From their inception prior to the independence of South Ranomia, the originally named the Dominion Defence Force was an unofficial organization in the Dominion of South Ranomia that pushed for Home Rule and challenged the legitimacy of the Saessish Army stationed in the colony. The de facto leader of the DDF was general Morgan Shearing, a former Saessish naval captain who ran the organization until 1912, when he was invited to the Baverstock Conference. Under the conference treaty, the Defence Force was declared the official military force of the newly independent South Ranomia, linking with the government thereafter. Shearing would afterwards serve as the first chief-of-staff of the Defence Force from 1912 to 1918, when he would retire. Since then, the Defence Force has been widely active in conflicts across the world, from its involvement in the Great War,, to the Homeland Wars. South Ranomia's involvement in most of these conflicts allow it to influence regional affairs in its favor, and establish itself as a leading military & economic power in south Ozara.
