Girias List

List of all the ships in the Imperial navy created by Girias. The list has been in print for the past 20 years. It was started by Girias who was a civil servant for the Otorveia government. He took an interest in the navy which he was helping monitor and started keeping a list of all the ships as they were being built, repaired, and so on. Word started to get out about his list, and it became popular enough with enough requests from naval officers and eventually, even an admiral, that he took to publishing his list. This turned into a section of the Imperial Journal for the Armed Forces. Every year, it was collected into a book. It served as the most accurate collection of information about the state of the vessels in the fleet. Girias quit his civil servant job when the journal hired him on full time to research and produce his list. The list follows a predictable format listing out ships by fleet, size, and class. It covers all ships from the ones being built through to being decomissioned or destroyed. The only restriction is that Girias can't list ships that have been ordered but not started being built for concerns that enemy nations may obtain that information. With Girias getting older, there are concerns about what will happen once he retires and who will take over. The journal is looking at finding more people to assist Girias.
