The Urcean Armed Forces are nominally led by the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]], though the [[Constitution of Urcea]] provides that the regular command of the military is under the [[Procurator]] in their role as [[Ranks_in_the_Urcean_Armed_Forces|''Magister Militum'']]. The Urcean Armed Forces are under the administration of the [[Ministry for the Armed Services (Urcea)|Ministry for the Armed Services]], whose Minister also serves as Lord Marshal. The Lord Marshal is nominated from among the officer corps of the Armed Forces, traditionally of [[Ranks_in_the_Urcean_Armed_Forces#Field.2C_Flag_and_Staff_Officers|Flag Officer]] rank, by the [[Procurator]] and approved by the [[Concilium Daoni]]. | |||
The military chain of command flows from the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]] to the [[Procurator]], ensuring civilian control of the military. Within the [[Ministry for the Armed Services (Urcea)|Ministry for the Armed Services]] is the Office for the Army, Office for the Navy, and Office for the Air Force, civilian led entities that oversee the coequal military service branches organized within and provide for their upkeep. The military departments and services are responsible for organizing, training, and equipping forces, with the actual chain of command flowing through the unified combatant commands. | |||
The Council of the Lord Marshal is the senior-most military body in the Armed Forces and provides guidance to the Lord Marshal and officially receive orders from the Lord Marshal on the conduct and direction of the military, but in effect most of these directives come from civilian officials within the [[Ministry for the Armed Services (Urcea)|Ministry for the Armed Services]] or the [[Procurator]] in the Lord Marshal's name. It is led by the Lord Marshal, who is both the military head of the Armed Forces and always holds the rank of [[Ranks_in_the_Urcean_Armed_Forces#Honorific_Officers|Lecáti Princeps, Návarce Princeps, or Air Návarce Princeps]] and is the civilian Minister of the [[Ministry for the Armed Services (Urcea)|Ministry for the Armed Services]]. The Council consists of the Lord Marshal, three Deputy Lord Marshals (one for each part of the Armed Forces), and the Senior Enlisted Advisor. The Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Lord Marshal is the most senior enlisted member in the Armed Forces. | |||
