Intelligence service

[Imperial Paleoworld Germania]

There are two distinct intelligence agencies in Germany: the first is the Nachrichten-Abteilung, a singular military intelligence formed in the late 1920s as a result of the merger of the Army's Abteilung IIIb and the Navy's Nachrichtenburo in an attempt to unify the two after both had proven ineffectual during the Weltkrieg thanks to their disunity. The current chief is Konteradmiral Reinhard Heydrich, a controversial character marked by scandals regarding his affairs in the 1930s and by accusations by left-wing and centrist media (chief among them Diese Woche and Die Weltbuhne) of atrocities committed against prisoners during the Second Weltkrieg. The second is the Kaiserlichenachrichtendienst, or Imperial Intelligence Service, which serves as the primary German foreign and domestic intelligence agency; established after the war by decree of both the Kaiser and Chancellor Goerdeler, it is currently headed by Walter Schellenberg, who was formerly a counter-intelligence agent in the NA during the war.

[Canada Dominion]

After the refounding of the Dominion in 2017 the previous intelligence service CSIS was disbanded due to it's previous activities of suppressing anti-regime dissent. Many former CSIS members are now on trial their activities in suppressing the Canadian people. The activities previously performed by CSIS are now performed by the intelligence branch of the Dominion Police Service.

[Bohnland]

The Bohnish Republic has a pretty robust intelligence service, with each military branch housing its own unique intelligence division, and the government itself forming a community of agencies known as the Septenary. The branches are, as of December 2017:

Intelligence Institutions of the Armed Forces of the Occidental Republic (In Alphabetical Order):
1.) The Office of Intelligence Services for the Army of the Occidental Republic (ARMY-OIS)
2.) The Office of Intelligence Services for the Home Guard of the Occidental Republic (HOME-OIS)
3.) The Office of Intelligence Services for the Navy of the Occidental Republic (NAVY-OIS)

Intelligence Institutions of the National Government (In Alphabetical Order):
1.) The Bohnish Aeronautics and Space Exploration Division - Intelligence and Security Office (BASED-ISO)
2.) The Counterintelligence Security Administration (CSA)
3.) The Department for Integrated Strategies on Counterterrorism (DISC)
4.) The National Intelligence and Reconnaissance Agency (NIRA)

[Aldina]

Until 1932 Aldina had no central independent intelligence service; military intelligence operations were carried out by each branch's own dedicated intelligence arm, resulting in a great deal of rivalry between intelligence organizations. Emperor Maximillian ordered the formation of the Imperial Ministry of Intelligence (nicknamed the Silent Office) in 1932 to act as a clearinghouse for all Imperial intelligence operations; however, it found itself operating as a full-fledged intelligence agency in its own right by 1935.

The Undying Empire's systematic government classifies the intelligence aspects of the nation in the following manners.

The government sphere overseeing all matters of intelligence is the Sphere of Intelligence, headed by Aeragar Orbareon Arnaris, the Predarys of Intelligence. This is one of the twelve government Spheres, and it is responsible for reporting to the Emperor directly on all matters of intelligence. All intelligence branches are subordinate to this Sphere.

Next comes the Ministry of Intelligence. Whilst the Sphere is the Emperor's direct source, the Ministry forms the bulk of intelligence, and is part of the Sphere rather than being underneath it.

Next is Ephyral Intelligence. Ephyral Intelligence is the 'master organisation', whose agents and staff compile and oversee all data and knowledge acquired from the three distinct branches of intelligence.

The Special Intelligence Agency is the foreign service of the empire. Utilising live agents in foreign nations, or operating from the empire and cataloging events outside of it, the Special Intelligence Agency is charged with limiting external threats to the empire.

The Security Intelligence Service is the domestic service of the empire. Their role is to remove internal threats, such as exposing traitors, dealing with terrorists, and providing key information on insurrections.

The Defence Intelligence Service is the military intelligence service of the empire. More of a combined overlap of the above two, the Defence Intelligence Service uses both external and internal sources, but purely to focus on military affairs.

[Mangahhan Super Region]

The primary intelligence service of MSR is the MARIA or Mangahhan Reconnaissance and Intelligence Agency. Its mission is to analyse, and exploitation of information for support of law enforcement, national security, and foreign policies.

The MARIA provides early warning of enemy attacks, crisis management during a national crisis, planning the defense and intelligence support for the armed forces, support on law enforcement and provide counter-intelligence against foreign spies.

[Fatatatutti]

Fatatatutti Intelligence (FI) is the umbrella organization that co-ordinates information gathered by Army Intelligence, Naval Intelligence, etc. Department Number 6 (FI6) handles foreign intelligence while Department Number 5 (FI5) handles domestic counter-intelligence. Department Number 2 (FI2) is the cafeteria, which is open to the public.

[Vallermoore]

Ours is the Vallermoorian Secret Service. (VSS.) As well as human agents, drones and bugs we have many changelings in our ranks who can infiltrate places quite easily for the most part.

[Saradena]

Esgonia has two primary Intelligence Organizations:

The:

• EIS (Esgonian Intelligence Service)
  
  The agency assigned to handle foreign affairs, the Agency was established in 1935, but its origins date back to the 15th Century. They're assigned to handle operations such as espionage, intelligence gathering and coordinating, and others. They also have their own Special Operations paramilitary group named HUNTR who handles operations involving engagement of or deep reconnaissance and observation ops. Along with them, the agency has other equipment such as drones, surveillance satellites, and is rumored to have extremely classified prototype synthetic soldiers in their inventory.
• ISAE (Internal Security Agency of Esgonia)
  
  The agency assigned to handle internal affairs. Their operations involve gathering intelligence of wanted criminals, terrorists, dissidents, and coup-plotters, along with foreign unwanted elements. Unlike the EIS, they do not have their own special ops group; instead, they coordinate with the Federal Security Bureau.

