Summary/Abstract: Territorial defence in the Nordic countries has a long history and plays an important role in the security systems of these countries. It is a separate kind of armed force, so its presence not only complements and strengthens the existing military, but also improves internal and external security. The organization of territorial defence forces is strongly linked to the national security strategies and the geopolitical position of the Nordic countries. Nordic countries are developing territorial defense as another independent type of armed force. They successively reinforce their Home Guard – organizationally and financially. As a result, they have very strong territorial defense structures.
