The Public Force (French: La Force Publique)[2] are the military force of Monaco. However, the country has a very limited military capability and depends almost entirely upon its larger neighbour, France, for defence.[3][4] In total, there are over 250 people employed as military personnel in some form.[5][6] There is no conscription in Monaco.

Its branches are the Compagnie des Carabiniers du Prince and the Corps des Sapeurs-Pompiers de Monaco.
