Policing and Military

Moxistan doesn't have a formal military but does have a defense force named the Moxistani Defense Force for external defense. It consists entirely of a voluntarily recruited soldiers. Moxistan does not employ conscription due to the common belief among its people that any country that relies on it is using authoritarian measures to cover weakness and reflects a lack of faith in military capability. Moxistan instead offers benefits for joining the defense force with no term requirements, soldiers only being required to commit to service for months at a time. Military training is also available to all civilians with no requirement to service.

Moxistan doesn't have a traditional policing system. Instead, Moxistan has local defense agencies that are employed for policing. How these differ from conventional police is that people working in local defense agencies have no elevated legal protections like police do. Defense agents are tried as normal citizens in any situation force is used against a perpetrator and vice versa. This is to encourage violent force being used only when necessary and give citizens ability to defend themselves against unjust state violence.

Firearms and weapons are permitted for civilian ownership after receiving training to encourage defense against external threats and self-defense. People that complete this training also receive a free gun.
