We don't have soldiers, we're defended by our many regional trading partners, though if someone did manage to reach our shores we do have just basic firepower (literally) to ward them off:

The Royal Israeli Defense Force utilizes a mixture of British, American, and German equipment and is a full standing army with the standard uniform being a modified version of the British North African and Italian Campaign uniforms.

Hi, Earth! I'm Rimarua from the Hazameian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I'll be handling this account now for Hazamaeia replacing Vice-Minister Ranuwavimranure so he can focus more on his higher duty in the ministry.

I also play badminton and will represent my nation in the next Olympic. At that time, I'll be most likely replaced by my roommate here, Arina. She works at the grocery store next to our apartment.

Why are you saying bad things about me, Rima? I am an author and I own that grocery store!
Oh look! She won the gold medal. Now I should stand her bragging about it.

This is still my eyes though.

The community's infrastructure is based on the Internet. So rather than an actual military, Internetaria has an extremely large force of intelligence security experts working to secure our sphere.
There are three things I do in the world:
1) Help other people and volunteer for the community.
2) Learn!
3) Go on the Internet and have fun at school.

If you use the term SJW or 'politically correct' to describe anyone left of center, I'm pretty sure that destroys all of your credibility as an intelligent human being. Quit being a twit and use something other than a buzzword to make your point.
