Imperial Armed Forces

The **Imperial Armed Forces**, often referred to as the **Imperial Kingdom Military**, rarely called the **Imperial Military** and also simply referred as **Imperial Service**, are the military forces of the Imperial Kingdom that is regarded as being the world's strongest and largest military force in Remnant. It is the successor of the armies that belonged to the Kingdoms of Mantle, Mistral, Vale and Vacuo.

The Armed Forces consists of the Imperial Army and its two sub-branches the Imperial Android and Armour Corps, the Imperial Airfleet and its Fighter Corps, the Imperial Navy, Stormtrooper Corps and the Imperial Security Bureau. The Armed Forces is also responsible for carrying out authorized military operations throughout the world of Remnant and maintaining order and stability within its regional districts.

The Imperial Armed Forces are led by the Supreme Commander and the Moff Council's Imperial High Command. Although the Emperor is the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, he does not have direct involvement with the military forces and usually issues orders through the Moff Council which are then given to High Command to pass on to the military commanders.

## Organization

### Headquarters

The administration of the Imperial Armed Forces—Moff Council and Imperial High Command—are headquartered in the Kingdom's primary capital city of Atlas, being protected by legions of Stormtroopers and the largest airfleet that anyone has seen; consisting of six of the Imperial Airfleet's *Imperial*-class battlecruisers.

The Moff Council often advise the Emperor about military affairs and sought his advice on these matters as well as decisions.

### Administration

Through the Moff Council, Imperial High Command holds the highest authority over the main branches of the Imperial Armed Forces; being the only body of military officers that could appoint, promote or recommend individuals for a certain military rank. The Imperial Airfleet remained one of High Command's most important assets as it controlled the airfleet of the Imperial Kingdom and its nine *Imperial*-class battlecruisers. behemoths.

As the Grand Moff of the Moff Council, Wilhuff Tarkin is the third-in-command of the Armed Forces, just below Maynor and Amdis Hajime, and the second in line to become Emperor, however since the Kingdom was founded by Darth Bane, the Rule of Two forbids this; Tarkin and all other individuals are unaware.

### Tactical organization

When Tarkin was appointed as Grand Moff by Amdis Hajime, he introduced the Tarkin Doctrine, a concept that he had developed while serving as Grand General within the Army. The concept was later developed into the Kingdom's strategy and is the reason as to why each Moff in the Moff Council have direct command and control over military authority in the Kingdom's regional districts.
