History
Leocardia, starting out, had a huge history in NationStates, dating back to the era of MagicChina's godmoding reign to the formation of WMNK Coalition. Although due to inactivity, Leocardia was once again refounded.
It dated back in the era of the Dark Ages. Leocardia was a newly born civilization, with a balance of defensive, as well as social equality. Diverse cultures collided and created hostile tribes. When imperialists came, the Leocardians finally figured that they can repel invaders by working together. Teaching each other their war tactics in the diverse environments of Leocardia. Soon, with the inventions of modern guns, Leocardian transformed their army into one of the largest in NationStates history.
Leocardia's first official appearance was in Pythogria's Makoki Isles expeditionary, when President Jason Batista sent a pack of Leocardian Royal Navy force into the Isles to claim its territory. At the same time, Pythogria and other countries in Makoki Isles were fighting Robistius. Leocardia fought against particularily Pythogrian forces, and the battle ended over a treaty.
A similiar battle with Pythogria happened a few years later. Fights broke out and tensions rose when Leocardia invaded Pythogria. Leocardian allies and Pythogrian allies battled heavily at both sides, each losing more than a million soldiers from each side, Pythogria was struck and went inactive. Though the war was at its cliffhanger, Leocardia declared victory with no enemy.
Over a series of time, Leocardia became inactive also, and when time came back for Leocardia, it was time for the overthrow of President Jason Batista. Revolutionary armies, as well as private, marched into the capital city of Leocardia, KiK City, and massacred 22,000 people. Leocardia's military forces quelled the violence and left everything back to normal. Jason managed to keep control of Leocardia, and the Leocardian Army wiped out the private forces, though many still remain and are called "terrorists".
Within another few years, Leocardia was struck by another civil war. Revolutionary Warriors, naming themselves Rekustans, declared war on the Leocardian Communist Government. With Mationbuds aiding the rebels, casualties for Leocardia escalated. The situation began growing to nowhere. Mationbuds' Imperial Navy was present, but thanks to The Northern Baltic and Lord Sumguy's aids, Leocardia was able to repel against the Imperial forces. Meanwhile, in the civil war, an agreement had been reached with Rekustan rebels and Leocardian officials, ending the war in an agreement. Mationbuds quickly retreated and Leocardia had regained control.
Months later, an increased opposition of Socialism and Communism arised. Increased movements to eliminate the ideologies were moving strong, and Leocardia was threatened. The PeoplesFreedom was one of the nations, which fights broke out. Leocardia was the aggressor, aiding North Calaveras while they were being invaded by ThePeoplesFreedom. Another great war struck, and now it was ThePeoplesFreedom and allies at war with Leocardia and allies. Lets just say it got nasty.
Military Background
In the beginning of time, Leocardia had advanced rapidly in terms of technological weaponry as well as population. Researchers say that Leocardia had once had an army of 50 million in 1400 BC. It was then, Leocardia begun to focus on national leadership and teamwork that made it slouch behind with the world. When imperialists came to conquer the vast lands of Leocardia, the hostile tribes in Leocardia knew they had to act quick before it was too late. They responded to rapid, immediate training; sharing multiple terrain war tactics; and different types of weapons each tribe had created. With this diversity, Leocardia was able to expel the imperialist and claim its independence.
Soon, Leocardia focused on technological advances, now that hostile tribes learned to cope with each other peacefully. Year by year, technology grew and soon toppled over into the international community.
When it became the superdreadnaught era, it was Leocardia's main focus to develop their own superdreadnaught. However, this required Leocardia years of research and technological advances to reach the status of developing their own. It took Leocardia years to gain the technology to support, and even more years to develop their first SD. At the first couple makes, Leocardia's navy had dropped in rankings with the modern world. The ships were no match against modern ships in their class. This discovery drove Leocardia to produce another highly developed superdreadnaught. Within more years, the new Juki SD had finally touched sea. The newest guns were considerably the most powerful, and speed was the factors.
It was then another incident had arrived that sparked Leocardian actions... tbc

With a blend, the LAF is able to combine these three elements and become a leading superpower in the airforce industry. The LAF currently is producing massively in its LAF-47A4 multirole, air-superiority fighter, which is considerably a 5.5th generation fighter.
