The '''Graal Military Community''', shortly referred to as '''GMC''', is the unofficial, but widely used term for the community of guilds in GraalOnline Classic and, to some extent, GraalOnline Ol' West that participate in highly organized military roleplay.

''Read more at [[The Royal Guard]]''
The beginning of the military community as we know it today is the founding of the Royal Guard in Summer of 2011. Some of the events of this era are still questionable to historians due to an abundance of misinformation on the topic, however it is well-known that Harau Bacsey was the King of the guild, with Auel as the Captain of the Royal Guard. Auel would come to overthrow Harau and take total control of the guild, before eventually disappearing for some time, leading to the death of the guild. From there, Auel began to explore other ideas for guilds. He forged an alliance between three large towering guilds at the time: AGK, NAL, and Rice Kings. It was known as "The Alliance." This venture did not last very long due to lack of cooperation and central authority. Auel then went on to create Krung Thep, another shadowy part of the community's history. Auel operated the two accounts that led the guild, Cae and Cael. Auel would then go on to create a second Royal Guard, with the same arrangement as the first, with Harau as King, and Auel as Captain of the Guard. This would only last for a few months before ultimately facing the same fate as the first Royal Guard, with Harau being deposed by Auel. ▼

== Name ==
The community used to be called as "military guilds" collectively back in its early stages. The first known addition of the word "Graal" to their collective name was when the old wiki, hosted with FANDOM, was created as the "Graal Military Wiki", which is still the official name of the [[Graal Military Wiki|Wiki Project]]. There was no real terminology used to refer to military guilds during this time.
In 2016, [[Nyl|Mevarus]] (later known as Nyl), alongside Drazius and later [[Macbeth]], created the first Discord server for the community, only a few months earlier than [[Paynius Valeria|Paynius]]' news server. The server was named "Graal Military Community", and for a long time, the term Graal Military Community, and the acronym GMC, almost exclusively referred to their Discord server.
When the server was handed off to Macbeth and Mevarus' later disappearance, the server died, which dispersed the community for some time. Graal Military Community would then later gradually become the term used to refer to the whole community by late [[Guilds and Leaders of 2017|2017]]. By [[Guilds and Leaders of 2018|2018]], the term became the unofficial, but universally-accepted name of the military community.
