Romulan Guard

Romulan Guard
Government:	Romulan Star Empire
Homeworld:	Romulus
Central Leaders:	Praetor of the Romulan Star Empire Daise'Primus
Divisions:	Romulan Imperial Army Romulan Star Navy Phi'Tlaru

The Romulan Guard (Rihan: Morairi ih'Shiar) was the military force of the Romulan Star Empire. The Guard's forces were comprised of the Star Navy and the Imperial Army. The Phi'Tlaru served as the intelligence branch of the Guard, since military leaders could not always rely on the Tal Shiar. The Praetor served as the commander in chief of the Guard, but actual operation of the military was under the Daise'Primus.

Organization

The Romulan Guard operated under the auspices of the Star Empire, with the Praetor serving as the commander in chief. However, the Daise'Primus served as the actual overseer of the Guard, with a council of Primus serving as advisors and the heads of each branch. A Primus held the senior rank within their respective service (Draao'Prod for the army and Galae'Enriov for the navy). The Daise'Primus and the Primus Tal Diann could be from either branch.

Divisions

• Allhka ch'Havranha (Reman Irregulars)
