What are the branches of your military?

Postby Xiao » Tue Dec 11, 2012 2:32 am

Our military is unique. We have 5 branches instead of 4. We have Army, Marines, Navy, Airforce, and Mechanized Force. The mechanized troops work with armored vehicles and tankettes. The tanks are usually for the Army and Marines. The mechanized force has a duty to protect the tanks and infantry in urban and open warfare.

MT: The Imotan Imperial Self Defense Forces are composed of the Ground Self Defense Force, Maritime Self Defense Force, Air Self Defense Force, and Internal Security Corps, which includes the Gendarmerie and the Coast Guard.

PMT-SW1: The Imotan Imperial Armed Forces are composed of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Internal Security Corps, which includes the Gendarmerie and the Coast Guard. The Imperial Household Agency also runs the Witch Brigade, which uses Navy ranks and operates from Navy carriers to carry out military missions but is officially composed of civilians.

PMT-SW2: The Imotan Imperial Self Defense Forces are composed of the Ground Self Defense Force, Maritime Self Defense Force, Air Self Defense Force, and Internal Security Corps, which includes the Gendarmerie and the Coast Guard. Each of the four branches has their own Witch units, which together form the Witch Command (WITCOM).

Postby Sanian Confederacy » Tue Dec 11, 2012 4:36 am

With its relatively small size and widely scattered possessions, the United Army of the Confederacy is one of the few to operate with a true combined-arms structure, eschewing the rigid formations employed by the majority of the rest of the world's militaries in favour of a more flexible and responsive fighting force. The confederacy's military is split into three major organizations – the Sword, which constitutes the confederacy's prime offensive power; the Shield, which defends the Sanian Confederacy's existing holdings; and the Crucible, a balanced and flexible force that provides both replacement troops and fighting reserves to the other two forces, while being fully capable of engaging in independent action if necessary. Each of these armies is split into ten divisions, any of which can do battle in nearly any environment as a single self contained force. Although their ratio of different assets may vary, confederate divisions include all manner of forces and equipment, from infantry companies all the way up to mighty Cloudships. Moreover, each division has its own organic air support and a battle fleet to transport it anywhere within the confederacy and beyond.

The New Hayesalian Military has three branches. These are the New Hayesalian Navy, responsible for projecting sea power; the New Hayesalian Army which is a ground-based force with the amphibious capabilities of other nation's Marine Corps; and the New Hayesalian Air Force which is charged with the security and supremacy of air and space.

Usually, the Armed Forces are divided into three standard branches - land, sea, and air components, not four. Marines are a silly, needless invention that doesn't fulfill any particular role that couldn't be done by either of the three branches. In that regard, our branches are:


Bürgerliches Heer (Heer) ____________/ Civil Army
Bürgerliche Marine (Marine)__________/ Civil Navy
Bürgerliche Luftwache (Luftwache)__.../ Civil Air Force
Sonderkommando (Sonder)__________../ Special Forces
Strategisches Kommando (Strako)____../ Strategic Command

The Heer is the Land Force, the Marine is the Sea Force, the Luftwache is the Air Force, the Sonder are Special Forces, and the Strako is in command of the strategic arsenal of the nation.

So much about your military being unique. Many nations have 5 or even more branches, often by artificially increasing their branches by separating the Navy and Coast Guard, adding military police separate from the Army, dividing the Air Force into an Air and Air Defence Force, or other such nonsense.

The United Socialist States of Thambia's military is composed of: The army(broken into infantry, mechanized, airforce, and artillery), the navy(marines, sub fleet, and surface fleet), and special forces (rangers, wolf brigade heavy shock troops, red wolves guard, shadow marshalls). Plus, we have 1yr mandatory military service, so almost the whole country is militia.

There are four uniformed branches of the Radiatian Military, plus arguably a fifth branch which is not technically part of the military but is administered by the Federal Ministry of Defence.


The Radiatian Special Operations Division (R-SOD), the intelligence service, is sometimes considered a branch of the military but its status is debatable.

Liberillia's military is simple but effective and highly trained,
The armed forces are all ruled by the Council of Defense, it is split into:
The Territorial Army: These are our brave soldiers that defend our borders from hostile aggression and help out in times of dissaster
The Navy: Self explanatory, guarding the shipping lanes in our waters from piracy or hostile threats
Them: Little is known about them, what their official title or role is, but it appears they are a form of special forces, dedicated to protecting the people.
Liberillia is proud that it's military is purely for defense and the Council of Defense is staunchly against aggressive action outside our borders.
