Description

The Gendarmerie of Siddar City is the official body under the Lord Protector that is responsible for the governance of Siddar City, as opposed to the Army of the Republic which governs the nation as a whole.

The Gendarmerie is led by the Sergeant-at-Arms, who reports directly to the Lord Protector, rather than to the general staff of the Army as is traditional for other settlements. Inasmuch as the Republic is driven by Siddar City, the division of the national and city governments by Urwyn Ludovyc is considered to have been a stroke of forward-thinking ingenuity, as it has allowed the common good of the Republic to prevail over purely local interests.

The Gendarmerie is internally divided into multiple divisions, each responsible for a particular aspect of the various services provided by the city government. All citizens of Siddar City are expected to serve in either the Army or the Gendarmerie, if only temporarily, which provides a steady stream of applicants from which the talented and qualified are selected for well-paid and respected positions. High ranking positions are filled largely through merit, and the Gendarmerie is considered a model of good governance that has been copied by many subject settlements.
