The Qazhshavan ground Forces (Qazhshavan: Барийни куўат нæ Қажшва ) are the ground warfare branch of the Qazhshavan Armed Forces. The Land Forces were established in the 1890, when they were composed of anti-Bak militia (opalchentsi) and were the only branch of the Qazhshavan military. The Ground Forces are administered by the Ministry of Defence, previously known as the Ministry of War during the II Khanate of Qazhshava. The Qash Ground forces have been involved in the qash civil war (1987-1996) and the Peace Keeping Mission at the Teckia-Shedic border.
The Ground Forces were made up of conscripts throughout most of Qazhshava's history. During the Qash independence wars of the 1890s , it fielded more than one million troops out of Qazhshava's total population of around 9 million. Two-year conscription was obligatory during the II Khanate of Qazhshava (1900–2020), but its term was reduced in the 1980s.
