National Guard (Landesgendarmerie)
The Landesgendarmerie, also known as the National Guard in some countries, is a military-oriented police force responsible for maintaining public order, border security, and transportation regulation. Typically composed of reservists or volunteer personnel, it operates under a government authority, often with a military background. They support civil authorities during emergencies, criminal investigations, and internal security operations. Their dual nature allows them to serve both as a military force and a law enforcement body, bridging the gap between military discipline and civil policing to ensure safety and order within the nation.
