Ambian Civil Defence Force

The Ambian Civil Defence Force (Ambian: Ambjerani Sivildevensen Fouss, ASDF) is the civil defence organization of Amberia. ASDF sorts under the Ambian Department for Civilian Protection which again reports to the Ministry of Justice and Security. The organization is based on conscription where both men and women between the age of 18 and 55 can be called to serve. The Civil Defence are to support the police, fire departments, health care or other public agencies in case of larger incidents which those departments don't have the manpower to handle.
The organization was formed in 1942 in the midst of the Great War to counter what was being perceived as a threat of invasion, concerning Amberia was on the Allied side and was on the border of Dorritadia, one of Amberia's enemies. Thankfully though, Amberia largely saw no fighting on home ground. After the end of the Great War in 1947, ASDF was reformed from a department of the Ministry of Defence, and became largely focused on civilian protection from situations like natural disasters and emergency situations.
The head of the ASDF, since 2014, is Joll Nur-Welless, a PSD member of parliament who took over the job following independent-aligned Craufe Deglije's retirement after controlling ASDF for thirty-six years.
