The Skarmian Defence Services (Skarmic: Ieskarmiket Sluzbai Ichur, IPA: [ ]; Beleroskovi: Sluzhby Oborony Skarmii, IPA: [ ]) are the unified military forces of the Federation of Skarmia. The Skarmian Defence Services consist of the Skarmian Army, the Skarmian Navy, the Skarmian Air Force, the Highlander Guards and Skarmian Military Intelligence. The national defence policy aims to guarantee the preservation of the independence and sovereignty of the state, the integrity of its land area, territorial waters, airspace and its constitutional order.

History

During the long period when Skarmia was under Beleroskovi control (as the Southwestern Krai), military defence of the region was twofold - the Imperial military defended its borders, but many of the Skarmic tribes regularly collaborated with Beleroskovi military interests, operating semi-independently as vassals of the Empire. Numerous Skarmic hosts pledged their own loyalty to the Empire directly, and for many years, this policy of Skarmic tribesmen independently fighting alongside Imperial forces, often with written contracts promising generous pay for their mercenary work, was codified in law, forming a great deal of the basis for the current iteration of the Skarmic tribal hierarchy. However, in 1867, as it became more apparent that hiring Skarmic mercenaries was an inferior policy to holding a standing army, the Empire formed the Highlander Guard, comprised mainly of ethnic Skarmic people, and with many of the hosts that had subjected themselves willingly to the Empire.
