The Themiclesian Coast Guard (Shinasthana: 中水兵, trjung-st′jur-prjang; abbr. TCG) is the coast guard of Themiclesia. TCG was founded in 1921 by amalgamating prefectural marines, which ensured littoral safety, enforced order in coastal waters, rescued shipwrecks, and intercepted illicit traffic. The Coast Guard has access to the national merchant marine, which is centrally administered. It is normally under the authority of the Secretary of State for Transport, but the Government may grant it to the Defence Secretary as well. While it is maritime in nature, the TCG is usually considered a fourth branch of the Themiclesian forces, after the army, navy, and air force, with respect to its independent purview.
Name
The phrase "Themiclesian Coast Guard" is the official translation of the Shinasthana term trjung-st′jur-prjang (中水兵), which roughly has the literal meaning of "central maritime force". The name stands in contrast with the prefectural marines, which were also "maritime forces" but named after their home prefectures, e.g. lêng-st′jur′-prjang (庭水兵). While the prefix trjung- is used for prefectural forces of the Inner Region, the latter is landlocked and does not field a fleet, so there is no confusion between central and prefectural forces in this instance.
