In Finland, "armeijan" specifically denotes the Finnish Defence Forces, which are responsible for the country's territorial defense and security. The Finnish military is known for its conscription system, where male citizens are required to complete a period of military service.

It encompasses the soldiers, equipment, and operations associated with a national defense force.
