The Cristorian Navy is the naval branch of the Cristorian Defense Force. Originally intended soley for ceremonial purposes; the Cristorian Navy has since obtained seaworthy vessels[1]and has become an active component in other peacetime tasks such as carriers for the Cristorian Post Office or transportation of goods.

History

The Cristorian Navy was originally formed in 2021. After the dissolution of the Empire of Cristoria the roles of the navy were dissolved until 2022 by popular willingness of the House of Commons during the Kingdom of Cristoria.

The Navy acquired the Moonstone in March of 2021 from Cristorian Lines, making her the first naval ship in the Cristorian Navy.

The Navy then acquired Moonstone's sister ship, the New Toledo in April of 2022 to carry out training missions for the nations in SNOP[2] and to train soldiers in the Cristorian Army.

In June of 2022, the Cristorian Navy had its first accident, that being the New Toledo running aground after hitting a rock during a SNOP exercise off of Maumee Bay. In the same month, it was found that the Moonstone had severe hull damage after not being maintained properly and checked up on. The ships will be repaired in 2024-2025, according to the Cristorian Cristorian Parliament in 2022 and eventually the Cristorian Congress in 2023.

Following the collapse of the Cristorian Kingdom, the Republic of Cristoria inherented the previous Royal Cristorian Navy and it's ships and was renamed to the Cristorian Navy.

As of 2024, no active ships are in the Navy, as all of them are tied up and are awaiting repairs and to be repainted.
