The Freethinker Royal Navy is the oldest and arguably the most powerful component of the Freethinker Royal Armed Forces. The service is tasked with the defence of the Freethinker Commonwealth and its territorial waters and with providing, in the modern tech era, the main force projection power of the Freethinker Government in international affairs.
History
The naval forces of The Freethinker Commonwealth were known as the Freethinker Colonial Navy before they became a autonomous dominion of the Midlonian Empire in 1799.
Founded in 1660 with the purchase of the ex-Midlonian Navy Sloop Adventure, the force had grown to twelve ships by the time of the 'War Of The Mainland', where, under the command of Sir John Barham, it scored several victories against the numerically superior Knootian navy in the area. A total of twenty enemy ships were destroyed for the loss of four Colonial vessels, and the part the force played in the war is seen as vital to the eventual English victory. Several captured spanish ships were also added to the ranks of the fleet, meaning a net gain in terms of tonnage because of the conflict.
In the aftermath of the war, the service was seen as vital to protecting the coastlines and trade routes of the Mainland, and thus the late Sevententh to the Eighteenth century saw an exponential expansion of the force. Indeed, by the time of the offical name change at the beginning of the Nineteenth Century, over fifty ships, including four seventy-gun Man o' Wars, had been commissioned into the service.
The service officially became the Freethinker Royal Navy in the spring of 1800.
