Marina Genjium

The Marina Genjium, sometimes known as the Genji Imperial Navy is the naval and the largest military branch of the New Empire of Japan. The Navy went under major refinements to keep it's edge over the navies of other countries.

Culture
The Imperial Japanese Navy is depicted as the most sophisticated when compared to the Army. Naval officers believe that Naval warfare is not battle between man and man, a battle between ship and ship with the perils of space as their common enemy. As a result, the Imperial Japanese Army accuse the Navy of being ranked with cowards that refuse to even hold a gun at the enemy, point-blanc range.

The Navy's tradition includes the consumption of curry every Friday. This is practiced to make sailors that have lost their sense of time to remember that the day is a Friday.

Rikusenrentai
The Genji Imperial Navy has included Landing Forces in their wing as their marine troops. The Landing Forces were the result of the rivalry between the Army and the Navy, each trying to be self-reliant from the other. The Landing Forces of the Navy are meant for offensive landing, boarding and planetfall operations. The Landing Forces Regiments use the same equipment as the Army but are smaller in numbers.

Grand Alliance War
The Marina Third Fleet has combated Grand Alliance Member-Nation the Turian Hierarchy in the Battle of Palaven. The Navy has secured a victory with large losses. The Third Fleet targeted the dreadnought as a priority but the tenacious Turians have shown them that damage can still be caused without dreadnoughts. Japanese starfighters engaged Turian fighters in orbit of Menae, Palaven's largest moon and the advanced starfighter of Japan has allowed superiority. The victory of Palaven gave the opportunity to study and integrate formidable Turian cruisers in the Marina's arsenal.
