Army inspectorates
The Räichsheer organizational structure consists of the Imperial Army Headquarters and three Inspectorates, which together contain Zusea's twelve divisions and two independent brigades. The 14th Inspectorate is responsible for guarding the Valourian border in far western Zusea, and organizing war preparations against the combined forces of Valourium and Arshavat. The 15th Inspectorate is responsible for the defense of the Zusian heartland, and guarding the nation's borders with Meriad, FRAUT, and Almia. The 18th Inspectorate meanwhile was formed during the Third Kyrossic War, and is today responsible for guarding the southern flank of the Amphian Compact in collaboration with the Redonian and Hyspanic armies. The forces of the 18th are primarily deployed within Kyrossia and also oversee Zusian peacekeeping efforts in the region.

The two independent brigades, the 9th and 17th Imperial Rifles brigades, are deployed around Zusea's northern borders with FRAUT and Meriad.
