The Internal Troops of Montesayette (Quebecshirite: Troupes Intérieures de Montesayette; TIM) are Montesayettean province-based internal military forces tasked with maintaining public security. It operates under the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Community. It integrates into the reserve components of the Montesayettean Defense Forces (ADM) when mobilized for federal missions.
The Internal Troops are constitutionally recognized as "the organized militia of Montesayette," serving as a crucial component of the ADM. Originating from a historical perspective, the Internal Troops were established to provide an indirect counterweight to the ADM. This created a layer of redundancy within the military structure to prevent militarism within the ADM. It also served as a fail-safe for the federal government in a coup d'état. Internal Troops units operate under the dual control of provincial governments and the federal government.
