The Caradian Armed Forces, sometimes called the Caradian Legion or Flemic Legion by Caradians, is the group tasked with the defense of Caradian ideals, and the propagation of those ideals. It consists of six units divided into three branches; the Legions of the Black Flame, the Black Armada, and the Skyfleet. These units have been given permission by the Duke to represent Caradia in conflicts that the Caradian government itself has no interest in by fighting as a mercenary unit. In this way, it is believed that the Caradian Armed Forces will represent Caradian might and acquire new adherents to the Church of the Black Flame, which almost all soldiers in the Armed Forces are members of.
One facet of the Caradian Armed Forces is their policy on reserve units and compulsory service. All Caradian citizens (except those who are exempt for medical reasons) are required to serve four years in the military upon their completion of primary education. After these four years, they are allowed to return home; however, anyone who has served in the military in the past and is not over sixty five years old is considered to be on the reserve forces for the nation, and must report monthly to the nearest military command centre and participate in drill exercises and tests. If people are determined to have lost their discipline and skill over the years, they are subject to extra training after the test day to instill military training in them again. This effectively means that the entire Caradian population (except those who were crippled before their compulsory service) are in the reserve units.
Mercenary Policy

Following the opening of the country, then-reigning Duke Alecsi saw it as an opportunity, both to increase the nation's global presence, and to provide an extra source of income for the national treasury, to allow the military to be hired by other countries to fight by their side. This came with a promise to maintain neutrality in international ideological disputes when they do not concern the affairs of the Duchy.
