The Sedunnic Navy (Sedunnic: Sedunnō Seiftasstlē) is the naval warfare branch of the Sedunnic Armed Forces. Founded in 121 BC, it is one of the oldest continuously serving navies in the world and the second oldest branch of the Sedunnic Armed Forces after the army. It started as a coastal defence force and transformed into a global force during the age of discovery and age of sail. Through the 17th and 19th centuries it competed with traditional maritime powers such as Austral, Peonic and Karnetvorian among others for maritime supremacy, specialising in the protection of trade routes and escort. During the 20th century following the rapid spread of industrialisation, many other nations caught up on the traditional maritime powers, greatly expanding their navies. During the Great War, in which the Sedunnic Navy participated in numerous engagements, Sedunn still had among the largest navies in the world. However, during the latter half of the Cold War it was surpassed numerically by many navies. The modern Sedunnic Navy focuses on expeditionary warfare and is considered among the world's premier blue-water navies.
