The Questarian Royal Navy is the largest branch of the Questarian Armed Forces, and also the best funded. The QRN performs many tasks throughout the Commonwealth, and is essential in public morale and securing the assets and futures of the United Kingdom. The QRN is widely recognised as one of the most powerful navies in the world, and although it has recently suffered a defeat at Gibraltar against MassPwnage and Banduria, public support for the Royal Navy, and military funding in general, has never been higher.

The QRN operates a dynamic order of battle. There are eighteen Battlegroups, and each Battlegroup operates off a different port (although not neccessarily different cities)- four abroad and fourteen at home. In small cases, forces may be detached from a Battlegroup and some will stay at home: in operations that warrant large force, the entire group will be deployed.
