The Valorean Armed Forces are the armed forces of Valorea, with the President of the Republic as its commander-in-chief. They are divided into four Arms: the Valorean Republican Army (Vespasian: Esercito Repubblicano Valoreano), the Valorean Republican Navy (Vespasian: Marina Militare Repubblicana Valoreana), the Valorean Republican Airforce (Vespasian: Aeronautica Repubblicana Valoreana) and the Arm of Carabineers (Vespasian: Arma dei Carabinieri). Complementing the four arms, there are also two Independent commands under the Joint Armed Forces Command: the Medical Support Brigade, which with it's field hospitals can intervene in military conflicts as well as help the civilian population in case of natural calamities or other emergencies, and the ISTAR-EW Brigade, which provides the Valorean Armed Forces varied intelligence assets as well as electronic warfare equipment and personell.
The Armed Forces are controlled by the Ministry of Defence, with the Carabineers falling under joint control of the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, since it acts as the State Police Force as well. The commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces is the President of the Republic (currently: Cesare Mezzarin), which has as it's disposition the Joint Armed Forces Command. The Command is formed by the President, the Minister of Defence, the Chief of Staff of each Arm of the Armed Forces, the Director (or a delegate of his) of the Valorean Intelligence Service and a Joint Chief of Staff.
Valorea has an estimated defence budget of $3.742.501.639, which is 2.9% of the National GDP. The Armed Forces are heavily reliant on imported military equipment, since defence industries are negligible and only produce limited quantities of equipment. Most of the equipment is imported from NVO and ECDTO.
Valorea is an NVO associate, meaning that the Valorean Armed Forces get easier equipment import agreements with the member nations, can participate in international training programs (some of which run in Valorean Territory) and take part in NVO joint Missions, while not being part of the Mutual Defence Agreement. That has given acces to the Valorean Armed Forces to a higher standard of training compared to the Asteria Inferior counterparts, and to fairly modern equipment despite the small budget.
