Kuva-i Inzibatiye

The Kuvâ-i İnzibâtiyye (Ottoman Turkish / Persian: قوا انضباطيّه , literally "Forces of Order"; Turkish: Hilafet Ordusu, or "Caliphate Army") was an army established on 18 April 1920 by the imperial government of the Ottoman Empire in order to fight against the Turkish National Movement in the aftermath of World War I. It was commanded by Süleyman Şefik Pasha.

The Kuvâ-i İnzibâtiyye was supported by the British so as to enforce British policy in the region and stabilize the remnants of the Ottoman Empire.
