Unified Island Police Force

The AHSCA Unified Police Forces also known as AHSCAn National Police Corps is the main law enforcement organ of AHSCA. Formed from militia forces with training from the police forces of Lamoni, Ganosia, Motokata, and Mokastana, policing in AHSCA was initially provided by multiple, independent police services. After the second invasion of the country by Red Tide2, the AHSCAn National Police Corps was formed by order of the AHSCAn National Congress in the name of the Duchess, merging the various police forces under the command of the Officer of Internal Affairs, and placing the militia under the control of the Officer of Defense.

Mission
The mission of the National Police Corps is to preserve public order, protect society, and guarantee enforcement of the laws. The National Police Corps is also responsible for protecting foreign diplomatic missions on AHSCAn soil, as well as protecting AHSCAn diplomatic missions abroad. The police do not deliberate or participate in partisan politics, beyond voting their conscience, like any other AHSCAn citizen. National Police Corps officers are armed with handguns, shotguns, and Tonfa, though specialist units (especially the Special Tactics and Rescue units) can and do use heavier weapons.

In time of war, the National Police Corps would serve as a rear-guard for the UISDF, evacuating non-essential civilians to safe zones, as well as acting as a reserve force for the UISDF, and maintaining the rule of law.

Divisions
The previous agencies which now make up the AHSCAn National Police Corps are composed of:


 * The Police General Administration and Logistics Office.
 * The Police International Liaison Office.
 * The Police Mounted Honor Guard Unit, also referred to as the Carabiniers.
 * The Directorate of National Drug Investigations.
 * The Criminal and Riot (C&R) Police.
 * The Border and Customs Police.
 * The Diplomatic Mission Police.
 * The Highway and Traffic Police.
 * The Air Police.
 * The Ducal and Governmental Lifeguard Unit.
 * The Special Tactics and Rescue units.
 * The National Police Academy.

The merger of these disparate police services has created a singular, more efficient police service, which has served to reduce crime of all types in AHSCA. Each AHSCAn island is divided into policing zones, and the National Police Corps has an office on each AHSCAn island. Each policing zone reports to the National Police Corps office on their respective island. Each island level police office reports to the National Police Corps headquarters, under the control of the Superintendent of the National Police Corps. The National Police Corps itself reports to the AHSCAn Officer of Interior Affairs.

 * Superintendent
