National Republican Army
The National Republican Army (Italian: Esercito Nazionale Repubblicano; abbreviated ENR), colloquially known as the Army of the North (Italian: Esercito del Nord) was the army of the Italian Social Republic (Italian: Repubblica Sociale Italiana, or RSI) from 1943 to 1945, fighting on the side of Nazi Germany during World War II. The National Republican Army was officially formed on 28 October 1943 by merging the former Royal Italian Army (Regio Esercito) units that were still loyal to fascist dictator Benito Mussolini and Italian pro-fascist units raised by the Germans after the occupation of Italy. By the end of the war, the National Republican Army collapsed due to the Allied offensive along with the general insurrection by the Italian Resistance in northern Italy. On 2 May 1945, the remaining units surrendered following the German capitulation in Italy.
