low-grav or zero grav combat operations or orbit to surface assaults.  ​

 +  *The capital is the coastal settlement of Arns City with a population of 652,000, it hosts an orbital tether tied to the main orbital port of the planet. It also features road and rail links with most of the other terrestrial settlements. 
 +  *Cascadium is a frontier colony world with a population of around ten million mostly settled around the starport/​orbital lift cities with development and infrastructure expanding around these sites.  
 +  *As stated above the planet is a frontier world who's primary output is agricultural goods, however recent years and mineral discoveries have led to a growing and healthy industry in various processed metallic ores.  
 +  *There were three waves of settlement,  
 +    *The first wave mostly composed of those oriented on self sufficient agricultural pursuits and whom settled haphazardly before the initial main cities were sited and built as a result they tend to be the most rural. (Conservatives?​) 
 +    *The second wave, mostly consisting of those looking to establish manufacturing and or the support infrastructure of gradual colony growth (and or get in the ground floor of) arrived roughly fifty years after and more than doubled the population in a decade. These are mostly responsible for the rapid growth of the planet'​s three main population centers. (City/​Suburb folks)  
 +    *The third and or on going wave, this consists of corporate or corporate hired individuals seeking to exploit the resource wealth of the planet, especially a particular mineral required for the manufacture of gates and FTL drives. Unlike the first two waves these are primarily not seeking to do long term settlement and often clash with those of the first wave over land use.

   *Eventually the above campaign is a failure and overall their armed forces suffer losses from both pouring resources into the unknown (and losing most of them) as well as seeing a general mass uprising in the occupied Lebian territories surrounding the gate artifact. With its loss to the forces from beyond the gate and the havoc they'​re causing on the Eideon side the Gali military is in a general state of retreat or is cut off and surrounded. Additionally in the east the Dumauri, seeing weakness, have begun incursions seeking to take population and territory straining the Gali forces between the three foes as the Lebian rump throws it's hat in with the newly arrived otherworlders. ​   *Eventually the above campaign is a failure and overall their armed forces suffer losses from both pouring resources into the unknown (and losing most of them) as well as seeing a general mass uprising in the occupied Lebian territories surrounding the gate artifact.

    ​*Dawn,​ Day Eleven - While scattered resistance continues the surviving highest ranking Gali officer makes contact via radio and offers terms, he is rebuffed with a unconditional surrender demand and accepts it several hours later. Three days beyond this point the area is completely pacified and all hostile troops are disarmed and moved into mass holding areas under guard. One heavy marine battalion however has pushed through the object and into the world beyond, preventing its deactivation and establishing a foothold in the world of Eideon. ​    ​*Dawn,​ Day Eleven - While scattered resistance continues the surviving highest ranking Gali officer makes contact via radio and offers terms, he is rebuffed with a unconditional surrender demand and accepts it several hours later.

   *(Pre-June 15th 2789 A.D.) CSF and UASM forces have established a kilometer wide perimeter and held the gate structure on the otherside for the better part of half a month. After one major attempt to retake the structure and the surrounding ruins (noted by the first troops through) it has been quiet aside from the occasional incursion by small hostile units. Unbeknownst to them they'​ve set off a mass uprising in the occupied territory the structure currently sits on. However high and low level observation via VTOL Drones has begun and the plan to push through into this other world has more or less been completed with the Cascadium side becoming a mass staging area.    *(Pre-June 15th 2789 A.D.)
