Template:UnderConstruction Template:Branch-RHN The Royal Hapan Navy (RHN) (sometimes also called Royal Navy of the Hapes Consortium or Consortium Navy) is the second oldest and most senior service of the Royal Hapan Armed Forces. It is considered the third most powerful naval force of the galaxy, but is restricted to the Hapes Cluster for the most part and its ships are rarely seen outside the Hapan borders due to traditional isolationism.

It was established in the form of the Royal Hapan Space Fleet during the early days of the Nele'serin dynasty and consisted mostly of former Lorell Raider vessels limited mostly to transporting cargo and passengers between the few colonies that made up the Hapes Consortium at the time. As the Consortium expanded within the Hapes Cluster, the Space Fleet was also expanded as a professional military force guarding the borders of the government. It became the Royal Hapan Navy in 716 during the Tini'duran dynasty but the term was used to describe both the Consortium Navy and Noble Navy. The two naval branches co-operated in providing security for Hapan systems and spacelanes. Since the Hapan civil war and the abolishment of a feudal governing system, the entire Royal Hapan Navy has been reformed and placed under the jurisdiction of the Sovereign.

Since the Hapes Consortium re-established diplomatic relations with foreign governments and parties, the Royal Hapan Navy has been involved in a few foreign operations and has escorted the Sovereign on good-will tours in other sectors of the galaxy.

History

Template:Portal-HapesAF For a more detailed history on the naval forces prior to the Phoenix Age, see History of the Hapes Consortium's naval forces, Royal Hapan Navy during the Age of Queen-Mothers and Hapes Consortium's naval forces during the Hapan civil war.

King Andrew was quick to re-establish the Royal Hapan Navy after his coronation, placing it under the command of one of the former Phoenix Movement commanders, Jacevel Canler who was the first person to reach the rank of Grand Admiral. The Phoenix Movement had captured and built a number of vessels at the seized Olanji/Charubah yards, but their military force was not large enough to keep the peace in the entire Hapes Cluster even after other parties had surrendered or been conquered. Part of the peace agreement between the Phoenix Movement and the Draconian Union involved the donation of most Draconian ships to the newly unified Royal Hapan Navy as long as no members of the Draconian military were put on trial for warcrimes.

Canler introduced a system which allowed for both commoners and nobility to achieve ranks without bias within the navy. This was not especially popular with the noble houses, but they reluctantly accepted it and realized that the time for petty differences were over. This timeperiod saw the introduction of the Nova Battle Cruiser as the new mainstay of the navy in 4011 and the new monarch opened some diplomatic relations with the outside galaxy in order to bring in other types of ship, such as the Dreadnaught Heavy Cruiser. The older Quasar Battle Cruisers were decommissioned shortly thereafter.

Grand Admiral Canler was eventually killed in a skirmish in the Transitory Mists in 4014 which led to the appointment of young Jessy James as the new naval commander. Other notable officers who rose through the ranks during this timeperiod were Sirius Threestars, Juthan Karrde, Sala Mander and Alexander Tylger. Jessy James achieved the rank of Grand Admiral in 4020 and was eventually appointed as King Andrew's heir in 4025.

After King James assumed the throne in the august 4027, the Royal Hapan Navy came under the command of Admiral Sirius Threestars. Threestars was one of King James' oldest advisors and executive officer with an endless loyalty to the Hapan throne and also refused to take part in Grand General Pez Harr's attempted military revolt.

Add some more shit here.

In june 4031, the remnants of Olanji/Charubah were purchased from Draconian Shareholder Commitee by the Hapan Government and merged with the Royal Family owned Hapan Consortium under the new name Olanji Corporation. The government poured a significant amount of money in to rebuilding new shipyard complexes around Hapes Prime, but also Lorell, Nigel, Olanji and Charubah which has made production of Hapan ships a great deal easier. The Royal Hapan Navy now enjoys a steady supply of warships and starfighters for its fleets.
