How Does Your Military Handle Civilians in a War-Zone?

[Ereb Nataan]

In Ereb Nataan, we have not had a military conflict that resulted in our own civilians being caught in the engagement. Most of our population lives in the vast cave systems beneath our mountains, which our military forces are highly experienced in, so it makes movement and fighting for the enemy extremely difficult. If we encounter civilians in foreign engagements, then they are treated the like any other soldier and are either slaughtered or captured because they were foolish enough to stand in our path to glorious conquest in the name of the Emperor!

[Atalissa]

if any civilians in Nachfolgian occupied enemy nations oppose us in any way such as failure to swear loyalty to our leader, failure to address officers correctly,failure to follow the orders of a Nachfolgian, failure to abid to martial law or take up arms against us will be punished severely.

punishments vary between a rifle butt to the face or body, beatings, enslavement, prison,and execution depending on the severeity of the offense.

Your soldiers are the exact sort who would not do very well in U.S. territory. Your soldiers would develop this odd habit of dying heroically when their positions were taken.

If you think you can shock us with how cruel you are, buckle up and get ready for the worst surprise of your lives. There is a reason we still use flamethrowers.

[Chernobyl-Pripyat]

Civilian casualties are to be avoided if possible, but we will not alter operations should they be in the way - they are taken into account during the planning phase. Once basic services have been restored to an occupation zone, they are largely ignored but are to follow a strict curfew. Resistance fighters, bandits and other trouble makers are targets of priority for units assigned to such tasks.

On home soil or in friendly nations, they are evacuated from areas close to fighting, but still are expected.

[Grand Britannia]

We usually try to keep civilian casualties at a minimum, after all, it is impossible to end a war without one.

If the civilians are unarmed, and pose no threat, they are instructed to leave the area. Warning shots may be used if they do not move. However, if they are armed, our soldiers are in their full right to shoot to kill.

[Suidwes-Afrika]

Civilians in a domestic warzone are normally evacuated forcibly from the area if the conflict in question involves a foreign power. If it involves an insurgency or civil war, civilians in the same circumstances will not be permitted to leave. They are stripped of their basic human rights and are at the mercy of security forces - anyone suspected of being sympathetic to a rebellious cause is hanged or shot outright.

As for a foreign warzone, more prominent civilians are rounded up and held as hostages or sent to internment camps. Others are ordered to stay in their homes and observe a dusk-to-dawn curfew under the threat of immediate and public execution if they violate the military's directives.

[Sidhae]

Ignore them if they are friendly and cooperative, kill them indiscriminately if they are a liability in any way.

[Auzkhia]

the zone is under military administration and the civilians are under martial law.
it is more strict for foreign civilians as they are watched

[The Hierarchy]

The Hierarchy can always use more cannon fodder to keep shots away from our much more important Walkers, and that is what we plan to use them for once we are done murdering their government and military anyway, so this is usually their fate. Everything else on the field is either an asset or a target, why should the civilians of the lesser nations be discounted from this? Besides, we are culling their nation, leaving civilians alive and free would contradict that goal.

[Saurisisia]

Leave them alone if they do not resist. If they do resist, and resist violently with weapons, then they are put down with brute force.

[The BranRiech]

The Branriech Military takes the Soviet approach and usually shoots anyone who's not on their side, civie or not.

[YellowApple]

Civilians in YellowApplan peacekeeping operations are treated as if they were YellowApplan citizens, and consequently are not only treated well, but are additionally explicitly protected by YellowApplan ground and aerospace forces, to the point of an enemy - or even an ally - firing upon a civilian being an act of war against YellowApple, Inc. itself and addressed accordingly.

[Stovokor]

In the chance that such a war is being fought on Imperial soil, all non combatants are to be evacuated with the greatest of care to be later armed at forward operating bases and sent into the fray.

If Stovokor is invading, it depends on what type of policy we chose to adopt before invading. More often than not we ignore the civilians unless they become a threat.

However, in other cases we follow a slash a burn doctrine of complete extermination of all assets of the nation we are invading, including their populous.

[Great Nepal]

Our civilian: We inform them of evacuation to safe zones and provide means to do so. We dont however bend over backward to protect those who are left behind since they are there because they disobeyed official advice; we do however try to avoid their casualties.

Enemy civilian: We expect enemy to have done same thing and evacuated their civilians: if they didn't - then we have expected civilians to use common sense and move out. If they haven't then thats just tough.

[Arkiasis]

In areas of immediate danger civilians are advised to evacuate the area and soldiers will help in them doing so, if they refuse, they will be ignored, however treated with extreme caution. In an allied occupied zones civilians are treated with respect and soldiers will provide food and water to civilians. In enemy occupied zones civilians are treated with extreme caution as we don't know who can be enemy or who can be harmless, if they do not impede the progress in completing our mission they are ignored.

[Bangsamoro Mindanao]

According to the Laws and Customs of War. Deliberately attacking noncombatants is a war crime that will be punished accordingly.

[Winslavia]

I'm guessing foreign-civilians. We keep them out of danger.
Except we've never been in a war, because everybody loves us too much.

[Greater Nazi Germania]

If they are deemed harmless , they come under occupation , forcefully if necessary ; those with important information are taken as POW .

[Anacasppia]

Generally, they will be advised to stay within their homes or a public center. The military has to take all precaution in avoiding collateral damage, and neglect towards the safety of civilians and their property is punishable by court-martial. That said, civilians who assist or harbor the enemy are regarded as combatants.
