Tajaran Military Structures
This page outlines the factional military structures of the Tajara on planet Adhomai.
Ground Forces on Adhomai
Republican Army (People's Republic of Adhomai)
Commander in Chief
The Commander in Chief of the Republican Army is an office held by the President of the People's Republic of Adhomai (Currently President Njadrasanukii Hadii). The Commander in Chief is responsible for the grand strategy of the military. He appoints all ministers in the Ministry of Defense to carry out his policies.
Ministry of Defense
The Ministry of Defense houses the Ministers in charge of each branch of military service as well as their adjutants. They define the military districts under order from the Commander in Chief, as well as appoint staff to manage them. It is the duty of the ministers to translate the policies of the Commander in Chief into functional war plans and operational strategy.
Military Districts
Military Districts are administrative districts based on geography. Each military district is named after each continent on Adhomai, a relic of the interwar period when the People's Republic owned the entire planet uncontested. Appointees to the districts administrate the recruitment, supply, and organization of all troops within their theater of war, as well as designate the fronts of conflicts. Each military district also houses a theater commander who manages all of the fronts under them.
Fronts
Fronts are areas of operations designated by military districts where field armies are deployed. They exist along large geographical sections of each continent, and are each lead by a frontal commander.
Field Armies
There are currently 133 field armies (or armies for short) in the Republican Army. Unlike other contemporary armies in 2458, the Republican Army lacks the ability to have corps level formations. The mass defection in the Adhomai Liberation Army's attempted coup d'etat of the Republic lead to a gutting of the Army's officers. Instead, clusters of divisional formations are grouped together into armies and sent to battle in these inflexible clumps. These circumstances have lead many to view the Republican Army as an inexorable horde which fights all its battles by numbers and attrition, however officials of the People's Republic are quick to right this off as humans projecting their history onto Tajaran politics. They insist that the People's Republic is filled with capable officers and professional soldiers.

Field-Marshal
The current Field-Marshal of the New Kingdom of Adhomai is Field-Marshal Rrhazhal Zarkradar'Akhan, who was appointed by King Azunja of the New Kingdom of Adhomai. The position is held by appointment from the King, who is also able to take the position for himself if he so chooses. The Field-Marshal has supreme authority over the Imperial Adhomian Army, managing all theaters of operation and giving orders to the Mrraka'te'almalik (Will of King) nobles and their retinues. Unlike the Adhomai Liberation Army or the Republican Army, the Imperial Army is highly centralized and relies heavily on the orders of the Field-Marshal to coordinate with other units.
Mrraka'te'almalik (The Will of the King)
The Imperial Army has three Mrraka'te'almalika (Wills of the King) commanding its forces. Each will serves a role similar to a theater commander, controlling all the Jabrut Almumalik which they raised as levies from their lands within the New Kingdom and giving orders to all nobles who owe fealty to them. The positions are always formally held by grand dukes, however they often appoint commanders to rule in their stead if they are unable to fill the role with all orders signed as "By the Will of the King."
