National Gendarmerie

The National Gendarmerie is a military-led law enforcement agency responsible for public safety, border control, and maintaining order in many countries, often in rural or less-populated areas. It operates under national authority but has a military status, combining policing powers with military discipline. Its tasks include criminal investigation, traffic regulation, and community assistance, ensuring security and enforcing laws outside urban police jurisdictions. The Gendarmerie often collaborates with civilian police forces to uphold national security and public order.
