Colonial Fleet
Colonial Fleet is the Federal/Union armed forces, composed of Colonial Army, Colonial Navy, and Colonial Marines.

Battlestars
The Twelve Colonies ratified the Articles of Colonization and perpetual Union on the condition that each would receive and be protected by a Battlestar. To this end, there were originally twelve Battlestars, each named after one of the Colonies. Today, there are one hundred ninety-two Battlestars, sixteen per Colony. However, these Battlestars are commanded by the Federal Colonial Fleet and not by the individual Colonies themselves.

Colonial Guard
The individual Colonies also maintain their own armed forces, independent of Colonial Fleet, and only answerable to, and commanded solely by, the establishing Colony. Generally, each Colony’s Guard is composed of four service branches, namely Army, Navy, Air Force (which includes the Colony’s Space Force), and Marines.
