The Constitution of 2016 provides that Quetzenkel may "create for itself a force devoted to national defense" and that said defense forces "may not participate in actions of a military nature outside of Quetzenkel except for under the joint command of allied efforts", which primarily includes joint efforts under the [[Nysdra Sea Treaty Association]]. The Quetzeni Royal Defense Force (QRDF) serves as Quetzenkel's national military under these provisions, and the mission of the QRDF is centered upon the defense of Quetzenkel, both in a traditional military sense but also in the capacity of Template:WP and border security. The QRDF, as of March 2017, has 250,000 enlisted soldiers spread throughout three branches.

The QRDF, as of March 2017, has 250,000 enlisted soldiers spread throughout three branches. Due to its size, Quetzenkel is the only Cronan nation nation in NSTA with independent military operation in the event of war, and the only nation not part of the [[Nysdra_Sea_Treaty_Association#Defense_Coordination_Initiative_(DCI)|Defense Coordination Initiative]]. During the [[Final War of the Deluge]], the QRDF saw extensive fighting and had the distinction of being the only Cronan NSTA member to defeat [[Varshan]]i ground forces in an engagement that did not have the participation of the Urcean [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal and Imperial Army]].


The structure of the Quetzeni Royal Defense Force's military hierarchy largely emulates that of the Armed Forces of the Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea. Like in Urcea, the QRDF is cabinet-controlled, and the Chancellor - in consultation with the King of Quetzenkel - is responsible for making decisions for the deployment and use of the QRDF. Like Urcea, the QRDF is divided into three primary branches:
