Still unfinished? Like Midnight Eclipse, then: but mine startedearlier than this fic!Oh, our Armed Forces? Well, we have the Carabinieri, the Army, the Air Force and the Navy. Of course the Army takes care of the land, the Air Force of the air, and the Navy of the sea.I don't know about other countries, but the police are not counted as part of the Armed Forces here because that's a civilian corp instead of a military one.For obvious reasons, the other three forces (Army, Air Force, Navy) are only fully active during wartime: in peace-time, the defence of the nation is formally entrusted to the Carabinieri (for example, they're employed in several international missions against terrorists, etc.). In practice, and in everyday's life, the Carabinieri double as a police force: they go around with their fancy uniform , patrolling the streets and fighting crime along with the police. The only difference with the police is, in fact, that the Carabinieri arepart of the military forces, so they'll have to fight for the nation if a war ever breaks out.Also, the police are not as present in the country as the Carabinieri are: the police are only found in the bigger cities, whereas the Carabinieri have at least one station inItalian city, town or even small village.This is why I said they are likely to have a much better bond with the population than the police have.