[Sharko Federation]

The Kingdom of Eastern Gaau has a single secret/intelligence service, the Embroidered Uniform Guard (Gaaunese: 錦衣衛; Royally Approved Gaaunese Romanization Method: Gámyīwaih). The Embroidered Uniform Guard was originally created as an imperial secret police body under Emperor Gaau Chí Wòhng in 1968, although its functions later expanded to collecting military intelligence on the enemy and acting as a bodyguard for the Emperor.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard is headed by a Gamyiwaih Commander appointed by the Emperor with assistance from the Ministry of War. Xue Song is the current guard commander, appointed by Emperor Gaau Yih Sai in 2014.

The Ministry of National Security is the intelligence agency and security agency of the People's Republic of Zhouran. Responsible for domestic, foreign and military intelligence operations, the MNS is under the jurisdiction of the State Presidium. The Minister of National Security is chosen by the State Presidium while the chairmen of each bureaus are chosen by the Minister of National Security.

Bureaus

- 1st Security Bureau: Established on December 4, 1956, the 1st Security Bureau is responsible for foreign operations and intelligence collection activities by training and managing covert agents for collecting political, scientific and technical intelligence in foreign countries.

- 2nd Security Bureau: Established in early 1957, the 2nd Security Bureau is responsible for domestic intelligence gathering, internal security and counter-intelligence.

- 3rd Security Bureau: Established in early 1957, the 3rd Security Bureau is responsible for signals intelligence (SIGINT), measurement and signature intelligence (MASINT), and imagery intelligence (IMINT).

Since the Cold War, the MNS is considered to be one of the world's most effective information-gathering organization, operating both legal and illegal espionage residencies in target countries where a legal resident would gather intelligence while based at a Zhouranese embassy or consulate, and, if caught, was protected from prosecution by diplomatic immunity. At best, the compromised spy would either be returned to the People's Republic of Zhouran or declared persona non grata and expelled by the government of the target country. The illegal resident would spy, unprotected by diplomatic immunity, and work independently of Zhouranese diplomatic and trade missions. Interestingly, the Ministry of National Security would value illegal spies more than legal spies, since illegal spies can infiltrate their targets with greater ease. As a result, the MNS is involved in numerous covert clandestine black-operations in numerous nations by going beyond national and international laws. Apart from conducting espionage and counter-intelligence, the MNS is also highly involved in infiltration of any target group to aggressively sow dissension and subversion, influence policy, and arrange kidnappings and assassinations. One of the most recent rumors regarding the Ministry of National Security being "provocative" is the rumor created by American mainstream media, in which they state that the MNS sent agents provocateurs to infiltrate both the Alt-Right and Antifa in order to instigate further chaos in the current already-divided political discord of the United States. The Ministry of National Security has strongly denied such ridiculous claim with one official calling the American media "mentally-challenged".

Activities and operations conducted by the MNS are highly confidential and declassification of past operations are uncommon. Despite excessive secrecy surrounding activities and rare declassification of information on past operations, the MNS receives large attention from the populace, going as far as to appearing in numerous forms of media in the country including film and television. Because of its highly-secretive, enigmatic, clandestine nature, the MNS has also appeared in foreign spy-thrillers, either as powerful allies or powerful foes.

Thanks to its effectiveness, the MNS is considered by analysts to be one of the primary instruments of Zhouran's national power. Not only that, many consider the Ministry of National Security to be one of the world's top player in the espionage stage. Apart from being considered one of the strongest in the world, the MNS is also considered to be one of the most brutal. The MNS has long been accused of using designated terrorist groups and militants to conduct proxy wars against those considered to be "enemies of the People's Republic". Not only that, the MNS is also known for conducting various successful assassinations against various high-profile targets from around the world and kidnapping targets to interrogate and torture.

[Union of Socialist Alpine Republics]

The Union of Socialist Alpine Republics does not officially have an intelligence service.

However, we created the Kontinental Geopolitics Bureau (KGB) to study geopolitics within and outside our region. As its name says, the KGB study geopolitics.

The KGB does not spy on capitalist nations and interfere in their elections. No we don't do that.

Lyridgradia intelligence service is the Имперская Cекретная Cлужба (ИCC-ISS) in russian and in german Reich Geheimdienst (RG), a special subdivison of the armed forces

[Saurisisia]

The Agenzia Federale ti Intelligenza et Operazioni (Federal Agency for Intelligence and Operations), or AFIO, is Saurisia's premier intelligence and security agency, responsible for foreign and domestic intelligence operations. It is subordinate to the Consuls themselves, and any decisions deemed crucial would be debated between the two; its current chairsaur is Deganwadonti Tahonwagalo, a Tempertian Saurian from the city of Kanonwalohale. The activities of the AFIO are highly secretive, the majority of its activities are kept classified for decades, and retired agents are quietly relocated to remote areas, where they are less likely to dispel important details regarding the Agency's operations.

The Ufficio ti Intelligenza Tell'esercito (Army Intelligence Office), or UIT, is the primary Saurisian military intelligence agency, subsidiary to the Logothetum of War. They are in charge of investigating military affairs, both foreign and domestic, and are tasked with gathering information on foreign military strength and activities. The current chief of the UIT is Generale tell Divisioni Eli Alasania, a Varkussian Zanvelian male.
