Army of the People's Directorate

The Army of the People's Directorate comprises the regular armed forces of Cervera. They provide for the defense of Cerveran sovereignty and, where applicable, the promotion of Cerveran interests abroad in the form of humanitarian aid, peacekeeping and intervention in support of movements in Avalonia and elsewhere.

Established in 1925 to provide protection for National Directivist Party leadership and attendees at rallies and party functions, the Army of the People's Directorate comprised the bulk of the Popular Liberation Front of Cervera which waged the Cerveran Revolution from 1928 to 1934. Following Directivist victory in that conflict, the group supplanted the Army of the Cerveran Republic and assumed the role of the nation's armed forces.

Army of the People's Directorate advisors and expeditionary forces took part in the Arbenz Revolution, supporting United Front for Popular Resistance factions in their war against the Castillo government of the Federal Republic of Arbenz from 1976 until the conclusion of the war in 1991; at their peak, some 8,000 soldiers of the ADP were deployed to Arbenz, with approximately 30,000 taking part throughout the duration of the conflict. ADP forces also played a smaller role in the Veikan Civil War as soldiers at the Cerveran Embassy and consulates publicly declared their allegiances with the People's Red Front, skirmishing with Royalist forces who attempted to assault Cerveran diplomatic territory.
