Gantislovk Armed Forces
The Department of the Armed Forces are the military of Gantislovk.
It doesn't contain branches, but rather divisions.
The Divisions work together with different tasks- rather than are entire separate departments. Divisions generally share vehicles and gear, but the troops in them may be stationed in different positions for different purposes. For example, some planes, or helicopters, may be shared between divisions. Troops are allowed to join 2 divisions- but only if they have training in both divisions, and are recommended by a high-rank.
This makes for a more cooperative, effective military system.
