The Tengarian Home Guard (Tengarian: Тенгарска патрия Oхрана), historically known as the Imperial Guard and known simply as the Okhrana ("Guard"), is the gendarmerie of Tengaria and a section of the Tengarian Armed Forces. It has historically served a wide variety of functions, and currently serves as the primary Tengarian unit for internal security. Comprised of multiple branches and subunits, it is one of the world's most broad-reaching gendarmerie forces.
The Home Guard has four primary divisions. The largest of these is the Gendarmerie Guard, which is one of Tengaria's two law enforcement agencies, dealing with significant internal crises and emergencies, and functions as the military police for the Armed Forces. The second is the Border Guard, which covers the country's border control and protection, as well as customs and immigration control. The most historic branch, the Life Guard, serves as a bodyguard and security guard for important politicians and political assets. The Guard Department is an intelligence agency which historically also functioned as a secret police. As a part of the Armed Forces, it is overseen by the Ministry of Defense, although the Guard Department and Gendarmerie Guard also report to the Ministry of the Interior.
The Imperial Guard was founded in 1407 by Emperor Vasil II "the Bold" from his companions, initially as a unit of cavalry which accompanied the Emperor on the field of battle. After Vasil's death the Guards transitioned into several elite units which remained in the personal service of the Emperor but often operated with the Imperial Army. In the 19th century the Guard began to expand its capacities and numbers, taking on roles of a gendarmerie following the Gaullican model and later containing the Tengaria's counter-revolutionary intelligence agency and secret police. During the Tengarian Republic, the Guard was renamed and split into various branches. After the Tengarian Civil War, the Home Guard was again reformed and restored to its functions.
