The Côtois Combined Armed Forces are the military forces of the Federation of the Southern Coast of Lapérouse. The armed forces consist of six uniformed service branches which includes the militia-reserves and maritime policing. The C.C.A.F. origins come the official end of the Unification Wars in 1920, with the newly formed Federation reorganized the previous Provisional Defense Force into a more unified fighting force. The C.C.A.F. the Directeurs d'état-major militaires conjoints (Codexian: Joint Military Directors of Staff), acts as the body of the most senior ranking uniformed leaders within the Ministry of Defense, with the FPM acting as both the Directing Chair and Commander-in-Chief as outline in the constitution.
The C.C.A.F maintains tenth-to-ninth largest military budget in the world, and estimated to be 15th largest by number of military personnel.
