Military
The Kowloon Armed Military, controlled by the Department of Militia, consists of 4 professional and distinct branches: the National Infantry, which consists of the Infantry, Paratrooper and the Special Forces divisions; the Navy Divison, which consists of both the Marines and the Navy Officer divisons; the Air Force, which works closely with the Paratrooper divison, and the Space Force, which is the largest of all the different branches. The current commander-in-chief is General Richard 'Largeballs' Dongulin, whom all members of the Military need to respect and be loyal to. The Military is supposed to protect NKB, and have done so on various occasions, like the Kowloon Civil War, the First and Second Asian Wars, and the Xuddur War.
Currently, 19.7% of NKB's budget is spent on the military, which amounts to 31.914 trillion dollars. NKB has an active personnel count of around 150 million, with a further 195 million in reserves, of which around one fourth go into the Space Divison.
The military also works closely with the police force.
