The current structure of the [[Army of Burgundie]] was codified in the [[Army of Burgundie Force Restructuring Act of 2003]]. It is divided into the Regular Army ([[Army of Burgundie#Metropole Forces|Metropole Forces]] and the [[Army of Burgundie#Foreign Legion|Foreign Legion]]) and the [[Army of Burgundie#Legion of Volunteers and Levies|Legion of Volunteers and Levies]]. Some constituent countries further maintain a state defense forces ([[Faramount]] and [[Nostrestran]]), as a type of reserve that can be federalized through the Title 10 process. The Faramount Royal Defense Force is "organized", meaning that it is an armed force, the Nostrestran Militia System is "unorganized", meaning that all able-bodied citizens (of all genders) may be eligible to be called into military service.
==Overview==
 
The Army of Burgundie is also divided into several functional Corps. These Corps are headed by a school to maintain consistency of training and standards across the Regular Army, the Legion of Volunteers and Levies, and the state defense forces. While the total list of branches is exhaustive the most famous Corps are:
*Army Corps of Aviation ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: Corps Strates d'Aviacion)

Some constituent countries further maintain a state defense forces (Faramount and Nostrestran), as a type of reserve that can be federalized through the Title 10 process. The Faramount Royal Defense Force is "organized", meaning that it is an armed force, the Nostrestran Militia System is "unorganized", meaning that all able-bodied citizens (of all genders) may be eligible to be called into military service.

The Army of Burgundie is also divided into several functional Corps. These Corps are headed by a school to maintain consistency of training and standards across the Regular Army, the Legion of Volunteers and Levies, and the state defense forces. While the total list of branches is exhaustive the most famous Corps are:

  • Army Corps of Aviation (Burg: Corps Strates d'Aviacion)
  • Army Corps of Engineering (Burg: Corps Strates d'Hyposthenie)
