Active army

Active army is a part of the military that can move across its own, opponent, or allied regions to participate in battles. Active army is equally good both at attack and defense, but not capable of maintaining order in the regions. The use of the active army for suppression of internal riots is possible, but involves a number of undesirable effects.

Gameplay Tips

 * The number of garrisons of a large state is distributed throughout the country. To quickly repel the enemy's attack you can transfer part of the garrisons to the active army, in order to concentrate the maximum combat power of the country.
 * During the war it is worth weighing the risks. Reducing garrisons may lead to riots or uprisings, but it will win the war.
 * An active army protects the country from an external enemy but does not save it from an internal one.
 * A country with powerful allies can afford not to have a strong active army and focus on maintaining public order.
