Divisions

The Qardaishan Armed Forces is comprised of the Army, Navy, and Janissary corps. The army is responsible for the cyber security of the nation as well as the land borders of the nation. Despite being landlocked, Qardasha does have a navy comprised of a couple warships (RC) and multiple planes and drones (RC). The Navy watches over the lakes of the nation as well as primarily dealing with reconnaissance and aerial combat. The Janissaries are the personal guards of the Sultan who are considered to be the elite version of the Army.

Army Divisions

The Army is comprised of one corps, the Imperial Army Corps. The Imperial Army was historically personally trained by the sultan, with many of the members eventually becoming Janissaries.

Naval Divisions

The Navy is also comprised of 2 parts, the Navy Seals - an elite group of individuals who were hand trained by Fleet Admiral Aziz Pasha (before he was honorably discharged from the armed forces), and the actual navy that was for the most part controlled by Fleet Admiral Aziz Pasha.

Janissary Divisions

The Royal Qardaishan Janissary Corps, which is seen as the elite form of the Imperial Army, as well as being the personal guards of the sultan is comprised of 2 corps.

Beylik Janissary Corps

The Beylik Janissary Corps is the majority of the corps. Every Janissary is a Beylik Janissary, however only a handful of the Beyliks are apart of the more elite class of janissaries. The Beylik Janissaries are primarily tasked with the protections and service to the sultan. Like Pashas, they execute his will, send out orders and messages, and defend the sultan in civil areas and in times of war.

Zulfiqar Janissary Corps

The Zulfiqar Janissary Corps is the more elite version of the janissaries. Their name stems from the sword of Ali ibn Abi Talib - who is seen as one of the strongest of the companions of the Prophet Muhammad - the Zulfiqar. Zulfiqar Janissaries are primarily tasked with defending the sultan by maintaining an offensive position. These are the janissaries who go out and fight during times of war and often act as policemen during times of peace.

Leadership

The entirety of the Qardaishan Armed Forces is led by Sultan Orzan bin Muhammad, with one of the other names for the Army being "The Sultan's Grand Army". Other than that, The imperial Army is led by a "Pasha of the Army" which is a Pasha handpicked to lead the entire army. The Pasha of the Army is Muhammad Nafiz bin Hassan. The Naval Forces of Qardasha is controlled by a Fleet Admiral, however, the position is currently vacant. The Janissary Corps is also controlled by the sultan himself.

Aghas and Pashas Explained

An Agha is a general, there are currently 3 Aghas:

Padishah Agha - "General of the Imperial Army", usually taken by the Sultan himself.
Boluk Agha - "General of the Corps", another word for Pasha of the army.
Ropia Agha - "General of Ropia", the current leader of the Emirate of Ropia's subdivision

A Pasha is another word for Marshal, Pashas are basically viziers who also work in the army, due to their high government and military ranking, there is very few. Despite having the abilities to command higher ranks than them (except the sultan), Pashas have their own rankings.
