The Imperial Ruthene Navy (Βασιλικόν Ναυτικόν, Vasilikón Naftikón, abbreviated VP) is the naval force of Ruthenia, part of the Ruthene Armed Forces. The modern Ruthene navy has its roots in the naval forces of various Agionite Islands, which fought in the Enosis.
The total displacement of all the navy's vessels is approximately 150,000 tons.
The Ruthene Navy's emblem consists of an anchor in front of a crossed Christian cross and trident, with the cross symbolizing Greek Orthodoxy, and the trident symbolizing Poseidon, the god of the sea in Greek mythology. Pericles' words are written across the top of the emblem.
