Provincial Armies

The Imperial Defense Act was implemented by the Arch-Imperium during the start of the Xheng-Kiev War. This act was a method of mass mobilization of the population into a huge army that could be used in wartime. The Imperial Defense Act put into law wartime conscription as well as mass training and distribution of weapons. The Imperial Defense Act also allowed the Arch-Imperium to begin the Cultural Revitalization movement. Effectively the Arch-Imperium could afford the armed forces that the Imperial Defense Act would mass for a relatively long period of time but also being a capitalist nation, they saw the need to balance the budget. The population of the Arch-Imperium allowed the formation of such an armed force but the Imperial Stratagem was also aware that the population would not live in a military state.

The Arch-Imperium's Military force itself is comprised of a National defense ground force. The forces of the Imperiums are detachments of the Military itself.

The Imperial Security Institution (ISI) is the security insitution of the Arch-Imperium. The ISI has remarkable autonomy from the government but operates still within the limits of government activity. The ISI is responsible for maintaining security within government facilities as well as espionage and counter-espionage activities throughout the Arch-Imperium and its respected areas of interests. Currently the official number of ISI agents is kept off public records for the protection of the agents as well as public safety.
