National Guard (Nemzetőrség)
The National Guard is the oldest and still existing military force of Liberty Islands. It was established for the defence of Hungary in 1848. After the independence of Liberty Islands its mission was to secure the land of the islands and in the case of Hungarian revolution it would provide armed support. This idea is questioned as Liberty Islands is located thousands of kilometres from Hungary and can't send troops to the Carpathian Basion quickly. Today the National Guard has a two infantry regiments. The 1st Kossuth Lajos National Guard Regiment has the objective to secure Liberty Islands executive, legislative and judical organizations and to provide protocol appearance. Te 2nd National Guard Regiment is under the command of the Governor-president. The rest of the National Guard is a reserve force of another undisclosed number of regiments.
