The Gassasinian Defence Force is the unified armed forces of Gassasinia, being responsible for defending Gassasinia and its' people from external threats, along with supporting international peacekeeping efforts and humanitarian aid. The current Gassasinian Defence Force was formed in 1985 from the previous Gassasinian Badawiyan Army and the Gassasinian Royal Armed Forces, and drew its' commanders, officers and soldiers from a diverse range of backgrounds to ensure that the Gassasinian Defence Force not just represented upper-class Sotirianism interests, but the interests of the people as a whole.
Today the Gassasinian Defence Force is a well-equipped, well-organised and well-trained - albeit small force - relying on effective organisation and technological advantage over more numerous enemies. It is well-equipped with a variety of modern armoured armoured fighting vehicles and aircraft developed in Euclea and Asteria Superior. The Gassasinian Defence Force mainly consists of a professional force of volunteer soldiers, with conscription being abolished in 1985.
The Gassasinian Defence Force is known its' contributions to world-wide peacekeeping operations, having been present in some capacity in almost all Community of Nations-lead peacekeeping operations since 1990. The Gassasinian Defence Force is also important in ensuring internal security in Gassasinia, in particular helping the Royal Gassasinian Police to patrol the border with Tsabara.
