Description
***VERSION 2.0***

Created for use as part of a work-in-progress anime/manga universe: 3D High.

Takes place in a universe where mythical creatures are real and deadly threats to life and limb, and there are multiple dimensions populated by other sentient beings aside from humanity.

Our dimension has endured the devastating consequences of being suddenly connected to other dimensions, destabilization of the fabric of reality across the world, killing billions, and rendering large swaths of land unsafe for human habitation to this day.

--------------------------------
INSIGNIA

Standard insignia, identifying military assets from all three branches of the Federation Defence Forces.

The left-most is the traditional variant of the insignia that is most commonly found on service uniforms, combat uniforms, sides of military vehicles, aircraft and ships that are taking part in a peacekeeping mission (the peacekeepers must be easily spotted and identified). It may also be found printed on supply containers, documents and military installations.

In the middle is the 'star' version that is most commonly found, in badge or printed form, on field caps, helmets, and service gear worn by Defence Force personnel in the field or on parade.

The right-most is the subdued variant that is most commonly found on field equipment of Defence Force personnel and vehicles, being coloured to match the current camouflage, in operations where stealth takes priority over identification.

--------------------------------
SYMBOLISM

- The seven stars are carried over from the state flag, representing the 7 continents of the world.
- The swooping dove is a central feature on the state flag, standing for freedom and peace. Its glare represents the determination of mankind to secure freedom if peace is no longer possible.
- The wreaths symbolize the ideals of peace that the Federation is willing to fight for to preserve.
- The seven pointed star represents the 7 areas of responsibility that the globe is divided into. Within each, regional commanders have the authority to conduct and plan military operations.
- The 49 smaller rays represent the first 49 divisions initially established under the Defence Force chain of command.

ABOUT

Upon the founding of the Federation in 2030 CE, the United Nations Peacekeeper Corps was expanded and renamed the United Nations Federation Defence Forces (UNFDF), evolving into a multinational military force, independent of member state governance, under the administration of the Federation Department of Defence. The Defence Forces have jurisdiction in all member state territories to guard against any military threats to mankind.

Recruits are drawn directly from the civilian populations of all member states, and from national militaries. All recruits are volunteers, and are evaluated for the ability to put nationalism aside for the good of humanity as a whole. They are trained in tactics from militaries around the world and utilize humanity's most advanced weapons technology.

The Secretary-General, as commander-in-chief, can direct the Defence Forces into action upon convening the Emergency Executive Council if immediate action is necessary. However, the Secretary-General may be required resign his post following the authorization of the use of force (as written in Article III in the revised UN Constitution). This is to safeguard against the possibility that the Secretary-General will continue to abuse their position as commander-in-chief. The Secretary-General may retain his post if a super-majority of Global Parliament members vote to overturn the resignation penalty.

The Defence Forces primarily serve as a shield against constant rift-mutant incursions that have plagued humanity ever since the Rift Crisis of 2015 CE, with ground force garrisons protecting population centres in close proximity to Exclusion Zones, while conducting frequent patrols within the Exclusion Zones and outer Rift-zones themselves.

The air force branch of the Defence Forces devote most of their resources to patrolling air corridors in close proximity to Rift-zones, protecting commercial flights from attack by airborne rift-mutants.

The naval branch primarily combats piracy in more dangerous shipping lanes near lawless areas, while protecting cargo ships that pass through shipping routes that run close to maritime Rift-zones.

Member states retain the right to maintain national militaries, but they must submit to regional or federal authority if requested, and may be mobilized under the command of a Federation general officer to support Federation Defence Force operations.
