Urban Militias (innovation)
A proud tradition predating the Popular Revolution, over the centuries the Konijkmener have written a mammoth corpus of text relating to the proper user of pikes in warfare, as well as the proper way to muster and manage an army composed of and largely run by the commoners. Every man, and in some instances woman of sound body, is drafted on a lottery system to serve in the local militia and learn the basics of military service. Despite De Kanzerlerij's small size, the Republic has been able to produce shockingly large and well trained armies on surprisingly short notice to resist threats.
