The Ministry of Armed Forces has several units that can be designated as special forces - the 78th Assault Division (which actually isn't a division, and has only about 7.5K soldiers in 6 SORBATs - standing for "Special Operations Reinforced Battalion" - that are working in close rear), the 108th Light Brigade (which is used for quick infiltration and destructive actions near the frontline) and the infamous Canterlot 800 Regiment, which consists of literal shapeshifters.

The FEH (Fuerza Especial de Hidroaviones) are a commando unit that performs operations behind enemy lines, historically, and sometimes currently, using seaplanes or flying boats to enter and exit the combat zone. While usually recruited from the Army, they are part of the navy while serving the FEH.

The main "Frontline Special Forces." Are Los Audaces, an extra-trained unit founded in 1919 with heavy inspiration from the Italian Arditi shock troops of World War One, from whom some advisors were imported in the years immediately following the war. They serve a similar role to Army Rangers.
OOC- Any other states presenting themselves as representing all or part of the nation of Tropico from the series of City Builders are not operated by me nor are they canon to Estado de Tropico's lore. The existence of such states as have been founded on or after the 18th of October 2021, seemingly in response to my activity, have done so without my consent, but are permitted to do so by virtue of Tropico as a general country not being the unique and original intellectual property of any NS player. Nonetheless, their existence, being conflicting with my own, should be interpreted as taking place in a separate universe, as Nation States is multiversal, and no claims of accomplishing or attempting secession or other seizure of power from or by Estado de Tropico are true.

The Royal Marines Special Forces Wing, Royal Army Special Forces Taskforce and Royal Navy Special Forces Fleet.
They all have specialised regiments within them, tasked with everything from espionage to frontline duty.

There's many. The Army haves the Special Forest Operations Units, Special Mountain Operations Units, Special Urban Operations Units, and also another special operations units less foccused in operate in specific terrains but in the most diverse kind of operations, from irregular to conventional warfare, like the Special Operations Batallion and the Counterterrorism and Counterinsurgency Special Force. There is also the Special Parachuter Operations (as the name says, more trained parachuter units).
The Air Defense Force haves also it's special forces unit, the Airborne Rescue Squadron (dedicated to rescue pilots downed behind enemy lines).
The Navy have with its Marines the Combat Divers Special Unit, the Marines Special Operations Unit, and the Paramarines Units.
The National Guard, despite being a civilian militia and military reserve force, have some units that receives special operations training by the Army, these are called the National Guard Vanguard, Special Purpose and Internal Order Group of Guards, and Special Counterterrorism and Counterinsurgency Group of Guards.
All these ones above are under the command of the Imperial Armed Forces Special Operations Joint Command. This one also haves under his direct command the Military Inteligence Special Operations Group, trough the General Directorate of Military Inteligence.
The Imperial Inteligence Agency have their own too, just called Operational Special Deployment Unit.
The Imperial Federal Police have their Command of Tactical Operations and the Special Deployment Unit, the Special Penitentiary Control Unit, the Quick Response Group, and the Counterterrorism and Counterinsurgency Group.
Each province also have their own police special operations along their police forces, usually called just Battalion of Special Operations. The Imperial Provincial Police forces also haves theirs special Riot Control and Shock Operations Units, Penitentiary Control Units and also their own Counterterrorism and Counterinsurgency Groups.
...
And them we have the Royal Guard, which is dedicated to protect the Emperor, and is subordinated directly to him, and the royal family and invites some of the better personel from other units to join their ranks. Although, this group often conducts other special operations and is capable of inteligence actions, toghetter other forces or alone, that are specially important to the State.

All these special operations units often train and act toghetter, sharing their skills among them, and also train some of the general personnel too.

The modern day Eagle Warriors are a special airforce unit and the Jaguar Warriors are specially trained ground soldiers unit.

The only known special forces as of now is Squadron 7, the intergalactic equivalent of the Navy Seals, a sub-unit of the R.I.S.E. led by Karola. All of them have at least a high school diploma, few have received higher education. They operate the more complicated legwork of the R.I.S.E., making the main force's lives much easier. Considered to be the "best of the best" as an elite reserve in case the main force is driven to defeat, wielding powerful magical elements to their arsenal due to being privileged to do so, highly resistant to their respective elements, and can recover much faster than the rest of the military from their metabolism genes, until it wears off at the age of twenty. In their spare time, they focus on living out their own daily lives, as long as 20% of the income each month they earn is paid back to the government.
The Story News [TSN]: 179 million people, all military units including Zamo Tamahasi, the newest elected Prime Minister had just left for the stars in emergency rescue mission by KP-13, leaving Rucian to fight alone by herself as the last human on Rucia against overwhelming odds on her glassed homeland. Fate of other four planets in Keteria remains unknown.

not by the normal definition, our special forces are basically just more skilled and better equipped normal forces.

The main special forces branch of Karazicu is the SAJ. The SAJ has earned themselves the title of the "non-existent army" owed to the fact that there is extremely little information about them that most people are able to know thanks to heavy redaction of information relating to them, as well as their ability to complete their assigned tasks quickly and silently. It is known that they make use of suppressed weaponry such as the KP1 (effectively a modified AS VAL) in order to make themselves less noticable. They usually wear darkly colored, mainly black, armor vests in order to make themselves less visible, especially during nighttime, which happens to be the time in which most SAJ missions take place. Alongside acting as a special forces group, they also behave as a sort of secret service, being able to infiltrate enemy territory in order to perform acts of sabotage or to gather intelligence.

Historically the Imperial Guards (Wāhanga Tohunga) have performed the functions of an elite, special forces unit and were always considered their own separate branch of the Imperial Armed Forces, directly controlled by the Empress (as opposed to other branches which were commanded by the Rangatira).

Since 1979, when Tangatarehua renounced its right to declare war and formally disbanded the Imperial Armed Forces, the Imperial Guards have been reduced primarily to a civilian law enforcement agency tasked with protecting the Imperial Family, however they are one of only three agencies in Tangatarehua still permitted to carry firearms.

At its peak there were an estimated 100,000 - 500,000 Imperial Guards, today that number is less than 1,000 and most regiments exist entirely for ceremonial purposes.

Rhodevus has many branches of special forces for different reasons and specialties. Listed are the most famous/well-known:

The Rhodeve Special Forces: Well, actually called the Rhodeve Air, Land and Sea Specialist Division, this is what most people think of when someone says 'special forces' in Rhodevus. These guys are trained to be active duty on multiple types/fields of combat, with a brutal training regimen.

The Royal Rhodeve Guards Battalion: The soldiers tasks with guarding the monarch, heir and multiple other important governmental and symbolic landmarks. They have specialist training as well as additional guard training, which makes them high-class and very impressive in their duties.

The Royal Rhodeve Mountain Police (RRMoP): Not to be (but often are) confused with the Royal Rhodeve Mounted Police, these guys are specialists in mountain and snow-based warfare and espionage.

The Rhodeve Anti-Terror Unit: Specializing in anti-terror warfare, these guys deal with terrorists and anti-Rhodeve polots.

The 42nd Specialist Division: More often just called the 42's, these guys are the most elite of the elite special forces division. With numerous successful missions, almost all of which are classified in some respect, these people mean business.

There are also specialists, which themselves don't classify as special forces, but individual soldiers which have taken specialist courses, such as those relating to cyber-warfare, sniper, mortar, close-combat, driving, rangers, etc.

Grey Wardens ( i will work on them after i finish history ) have mostly dark suits to blend in to the nations we are spying on mostly, communist and fascist ones. We also got some extra people for destroying things and catching spies.
If steal, only millions. If give, only best.
