The Colonial Self-Defense Forces (CSDF) is the unified armed forces of the United Colonies of Aldia that was established on the 1st of June 1619. Nominally it is controlled by the Colonial Military Administration however, the Political & Morale Commander of the United Colonies has final word on Aldia's military policy. The CSDF consists of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Maritime Defense Forces and the Colonial Guard, the latter being the largest component of the CSDF in terms of number of personnel. The primary tasks of the CSDF is to protect and preserve the territories of the United Colonies from both domestic and foreign enemies. Although the United Colonies has maintained a policy of non-interventionism in its foreign policy, it also implicitly reserves the right the use of armed forces and declarations of war to resolve international disputes.
