First Fleet Commissioned in Smightower After Schulmauckland State Visit
Royal Schulmania Navy First Fleet sailors and vessels started operation in the Tenne Sea and off the eastern coast. As the navy gained form, First Fleet, consisting of two squadrons, shifted positions for deployment in the Tenne Sea. Improved wooden vessels soon began patrols of the entire sea, providing maritime support for the Western Theater of Operations. The nature of First Fleet changed further after the April 2010 State Visit from the Schulmauckland Delegation.
Schulmauckland delegates arrived with a large naval task force, to ensure a safe arrival through a potential Queensferry blockade. In high-level talks with Admiral Hestorb at Wirtyplace, Schulmauckland agreed to leave several vessels for Schulminion use for the duration of the war. In return, Schulmania will share its technology for the Ultimate Canine-Retrievable Tennis Ball. Eight ships of several classes were left behind by the departing delegation. In a strategic decision, Admiral Hestorb decided to have the ships disassembled and shipped overland to Schulmericho, where they were reassembled and attached to the new naval command center at Smightower.
Six of the ships are now deployed alongside conventional wooden vessels. Two have been left in parts so that our engineers and teams from the Office of Military Technology can reverse-engineer the technology behind the ships and create a template for a new fleet of metal-hulled vessels.

Some ships were left behind as gifts for the Royal Schulmania Navy and were disassembled and moved inland to form the core of the First Fleet, whose home port of Smightower will serve as the focus of naval security in the Tenne Sea. |

Two of the six ships left behind as prototypes for the Schulmania National Military are shown above. Metal; fabricators on Schulmanicus, in South Wirdleonia and in an undisclosed location are working on replicating the ships’ designs to fully outfit a modern fleet of naval vessels. |
