Radzgau Strategic Services International (formerly Radzgau's Private Army) is a multinational corporation primarily spanning worldwide across all three continents within the world. It is currently split into various departments and subsidiary groups, of which serve different purposes: The Armed Component, the Security Service, the Sales and Trade Department, the Intelligence Service, Circus Radzgau, the Research and Development Department, and Burger Town. As of 2522, the RPA is the largest mercenary group in the entirety of Oikia.
History
Initial Years: Radzgau's Commandership (2140-???)
In the year 2140, Radzgau's Private Army would be founded under the leadership of Karsten Radzgau, a veteran who wanted to serve the Tempestian Empire even after his military service. Initially, it was composed of mostly Skavens, along with the few humans within Tempest, working side-by-side in order to help build a small training center outside the Capital. Recruitment primarily spread through the word of mouth, and within 7 years of its founding, had grown to around 500 men. Finances were initially little, with little government support, so they primarily built up the RPA's first center by themselves while hiring themselves out to providing security and as mercenaries to help with the public's daily needs.
An Unproven Army: Nehraus' Leadership (2217-???)
By the time the year 2217 came about, the RPA had expanded throughout the entirety of the Empire of Tempest as they had grown to 1,500 men. During this time, their equipment would be modernized, swapping out arquebuses to muskets in order to continue to be combat-effective when the time came. With the death of Karsten Radzgau, Detlav Nehraus would be selected to take up his place in lieu of the Executive Board acting as placeholder. Under his administration, the additional construction of recruitment centers and training centers would be accelerated as the Empire of Tempest prepared to go to war with its southern neighbors. The Mobile Medical Corps would also be established at this time to provide medical aid to its mercenaries on the frontlines. Although it had much to gain from support one side or another during the peasant rebellions, the RPA stood by as it wasn't prepared for direct engagement. After the Tempestian Empire lost in its war in the battle of Uibri (with RPA participation), the RPA established itself as an independent organization separate from the Tempestian government.
The First Glory Years: Falkenrecht's Leadership (2272-2326)
With the resignation of Nehraus for health reasons, Violetta Falkenrecht would take command as the third Supreme Commander of the RPA in the year 2272. Under her command, the RPA would begin to stabilize its finances post-war as well as expand RPA services outside of the Tempestian Empire under the Falkenrecht Doctrine. Within Tempest, they were hired to begin conducting explorations within its jungles in order to find resources. In the year 2284, the entirety of the RPA would expand once more to over 8,000 troops as it began travelling south into Lothernian-puppeted Inmero in order to begin recruiting Inmerics and Sinkajans into its army in preparation to aid Lothern in its regional conquests. Linking up with the main Lothernian army, it distinguished itself in combat in the Atlantian campaign as Falkenrecht conducted a 4-pronged offensive to drive Ionaean troops to the sea. By the end of the First Belegar War, the RPA had grown to over 57,000 troops, having conducted extensive recruitment from countries across Alaxia.
In 2301, the RPA would be contracted by the 3rd Order under Yelizaveta to clear out the Eastern Wastes of bandits as part of a deal in exchange for acquiring modern equipment. This contract would evolve into a humanitarian mission as instead of bandits being discovered, that there were only Daevites struggling to survive in the wasteland. After negotiations between the remaining Daevites and RPA leadership, the RPA would come to take approximately 20,000 Daevites in to resettle them elsewhere. Some of these Daevites would also come to join the RPA's ranks.
In 2307, the RPA would again be contracted by the 3rd Order as part of a coalition against Suton, with which it performed adequately.
Viva El Mercenario: Von Plettenborch's Leadership (2330-???)
His leadership began with a remarkable uptick in recruitment, new recruitment mostly from mercenaries hired within the Republic Stahlzustand. His leadership afterward was immediately tested in the final stages of the Belegar Wars, as the RPA was sent into Azyeri as part of a contract with the Lothernians in combatting a joint army formed between the Azyeri and Fazarians. This would prove to be a fatal error, as in a battle between giants that the RPA failed dramatically in an offensive on the left flank and would be quickly routed. By the end of the battle, the RPA would come to lose about half of its army (approx. 65,000 mercenaries).
More distinct details between 2338 and 2394 has been lost to time, primarily as a result of a fire in the RSSI's headquarters in Ruskvia. It is known, however, that von Plettenborch soon afterwards resigned while the RPA went into state of hiatus with regards to its private army activities and committed to damage control. During this period, the Executive Board took over private security and private military operations.
An Oikian Pheonix: Kuropatkov's Leadership (2400-2420)
something
In the year 2400, the RPA intervened within the 3rd Order's 1st Civil War on the side of Lyamin's 4th Order. Much of their support came in the form of weapons, munitions, food rations, and medical equipment shipments, though a small contingent of RPA intervened in the civil war to also directly distribute them, conduct humanitarian operations, and light military operations in the form of artillery fire support. Of note, however, the small-scale operations in light of the country-wide civil war failed to meaningly have an effect in mitigating widespread death and destruction. This contingent would later on temporarily lose contact with the RPA High Command with the defeat of the 4th Order against the 3rd Order, however they were able to retreat in an orderly manner along the Kiof River back into Suton without incident.
The same year, Kuropatkov also attended Howard Wilhelm's funeral along with other Executive Board members. They were known to be good friends, both in business and in personal friendship.
A number of quality of life reforms were made on part of the RPA in 2400 as well, installing music jukeboxes and theaters with motion pictures at all facilities run by the RPA in order to help provide mercenaries access to entertainment no matter what country they were in. The Mobile Medical Corps were also strengthened after a deal with the Ruskvy Union in obtaining vaccines as well as a boost in medical personnel after a recent recruitment drive.
In 2401, Kuropatkov sent a delegate to attend Yelizaveta's funeral despite the now strained relationship between the RPA and the 3rd Order.
In 2404, the RPA opened up its second headquarters in Kaer Valor after a series of negotiations with the Kiavalarian government over the course of 2 years.
In 2408, the RPA opened its Sales and Trading Component as a means of laundering money through posing as a stock brokerage firm. While legitimized through the hiring of stock analysts as the core of the component, profits were mostly funneled straight into funding the mercenary group.
The same year, the RPA negotiated investments in Yuvani's industries in exchange for propaganda distribution despite conflicting ideologies of both parties, of which were carried out without issue.
In 2409, the naval arm of the RPA was formed (named Radzgau's Private Navy) after a negotiated deal with the Ruskvy Union, comprising of 1 pre-dreadnought battleship, 1 light cruiser, and 2 torpedo gunboats. This would later be bolstered with additional ships manufactured by Ceironia, comprising of an additional 15 destroyers and 9 cruisers.
In the outbreak of the Great War in 2409, the RPA refrained from intervening in the war in a bid to preserve its built-up global network of private security and military purposes. The RPA was also contracted within the first year to help train the Kingdom of Karkuss' troops in exchange for corporate expansion into the country. Also of note was a close call during the Battle of Ruskvia in the Ruskvy Front, where the RPA's headquarters was spared after brief negotiations with local Ceironian forces.
In the fall of 2409 into 2410, the RPA sent a small team to support a Vamu research team in researching Basalites in Southeastern Alaxia, mostly providing support in the form of logistics.

RSSI Executive Board
The RSSI Executive Board is a Board of Directors that manages all affairs of the primary mercenary group and security service as well as its subsidiary "projects". Contrary to most other boards, major shareholders are primarily not included in the Executive Board, though their needs are addressed through ad hoc committees held periodically.
