Baliscan Armed Forces

The Baliscan Armed Forces (Forças Armadas Baliscanas; Fuerzas Armadas Baliscanas; Baliscano Forze Armate), or FAB/BFA, previous referred to as the Baliscan Defense Forces, FBD (until 2012), are the armed forces of the Baliscan Confederation. The Baliscan Armed Forces were formerly established in 1826 following the Congress of the Confederation which established the Baliscan nation. Until 2014 the FAB/BFA was not permitted to deploy abroad in support of an ally. In recent years they have been engaged in international peacekeeping operations, in accordance to the Baliscan constitution, which bars the Baliscan Armed Forces from participating in or carrying out offensive actions.
