The Sovereign Guard
May Assian Live Forever



The Sovereign Guard can trace their history back to the first few rulers of the two-thousand-year Assian Dynasty, but it wasn't until the reign of Mendasha Assian (1310 to 1380) when the Sovereign Guard became the militant branch of the Inshallah, combining with the newly formed Inshallah Intelligence agency and the domestic law enforcement force al-Aqiba. The Sovereign Guard consists of four primary branches: Army, Air Force, Navy, and Royal Guard. The Army, Air Force and Navy forces are self-explanatory, and the Royal Guard are elite soldiers hand-picked by the Assian family to serve as personal bodyguards and Palace guards. The Sayeret is a classified counter-terrorism branch separate from the rest of the Sovereign Guard, but their rank system is the same as the Army (along with the uniforms with some exceptions, such as undercover or black ops).

Uniforms

-- SG Army --
The dress uniform is dominately light tan in color, with a dark brown stripe along opposing sides of the outer leggings. The shirt and outer jacket have dark brown shoulders that start on the collar seam to the top of the sleeve. The rank patches are only allowed on the top portion of the sleeves, and this applies to both dress and camo styles. The camo pants and jacket are inspired by the CMF style of camo pattern, with a blend of light tan and brown colors, although the shirt is usually light grey or black. The black beret is standard issue for all enlisted personnel ranked 01-12, and a more decorated light tan beret for ranks 13 through 17.
 
-- SG Royal Guard --
Only the dress uniform exists for the Royal Guard, dominately maroon-colored with a light tan stripe along the opposing sides of the outer leggings. Because they are hand-picked by the royal family, they technically have no rank, and only in certain cases will they have coexisting jurisdictions with the other forces. They are the only soldiers officially trained to use the scimitar, and it is standard issue. The dark-red beret is standard issued head wear.

-- SG Air Force --
The dress uniform is dark green with a black stripe along the outer leggings. While personnel with ranks 01-13 have their insignias in the form of patches sewn to their sleeves, ranks 14-17 have insignia button pins on the collars of their dress uniforms. All ranks have standard issue camo uniforms, but the patterns are slightly designed differently from the Army camo, with dark green and blue blended together. Issued head wear are dark blue berets for all ranks.

-- SG Navy --
Enlisted personnel are issued dark blue slacks and jackets with white undershirts, while officers have the same basic colors but in a more formal dress style. For enlisted, the standard headgear are dark green cloth caps, and peaked black hats for officers. The rank insignias are only in the form of decorative gold or silver pins, attached to the collars. No camo version exists for naval personnel.
