History
The CMIA was founded in 2009, one year after the reinstatement of the Trawacan Armed Forces.
Command, control and organization
The CMIA comes under the direct control of the Secretary of Defense and the President. As it is a DoD organization, it is mainly used to provide the three branches of the military intelligence about possible adversaries, foreign military technology and signal intelligence.
The CMIA also provides intelligence to the Special Forces Regiment and the Coast Guard.
Director of the Military Intelligence Agency
The director of the CMIA is Colonel Reese Norton Montierth. Colonel Montierth has been the Director of the CMIA since its inception in 2009.
Intelligence sharing
The Military Intelligence Agency shares relevant intelligence with nations in Greater Dienstad as a means of ensuring regional security and strengthening international bonds, as well as fulfilling the Norheim Doctrine. A large portion of the intelligence the CMIA receives comes from foreign intelligence agencies.
Services
The CMIA is considered the main intelligence agency of Trawach. While there are several minor intelligence agencies, the CMIA has primary intelligence jurisdiction around the republic.
The CMIA provides the military with the following forms of intelligence:
- Cryptography
- Disinformation
- Electronic warfare
- Covert espionage
- Counter-intelligence (COUNTINT)
- Medical intelligence (MEDINT)
- Meteorological intelligence (METINT)
- Signals intelligence (SIGINT)
- Human intelligence (HUMINT)
- Measurement and signature intelligence (MASINT)
- Imagery intelligence (IMINT)
- Technical intelligence (TECHINT)
- Geospatial intelligence (GEOINT)
- Financial intelligence (FININT)
Equipment
For the most part, CMIA agents and operatives are at liberty to use any of the military equipment owned by Trawach and the Department of Defense so long as it is pertinent to their mission. However, the CMIA has a fleet of specialized aircraft and UAV's to gather intelligence without having to take from the Air Force motor pool.

Domestic spying allegations
Unlike many other nations' intelligence services, the CMIA has the authority to operate on Trawacan soil and routinely utilizes their signals intelligence equipment to monitor incoming and outbound telephone, radio, internet and satellite transmissions for keywords that are considered suspicious. This has led to allegations that the CMIA and Trawacan government are engaged in privacy invasion operations against the general populace. The government and CMIA have vehemently denied such allegations, stating that their monitoring is strictly non-intrusive and only passively monitors everyday communications.
