The Zanarkand Defence Force is the military organisation responsible for the defence of Zanarkand. It consists of the Royal Zanarkian Navy (RZN), Zanarkian Army, Royal Zanarkian Air Force (RZAF) and a number of 'tri-service' units.
During the first decades of the 20th century, the Zanarkian Government established the armed services as separate organisations. Each service had an independent chain of command. In 1976, the government made a strategic change and established the ZDF to place the services under a single headquarters. Over time, the degree of integration has increased and tri-service headquarters, logistics and training institutions have supplanted many single-service establishments.
The ZDF is technologically sophisticated but minuscule compared to the Ingelmian Republican Army's 3,500,000 strong force. Although the ZDF's 685,000 full-time active-duty personnel and 1,412,000 active reservists and often deployed alongside the New Akiba Defence Force, is able to safeguard the security and remain vigilant on securing Ingelmia's expansionism.
