The '''People's Liberation Army''' (Chandan: '''𑐀𑐬‎𑐡‎𑐫𑐣 𑐎𑐵‎𑐮𑐵‎𑐩𑐵𑐣 𑐀𑐬𑐩𑐶''', ''Ardyn Kalaman Armi''), is an [[Chanda|Chandan]] {{wp|military|armed force}}, originally founded as an militia affiliated with the [[International Revolutionary Army]] in 1931. Formerly a military force and governing power of the [[West Shalegho Commandery]], its role has significantly diverged from its origins.

The Army traces its origin to the [[Chandan Resistance]] who fought the [[Heavenly Xiaodongese Empire]] during the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]] and later governed the [[West Shalegho Commandery]] from 1934 to 1951. Like other [[Pardal Republics]], the People's Liberation Army directly controlled and governed the region; while the civilians were largely left to their own affairs, the PLA provided security and other assistance. When the Republic was founded, the PLA was allowed to maintain some autonomy and keep its economic and military assets. Furthermore, the role of the PLA was enshrined in the [[Declaration of the Republic]], tasked to "protect and serve" the country and its people. Sabir worked closely with his allies in the PLA to implement his policies, which further increased their power and their popularity among the people. Its economic role soon eclipsed its military role and it abandoned most of its military functions. Today, the People's Liberation Army has a significant social, political, military, and economic role within Chandan society.

History

Status

The People's Liberation Army operates with considerable autonomy from the Republic of Chanda. While the PLA is officially subservient to the state, it is largely able to make its own decisions with minimal input from the government. It manages its own finances which are independent from the national budget, although the Army has to pay taxes and there is some state oversight such as providing its accounting reports to the National Assembly.

The Army is the second largest landowner in the country, aside from the central government as the Constitution allows the PLA to own, buy, sell, and administrate their own "military owned land". The Army's directly owned land, known as the Internal State, is subject to the Army's own administration and has autonomy. It is considered as a dependent territory, subject directly to the Army's jurisdiction rather than the Chandan government. Inside its own land, the Army can set its own rules and regulations and try rule breaking it its own judicial system. Nevertheless, it still must follow the country's constitution.

Role

The People's Liberation Army is intertwined with the Chandan economy as it operates numerous Army-owned businesses in almost all sectors of the economy. As a result, along with the National Bank of Chanda it is one of the country's key economic institutions, able to steer the economy mostly on its own.

Conservative Birlikists and other nationalists view the Army as a vital institution, and a guardian of the country who keeps the country safe and prosperous.
