The Brazilian Armed Forces ((ポルトガル語:Forças Armadas Brasileiras), ) is the unified military organization comprising the Brazilian Army (including the Brazilian Army Aviation), the Brazilian Navy (including the Brazilian Marine Corps and Brazilian Naval Aviation) and the Brazilian Air Force.〔According to article 144 of the 1988 Brazilian Constitution, the para-military Military Police alongside the Military Firefighters Corps are constitutionally considered an auxiliary and potential reserve to the Army, though subordinate to the state governors. They can, however, be compelled to federal service under a statute similar to posse comitatus(). 〕 Brazil's armed forces are the third largest in the Americas, after the United States and Colombia, and the largest in Latin America by the level of military equipment, with 318,480 active-duty troops and officers.〔〔(Uma Nova Agenda Militar ) Revista Época. Retrieved on 16 April 2015.〕 With no serious external or internal threats, the armed forces are searching for a new role. They are expanding their presence in the Amazon under the Northern Corridor (Calha Norte) program. In 1994 Brazilian troops joined United Nations (UN) peacekeeping forces in five countries. Brazilian soldiers have been in Haiti since 2004 leading the United Nations Stabilization Mission (MINUSTAH).〔(Brazilian troops in Haiti ) 〕 The Brazilian military, especially the army, has become more involved in civic-action programs, education, health care, and constructing roads, bridges, and railroads across the nation. Although the 1988 constitution preserves the external and internal roles of the armed forces, it places the military under presidential authority. Thus, the new charter changed the manner in which the military could exercise its moderating power.〔(Information - Brazilian Army )〕 ==Organization== The Armed Forces of Brazil are divided into 3 branches:〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Brazilian Government (official text) ) See also: ("Brazilian Federal Constitution in English" ), text translated to English (unofficial).
