The Zacapine Armed Forces (Nahuatl: ππ°π¬π½π¨πΆπ°ππ¨ππ»ππ¨ πππ¬π½ππ― ππ°πΏπ°πΉπ¨π·π¬π»π, Yaochihualiztli Olochme Zacapiyotl) are the military forces of the United Zacapine Republics. It is consolidated into the Zacapine Army, the Zacapine Air Force and the Zacapine Navy. Each branch contains subordinate corps responsible for specific functions, such as the Marines or Coast Guard within the Navy or the Republican Guards within the Army. The Armed Forces are supplied by the state run military industry conglomerate Cuauhquetztia as well as specific foreign contractors, provisioning the military with all of its needs from the most basic to most sophisticated and complex. The overall command and administration of the Armed Forces and its three branches is located within the Yaoyotepec compound, a large administrative complex and military command bunker near Quitzapatzaro in the Autonomous Federal District in western Zacapican. Under the Zacapine constitution, the Armed Forces are formally commanded by the Tepachoani, currently Zianya Xcaret, and administered the Secretary of Defense Nezahualcoyotl Amanaztli. In practical terms, the de facto commander of the Armed Forces is the Chief of the General Staff appointed by the Secretary of Defense and the Tepachoani to preside over the day to day operations of the military and security forces.
