The Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB) (Morrawian: Federální wyṡetṙovací úṙad) is the domestic intelligence and security service of the Republic of Morrawia and its principal federal law enforcement agency. An agency of the Morrawian Ministry of the Interior, the FIB is a member of the Morrawian Intelligence Community and reports to both the Minister of the Interior and the Director of National Intelligence. A leading Morrawian counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and criminal investigative organization, the FIB has jurisdiction over violations of hundreds of categories of federal crimes.
Although many of the FIB's functions are unique, its activities in support of national security are comparable to those of other countries´ national police and counterintelligence departments. Unlike the Foreign Intelligence Agency (FIA), which has no law enforcement authority and is focused on intelligence collection abroad, the FIB is primarily a domestic agency, maintaining 23 field offices in mostly major cities throughout Morrawia, and more than 200 resident agencies in smaller cities and areas across the nation. At an FIB field office, a senior-level FIB officer concurrently serves as the representative of the director of National Intelligence.
Despite its domestic focus, the FIB also maintains a significant international footprint, operating Legal Attache (LEGAT) offices and several sub-offices in Morrawian embassies and consulates across the globe. These foreign offices exist primarily for the purpose of coordination with foreign security services and do not usually conduct unilateral operations in the host countries. The FIB can and does at times carry out secret activities overseas, just as the FIA has a limited domestic function. These activities generally require coordination across government agencies.
The FIB was established in 1905 as the National Office of Investigation, the NOI or OI for short (NÚW in Morrawiam). Its name was changed to the Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB) in 1932. The FIB headquarters is the Eduard T. Filip Building in Králowec, F.D. The FIB has a List of the TOP 10 criminals.

History
Organization
Organizational structure
The FBI is organized into functional branches and the Office of the Director, which contains most administrative offices. An executive assistant director manages each branch. Each branch is then divided into offices and divisions, each headed by an assistant director. The various divisions are further divided into sub-branches, led by deputy assistant directors. Within these sub-branches, there are various sections headed by section chiefs. Section chiefs are ranked analogous to special agents in charge. Four of the branches report to the deputy director while two report to the associate director.
The main branches of the FBI are:[62]
FBI Intelligence Branch FBI National Security Branch FBI Criminal, Cyber, Response, and Services Branch FBI Science and Technology Branch FBI Information and Technology Branch FBI Human Resources Branch

Media portrayal
The FIB has been frequently depicted in popular media since the 1930s. The bureau has participated to varying degrees, which has ranged from direct involvement in the creative process of film or TV series development, to providing consultation on operations and closed cases. A few of the notable portrayals of the FIB on television are the series Classified, which started in 1991 and concluded its twelfth season in early 2018, and concerned investigations into paranormal phenomena by five fictional special agents, and the fictional Counterterrorism Unit(CTU) agency in the TV drama Ready!, which is patterned after the FIB´s Counterterrorism Division.
The 1990 movie Groupmen depicts an undercover FIB agent who infiltrated a gang of bank robbers. The 1997 movie Wáclaw is based on the true story of undercover FIB agent infiltrating the Mafia. The 2005–2020 television series Crime Catchers, that follows the team members of the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) in the pursuit of serial killers. The 2012 TV series Kasan where one of the main characters is an FIB agent. The 2016 TV series String, titled after the location of the Bureau's training facility, deals with probationary and special agents, not all of whom, within the show's format, may be fully reliable or even trustworthy.
The 2018 series FIB, set in Marwany that follows the personal and professional lives of the agents assigned to 31 Federal Plaza (Marwany FBI field office). FIB's first spin-off titled FBI: Breaking Point (2019), follows the FIB's Fugitive Task Force in chasing down the Morrawia's most wanted criminals, and the second spin-off, FIB: Global (2021), follows the FIB's International Fly Team that goes where ever they are needed in the world to protect the Morrawia's interests.
