Personnel
The head of the Aldurian armed forces is the President of the Republic, in his role as Commander in Chief. However, the Constitution puts civil and military government forces at the disposal of the Government (the executive cabinet of ministers chaired by the Prime Minister, who are not necessarily of the same political side as the president).
The Department of Defense oversees the military's funding, procurement, and operations. Prior to the adoption of the Constitution, Alduria relied a great deal on conscription to provide manpower for its military forces, in addition to a minority of professional career soldiers. During heated debates in the Constituent Assembly, libertarian, socialist, and some conservative factions successfully teamed up to ensure that a ban on conscription was included in the Constitution.
As of 1671, the Aldurian Armed Forces have total manpower of 559,004, and active personnel of 378,198.
It breaks down as follows:
- The Aldurian Army: 89,650
- The Aldurian Navy: 116,200
- The Aldurian Air Force: 48,680
- The Aldurian Coast Guard: 38,123
- The Aldurian Border Guard: 35,377
- The Aldurian Support Services: 50,168
The Aldurian reserve element is composed of two parts: the Operational Reserve and the Citizens Reserve. As of 1673 AN, the strength of the Operational Reserve is 658,200, and the Citizens Reserve is 575,787.
