Military government

Short description: Government administered by military forces

A military government is any government that is administered by a military, whether or not this government is legal under the laws of the jurisdiction at issue or by an occupying power. It is usually administered by military personnel.

Military occupation

Military occupation, also called belligerent occupation or simply occupation, is temporary hostile control exerted by a ruling power's military apparatus over a sovereign territory that is outside the legal boundaries of that ruling power's own sovereign territory.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] The controlled territory is called occupied territory, and the ruling power is called the occupant.^[5] Occupation's intended temporary nature distinguishes it from annexation and colonialism.^[4]^[6] The occupant often establishes military rule to facilitate administration of the occupied territory, though this is not a necessary characteristic of occupation.^[7]
