The Risevan Royal Navy, known in Mirselec as Risevan Koraide Nusvair, is the naval arm of the Risevan Royal Armed Forces.

The naval history of Risevne can be traced back to the Mirselani raids of the first and second centuries DN; the modern Royal Navy of Risevne, however, dates back to the First Constitution when the two arms of the military were first placed under the control of the monarch and constitution as standing forces. Given Risevne's nature as an island nation the Navy became the senior arm, and even now it is known as the Senior Service (Kresaime Anaos).

The navy played a hugely important role in all four of the Global Wars in which Risevne participated, and over the course of these wars it grew into one of the premier navies in the world. This trend continued through the 20th century, and even as the Risevan Royal Army gradually shrank in size the growth of the navy continued. By the 2010s it was the largest navy in the world, as well as one of the most advanced, and is a full-fledged blue-water force.
