The National Intelligence Services (Floren: Serveis Nacionals d’Intel·ligència), commonly abbreviated as the NIS, Serveis d’Intel·ligència, or SerNaIntel, and frequently referred to colloquially as the Sentinel (Floren: La Sentinella) is the premier intelligence agency of the Republic of Nuxica. It exists as a conglomerate agency which is tasked with overseeing domestic, foreign, and military intelligence. It is officially led by the Prime Minister of Nuxica, who appoints a Director to personally oversee the agency's daily activities. The Director is required to be a member of either the armed forces, the national gendarme, or a high-ranking employee of the agency itself.
The National Intelligence Services was founded on January 1st, 1935 in the late stages of the Great War as a way to better organize the disparate disparate civil, military, and foreign intelligence bureaus of the country. Initially created as a sub-branch of the Ministry of Defence, the agency was made independent of the Armed Forces in 1950. It was placed under the direct authority of the Chairman of the National Defence Council, the de-facto leader of Nuxica during La Suautadura, that same year. Following the Dahlia Revolution, and subsequent reforms, the agency was made an placed under the direct authority of the Prime Minister in 1989.
Though its overall mandate is broad, the National Intelligence Services is tasked with collecting information, aiding and conducting counter-terrorist operations, and directing covert operations both domestically and internationally as part of the national security interest of the nation. The National Intelligence Services has been criticized by many, both domestically and internationally, for its numerous alleged black operations around the world. It has likewise been criticized for its lack of transparency in the wake of the Dahlia Revolution.
History
Organization and Methods
Organization
The NIS is lead by the Director of the National Intelligence Services who answers directly to the Office of the Prime Minister. The NIS is internally subdivided into three primary internal "services," internal, military, and foreign and is lead by a Subdirector, who oversees the operations of each service. The services are then themselves subdivided into four additional internal organizations who are themselves overseen by a Chief Operations Manager. The organizations are collectively known as The Sentinel or The Intelligence Body.
