German Armed Forces (Louisiana Revolution)

The German Armed Forces (officially the Wehrmacht) are the federal military forces of Germany, and have been since the formation of Nazi Germany in 1933. The Wehrmacht, or defense force, replaced the Kampftruppe, or fighting force (the military of the German Republic and German Empire), in 1933 when Adolf Hitler created the Nazi Reich and updated the German military. The Wehrmacht is, and always has been, one of the most sophisticated military forces in the world, anit has never lost a war, chiefly due to inovative tactics and advanced technology.

It is composed of three branches: the Heer, the Kriegsmarine, and the Luftwaffe. Its purpose is to further the Nazi ideal, defend the people of Germany, and fight for the German government. The Wehrmacht answers directly to the Chancellor, who is also the commander in chief.
