The Kyotakavian Liberation Army (KLA; Kyotakavian: Kyjorja Literja Armee), is a Kyotakavian paramilitary organisation that sought to end Svozgardan rule in Kyotakavia and bring about an independent Kyotakavian Republic. It is the most effective nationalist paramilitary group in Kyotakavia having been responsible for the vast majority of security force deaths over the course of the Kyotakavian-Svogardan conflict. It is designated as a proscribed organisation in both Kyotakavia and Svozgarda though in practice, it is functionally allowed to exist due to an often implemented policy of non-cooperation with Svozgarda on issues of internal security, that has been implemented at various points by Kyotakavian governments.

As the longest running, continuous Kyotakavian Nationalist paramilitary, the KLA have a political cult, in both Kyotakavia and Svozgarda. In the former, the KLA has occasionally been referred to as the "forever corps," referencing their nearly two century long struggle against the Svozgardan Armed Forces. In Svozgarda, the KLA is seen as a ruthless terrorist organisation, but such a status comes with an indirect respect, as a leaked 1902 PISF document described the KLA as "the worst enemy that Svozgarda has faced. Not for any threat they pose to the institutions of the state, or monarchy, nor for any threat to the sovereignty of Svozgarda, but for the dogged determination by which they continue to fight for their cause, never seeming to be phased by any great failure, always boosted by success, and ruthlessly efficient in the execution of their goals. The KLA is an organisation strong enough to withstand the rigours of a two century conflict, and whilst our list of suspected members is long, the political circumstance of Kyotakavia, the Protectorates' lack of cooperation, as well as the status of many of those on said list, makes any move to arrest suspected members; impossible."

Whilst the KLA's ability to fight the Svozgardan state had waned over the course of the late 19th, early 20th Century, bottoming out at less than 10,000 members, the 1920 general election proved a turning point, with the 'collaboration' of the Populist-Traditionalist government driving recruitment, from a barely fluctuating 17,500, to over 55,000 in less than five years. By 1924, the KLA once again had 5,000 members in every state of Kyotakavia, and between 1920 - 1926 the KLA killed approximately 1,100 members of the Svozgardan security forces, being the second largest cause of career end in the PISF during the course of 1924 with killing 429 PISF officers. The first largest cause of career end was injury in the line of duty, for which the KLA was responsible for 1,008, making it both the largest, and second largest cause of retirement in the PISF (third was retirement with 207 officers in 1924).
